5 Ways to Spot Fast Fashion ECO CHIC

    • Society & Culture

195: One of the most common pitfalls when we're working to become more conscious consumers is figuring out if the clothing we're buying is fast fashion. I'm breaking down five tried-and-true guidelines for us as we examine brands and think more deeply about our purchases. We're also walking through examples of greenwashing campaigns (cough cough, H&M Conscious) and discussing the juicy news of Kourtney Kardashian's appointment as Sustainability Ambassador for Boohoo (lol).

More resources for us:
