Green Suits, Dryerballs, and Organic Cotton: The Budget Ecoist
Check out the latest green posts from our new blog, The Budget Ecoist!
— We’ve already talked about the uber-trendy cut-out one piece bathing suit, but how about suits made out of recycled materials? Unfortunately, you won’t be seeing these on the runways yet, but going green is a move that the Earth (and your budget will appreciate). The Budget Ecoist introduced us to suits made out of repurposed plastic bottles, recycled fabrics, and more.
—Think dryer sheets are a waste? We do too, and that’s why we love The Budget Ecoist’s post on Nellie’s Dryerballs. They cut down on drying time of your clothes, and are much more cost effective! You don’t have to buy fabric softener or dryer sheets. Read about Paige’s tests and see for yourself.
—Green fashion. The term combines two great loves: being eco-friendly and looking great. Check out this compilation of pieces that YouDeserve, an online store full of eco-friendly, affordable fashion, offers up on their site. Dress head to toe in fabrics like organic cotton and bamboo. Yes, bamboo. YouDeserve is even having a sale right now.
