Change Your Underwear!
A new favorite thing (and legal TGAAD purchase): PACT underwear. A “Hanky Panky” die hard, I’m pretty picky in this department, but PACT’s functional fashion and eco-friendly manufacturing has won me over.
PACT’s motto: CHANGE STARTS WITH YOUR UNDERWEAR. Not only are PACT panties incredibly comfy (and VERY sexy, especially those men’s boxer briefs), they’re made from organic cotton, sustainably manufactured and 10% of every purchase goes to a non-profit.
Started by ecopreneurs Jason Kibbey and Jeff Denby, designed by Yves Behar and based in Berkeley, CA, PACT has created a beautiful line with an impressive supply chain that supports organic cotton farmers, promotes responsible labor practices and makes positive change (from your body to the world’s).
All good from the inside out!

The past couple weeks my computer’s internet page and I have become best friends as I have scoured the World Wide Web looking for fashionable, eco-friendly clothing and accessory brands that are made in the US or fairly traded. With the help of Eco Stiletto and other sites, I have compiled a list of incredible lines that you are sure to love; and it will only keep growing as the summer goes on! Check back every day for a new one, and let the conscious shopping begin…or begin in 85 days, at least.

- Produced in L.A.
- “Doie was born from the idea that it is possible to be stylish and comfortable while still helping to protect the environment. Each versatile piece is made from earth friendly fabrics such as bamboo jersey, organic cotton, organic wool, or 100% silk.”
Designed by a Parson’s school graduate (yes, the same one from Project Runway), you’d expect Doie to be effortlessly chic, and it does not disappoint. The classy silk shirts of the NYC and Paris Collections will always be in demand and the Los Angeles and California Collections offer summery pieces, perfect for the beach or a Saturday afternoon with the family. This is the ultimate find; run, don’t walk. Earlier collections are not necessarily to my taste, and certainly not for the fashionably-safe, but I encourage you to take a look if only to admire the designs. The website includes write ups on all the fabric used, so you know exactly what you are wearing and where it comes from.

- Most items have incredible sale prices, almost reminiscent of Old Navy or H&M. Get it before they are all snatched up!
- Available in 21 states and a variety of online stores, all found on the website.
