H&M goes green



Attention bargain shoppers, no more excuses, you can officially afford to be eco-friendlyH&M recently announced its new Conscious collection, which is not only made from environmentally conscious materials – it is also fabulous.  This isn’t their only sustainable project; WWD’s February 3rd issue divulged that H&M's goal is to manufacture their products with all organic and sustainable fabrics by 2020.  They are currently also one of the world’s largest buyers of organic cotton, and are seeking "to increase the volumes by at least 50% each year until 2013” (www.hm.com).  They even have environmental requirements for their suppliers (see link below).  Call me crazy, but this makes me REALLY EXCITED.

Check out the Conscious collection, in stores April 14!

Happy eco shopping!
