Sustainable fashion has been on my mind for a while now and I am excited to bring you some of my favorite sustainable, ethical and eco friendly clothing brands for summer!

My word for 2019 was intention—intention, not perfection…with my choices of how I spend my time, money, resources, what I say yes to and what brands I purchase. I have been very careful and intentional purchasing mostly only organic cotton baby clothing for Remington, but finding sustainable, ethical and eco-friendly clothing for women is a bit harder. 

Fashion is the third highest polluting industry in the world! SO much waste happens when it comes to our clothing, shoes and fashion purchases—not only affecting our pocket books but greatly impacting the environment!

I rounded up some of my favorite sustainable fashion brands that are making a difference in the industry!

Should I share my capsule wardrobe? Tell me in the comments below!
