The Best Travel Pants: Athleta Headlands Hybrid Tight Review | Fairly Southern

When I learned recently that Athleta is now a Certified B Corporation, I freaked. out. I had actually never shopped at Athleta before and only vaguely knew what they were all about, but I was over the moon excited to finally have an ethical big box store at our local mall!

A couple of weeks before my trip to Belize, I realized that my wardrobe was a bit lacking in outdoorsy gear. I needed some athletic tops, and I also wanted to find some cute, quick-dry athletic pants that I could wear out into the jungle but also feel good about wearing to dinner later in the day.

I get cold as soon as the temperature drops below 73 degrees, so I have immediately begun to transition my wardrobe to sweaters and my plans inside to the couch.

How to Buy Ethical, Sustainable Jeans | Fairly Southern

**Updated 2/1/19 to include J.Crew and Madewell fair trade jeans.**

When I first got into ethical fashion, jeans were not at the top of my shopping list. Because jeans tend to last longer than other clothing pieces, I find myself shopping for them less frequently. But since they are more of an investment piece, I try to be extra thoughtful about my purchase when I do shop for jeans. I want to find good quality, flattering jeans since I will be wearing them for years.

In this post, I’m sharing three different ways to shop ethically for jeans.  Whether you’re on a budget or have tons of money to spend, I can help!  Read More

Searching for (and Finding) Ethically Made Beach Towels | Fairly Southern

Shopping for ethically made clothes has become second nature for me, but every now and then I realize I need to shop for something that I’ve never thought about before from a fair trade/eco-friendly/sustainable perspective. I had one of those weird moments last summer when I realized that Wes and I really needed a couple of beach towels.  Could I possibly find some that were ethically made? I set out to try!
