Fair trade summer fashion

I've been looking online at some of the high street stores to see what fair trade summer clothes they have (I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks, woo hoo). I like shopping online because it's easy and less stressful than trapsing around shops getting hot and bothered.

To my disappointment I couldn't really find anything. Topshop did have a few items, a number of which were from People Tree but I would rather go to the People Tree site directly as there is much more choice.

I guess I'm feeling disappointed that there isn't much available from the high street. I'm going to keep looking anyway and will let you know if I find anything fab.

Great trouser offer

You're going to have to act fast to take advantage of this great offer from People Tree ending tonight.

They are giving 30% off their summer trouser range, the trousers really do look great and even offer petite sizes which is fantastic for me being a debatable 5' 3".

Super fair trade tees

Check out Fair and Bear, the site is pretty similar to Threadless in that you (yes you) can submit your own t-shirt designs and get paid money stuffs if they are printed.

If like me you lack in design ability then you can peruse t-shirts, score some of the designs and of course buy the t-shirts. The big advantage that Fair and Bear have is that they are printing the designs on fair trade cotton tees plus you won't get smacked with an import duty as they are based in the UK unlike Threadless who are in the US.
