Chic Without Guilt (Slate.com)

Patty and Sandy Stonesifer have an article on Salon.com that reminds me of the sustainable style challenge I gave myself a while ago.Back during the holidays in 2007, I set out to assemble an ethical dressy ensemble for my daughter. (For the results, see the update post.) My experiment was on a much smaller scale - a single outfit, not a wardrobe. We built upon a thrift store skirt, and the Stonesifers went retail all the way. But their article shows, once again, that there ARE options out there, especially online.

The comments on Salon are also interesting, and food for much though and future blog posts.
