It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia

Philadelphia is doing a great job when it comes to becoming a “green” city. Even the show based around our city, Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia, enables the cast to wear eco-friendly clothing. Sub-Urban Riot provides the cast with organic tees. Their shirts “combine art and bold-styling with high-end basics.” If you want to find some of these same shirts visit link: http://www.Suburbanriot.com SubUrbanRiot.com.

Jump On the Bandwagon

Philly can become even a “greener” city if everyone decides that they will make their wardrobe a little more like the cast of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. This important goal can be accomplished if, the next time you go shopping, you try to look for something that is organic and stylish. In order to help make this transition a little easier, the following will provide you with a few ideas that I have discovered…

In Style

It is great when we are able to find eco-friendly clothing lines in the Philadelphia area, but it is even better when the designers are one of our own Philadelphia residents. Toggery by Kate D’Arcy is made from 100% organic and sustainable fabrics and has a style that is right in line with today.

How is this eco-friendly line made to be so “green”? Well, the clothing is made from organic cotton, bamboo, and modal, and the dyes used to make the line very colorful and exotic are low impact reactive dyes. This means it uses less energy, less chemicals and produces less waste. Talk about creativity when it comes to making a line of clothing!

The clothes not only fit in with today’s styles but they also add a couple of pieces that one may have never thought to add to their wardrobe. You can find out more at link: http://www.toggerycollection.com ToggeryCollection.com . If you want to purchase or just try on some of Toggery by Kate D’Arcy’s collection, a few stores in the area to visit include: The Closet, Arcadia, Vagabond, and Sevilla Smith.

Productivity while Purchasing

It is wonderful when people begin to care about the environment they live in and become more socially conscious by purchasing eco-friendly clothing. It is even better when someone purchases organic clothing and plants a tree at the same time. Buddhiwear has made this possible for its shoppers.

Buddhiwear is an organic clothing line made from soft organic cotton. Every time you purchase a piece of clothing from Buddhiwear you save one-third of a pound of chemicals. In addition, they will plant a tree in honor of your purchase.

Buddhiwear’s style is excellent for the entire family—children, men, and woman. Coordinating outfits while going on family outings is definitely “in” this year, and it’s fun as well. Buddhiwear has the perfect outfits for doing just that. They have many different clothing styles and also provide an important focus on yoga for everyone.

You Design

Remember those pizza places where you could create your own Pizza? Well this is a little different, but you still are able to be the creator. Spreadshirt.com allows you to design your own T-shirts.

They make available organic, bamboo, and hemp fabrics to ensure the new designers of today are also staying socially conscious. Also, it is possible to find clothing that is produced right in Pennsylvania; so we can continue to help our community and state grow! If you have a great idea, not only for yourself to wear but also a concept that you think others might like to express, SpreadShirt.com allows its designers to sell their ideas.
