5 Ideas for Incorporating Ethical Goods to Your Current Wardrobe

1. Support Ethical Brands - there are many options nowadays for shopping ethically that won't break the bank. We carry many different ethical brands at www.ubuntugoods.com.

2. Buy vintage or second hand - There is an amazing second hand clothing store near me in Portage, MI that will schedule a personal consultation to help you put together outfits. There are also cool new websites like thredup.com that sell secondhand apparel at discounted prices.

3.Choose quality over quantity. Many of our new customers are surprised by the quality of our ethically handmade products that we sell...but it's no surprise to us. You may pay a little more, but these kind of pieces will be staples for years to come and are made from quality materials that will actually last.

4. Take inventory of what you have before shopping - If you have a lots of button down shirts and you want to dress them down for casual wear, grab a pair of leggings and you have a whole new outfit!

If you have lots of t-shirts that are just sitting there because its negative 4 degrees outside, grab a cardigan or sweater that can spice them up!

There are so many ways to incorporate the clothes you already have- have fun with it!

5. Keep an eye out for larger brands making ethical changes. Adidas is launching a new shoe and swimwear line that is made from ocean plastic pollution. We need to support these kinds of changes in bigger brands and let them know we want to see more ethical changes in the future.
