Scarf outfit

Sweatshirt: Alternative Apparel (sweatshop-free) | Scarf: Handmade Expressions (fair trade) | Ring: Handmade Expressions (fair trade) | Earrings: World Finds (similar) (fair trade) | Skirt: H&M | Boots: Old Navy

I love being able to group a few sustainable pieces together to make a great fall outfit. I recently won the scarf and the cocktail ring in a contest by Austin-based Handmade Expressions, and I have a feeling they’ll be a big part of my wardrobe this winter.

I’ve already featured the Alternative Apparel sweatshirt once, but since I’ll pretty much be living in it for the next three months I figured I’d share it again. I love this maxi skirt from H&M, and I’m plotting where I can get a fair trade or sweatshop-free version.

If you’re a fan of fair trade, check out the Fair Tuesday Pinterest contest! Fair Tuesday is a movement to encourage consumers to make thoughtful, ethical purchases during the holiday season. Head to the contest page to find out how you can win $500 in fair trade items by pinning sustainable gift ideas! The deadline is November 27.
