Also, the two-colour tights remind me of an old pair that I have from American Apparel that I need to dig out of the depths of my closet and resurrect.

I don't like turtlenecks (overdid it in junior high) so mock neck are the perfect balance between neck covered/revealed.

No fancy dresses or skirts, just incredibly plain ones, and everything was crazy expensive but I assume that's because of the exchange rate. I was put off of buying their stuff because of their marketing campaigns, not just because their photos looked like cheap porn but at a time many of themwere made to look...clearly underage. Like a half naked girl touching herself on a busted ass couch with no make up on but her hair was in pigtails and ribbons and she didn't look a day over 13. I showed it to my friends and it was very offputting. <br /><br />It's hard to find ethically made things in Canada, unless you're willing to pay a premium at indie boutiques, but that doesn't always mean quality. I had perused a number of boutiques on my vacation last year to see many poorly made garments that were from Italy or Germany, or some place you'd expect to get good products from and not a cheapo linen dress for $250 CAD! Sewing isn't much better. Other than being expensive I have no idea where the fabric comes from, who made it and under what conditions. :/Ladyfairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402600337611206195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374940737527468599.post-88705810362306458862017-01-26T23:50:22.623-08:002017-01-26T23:50:22.623-08:00I usually by my basics in C&A, it's even c...I usually by my basics in C&A, it's even cheaper, than H&M, but the quality is fairly good. I don't have too many options since these are the only two stores, that carry basic stuff, but I hate H&M to guts. Ethically made basics are a far-off dream here...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374940737527468599.post-30259307420957880222017-01-26T20:40:29.225-08:002017-01-26T20:40:29.225-08:00Gorgeous outfits!

I can't think of any brand that would achieve all those qualities (ethical production, low price and good quality). >_> Though nowadays many brands need to consider ethical aspects in their production, because the consumers want that. :)Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17657394873058225387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374940737527468599.post-49034288998896180772017-01-26T20:36:30.032-08:002017-01-26T20:36:30.032-08:00I am so with you on the sleeves!
