Mod Cloth Eco Friendly Line

That totally fabulous vintage-y inspired website known as Mod Cloth has launched a line of super cute Eco Friendly clothing, accessories, room and housewares. They have everything from recycled water bottles with cute graphics, lovely cotton/hemp clothing and earthy little tote bags plus so much more and each item has a fun little name & story behind it. The prices vary from as little as $4 to over $250 for exclusive one of a kind pieces. Ive shop Mod Cloth for a couple of years now, even won a dress once in a Name It And Win It Contest, they have the most unique gifts and little knick-knacks. The only drawback I've noticed is their prices have been increasing lately, it used to be a bit more affordable but even still you can get great finds if your shop around and use discount codes. You might pay a little more for something but you'll get items that aren't mass marketed so you'll always be the talk of the town.They also have a great little blog with customer participation, feedback and loads of contests.Check out their Eco Friendly line by clicking the link below. Stay Beautiful! XOXO

Vintage Fashion Online





Vintage clothing and accessories are all sought after by collectors of all ages and social status and they are highly coveted goods so I'm adding a few more websites on where to buy these treasures.Something is typically considered vintage if it was made from 1920 to 1980.There's something special about owning a trinket from days passed,it's kind of romantic to own a little piece of history while preserving it at the same time.It's also a great way to recycle and reuse clothing,your also helping sweat shops from mass producing using cheap child labor,getting a return on an investment because you can always resell something vintage and most of all for the uniqueness of it all.You are more than likely to be the only person at the party with a particular item that no one else has! Happy Vintage Shopping!

Tips on vintage shopping:
  • Make sure to get lots of photos of the actual item being sold and up close views from all sides so you know exactly what your getting
  • Ask for proof of authenticity if possible for designer goods
  • Find out as much information as you can about the item and it's material and condition
  • Get exact measurements before buying.
