How to Create the Perfect Eco Wardrobe...
Black blazers and jackets (B&Js) appear to be everywhere at the moment. Stars and top designers are pairing this must-have wardrobe staple with a variety of obvious (cute dresses) and less obvious items (harem pants), proving just how versatile and appropriate a sleek B&J is for any occasion. It's the perfect work, evening or casual accoutrement. A stylish and well-fitted B&J will instantly give any outfit a sophisticated and polished look.
To be truly green, I would opt for a vintage B&J (you'll see from the selection below that the quality of B&Js are very high) and then tailor them to your shape if possible. Or if you are unable to find a vintage one and want an ethical / organic option, just see the first 2 options below from Amana and Annie Greenabelle.
