Grace Trance designs wonderful clothing for working girls. Her sensibility is elegant and sweet contrasted with a very organic textured fabric made of hemp. Made in San Francisco. Keep an eye out for her collections.

Save the environment, save the world.
First the show is partnering with The Conservation Fund who's Go Zero program will plant 188 trees at the Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge in East Texas that will neutralize the carbon footprint from the tour.
Second, they're selling 100% organic cotton and organic ink t-shirts made in the USA! Cool!
Third, 50% of the proceeds from the shirts will be donated to The Conservation Fund, the nation's top environmental nonprofit.
you can buy one here.
What a great idea, a piece that can be worn a few different ways, even after your pregnancy. Jesica Scott designs a lot of cute, flirty pieces made from Lyocell and Tencel.
The first Skunk Funk shop in North America opened near my house in the Mission S.F. I was surprised to learn that many of their wares are sustainable, or at least blends! Soy, Viscose, Bamboo and some Organic Cotton. So I scooped up a cute top made of 95% viscose (the rest elastic) and I'll be checking back regularly. The designs are very modern with a euro-techno edge. I'm into the look (although the green is way too prevalent). I believe they're out of Spain and have 700 stores across the globe. This is one brand to keep a look out for!
Check out Nau's urbane jacket. It's made from 100% recycled fabric that uses Teijin Eco Circle techonolgy, a closed-loop recycling system for polyester. Nice!
