The use of organic cotton has become increasingly widespread in clothing and linens as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional cotton. With all its environmental benefits, we should embrace this movement with open arms. Grown without pesticides, chemical fertilizers or any other chemicals, organic cotton supports biodiversity and healthy ecosystems, making it safer for the land and those who harvest it. It often uses less water in its production than traditional cotton and even helps to improve soil quality. CassaDecor’s certified organic cotton towel collection, Naturel, is a perfect—and pretty—way to bring this green textile to your home.

 

So you’ve got something for the home, now what about your clothes? New York-based Loyale Clothing is one sustainable clothing company in a continually growing fashion sector that “celebrates organic luxury.” The line has been sported by such stylish celebs as Blake Lively, Jessica Alba, and Rachel McAdams.
