J.Crew: Garments for Good

Hi friends!

Have you stepped into a J.Crew lately? Amongst all the cashmere oversize sweaters, sparkly jewelry and loafers they are carrying a collection of items for local and international charitable organizations. The items are super cute and J.Crew is giving each organization 100% of the net proceeds! Some of the organizations they have partnered with are: DonorsChoose, Teach for America, David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, National Park Foundation, Baby Buggy and UNICEF. Along with donations, some J.Crew stores have dedicated shopping nights for charities. So awesome! You should check if your local J.Crew has any events coming up!

Below are some of the J.Crew “garments for good” being sold in stores and online now. 🙂

Eileen Fisher

Have you ever visited Eileen Fisher’s website? If not, do it now {then come back to my post; of course ;)}. What you will find is a fashion company that doesn’t only believe in philanthropy but has deeply weaved social responsibility from manufacturing all the garments she sells to the very core of the company. Eileen Fisher sees ” business as movement” meaning that she drives her company as an agent of change. The company even has a human rights leader in charge of making sure factories abroad are not part of human trafficking. Locally, stores nationwide host fundraising events, book readings and even knitting sessions. Along with all that, Eileen also founded a leadership institute focused on empowering women and girls and a grant program for women entrepreneurs that are themselves agents of change for women and girls.

Honestly, I’m giving you a small glimpse of all the awesome things this company does. I could spend hours writing about how they pick organic cotton for the garments they sell or how they even created a recycling program where the proceeds go to empowering girls. I mean, aren’t they just perfect? Well, maybe not perfect, but they sure do come close…

Now go and browse some of their beautiful garments and shop because now you know that buying from Eileen Fisher won’t only make you look beautiful but will make you feel great that today you contributed to a greater cause.

Below are some of my favorite fall pieces. 😉
