Eco-Fashion Hits Target
I went to check out the Rogan for Target line this weekend. And I have a mixed review. The majority of the items were in fact organic cotton or silk. But there was a handful of stuff mostly bathing suits that were nylon and spandex.
The line has some cute tops and dresses. I actually purchased a cute summer dress for $34.99 that I am wearing as I write this post. They have kind of a casual safari vibe to them.
The thing that bugged me the most was all the pieces are made in China. Now I assume that they are produced under fair wages etc. But I have not been able to get any confirmation at this point. When I do I'll let you know.
So should you buy? Why not? My new dress seems well made and should stand up to years of wear. Plus it's organic cotton. The line should be in Target for the next six weeks.
About this blog
Roxanne Kotzman is a Daily News Photo Department veteran of nine years. When she and longtime friend Stacy Long
discovered their love all of all things environmentally responsible, they launched Happy Monkey Planet and jumped head-first into the vibrant eco-community.
Wow, so much to learn! But initially the idea is a pretty simple one: Let's change the world through information, education and action.
Rox & Stacy are a lot like you: ecologically minded but sometimes just plain overwhelmed when charged with the task of making a far-reaching difference in the environment. They have jobs, families, homes, lives and pets.
But what if doing better was a simple as a light-bulb change, a reusable canvas grocery bag, recycling that soda can or a cold-water wash?
These eco-chicks just hope to have a little fun, learn a little more, share a lot of information and maybe make the planet a happier, greener, cleaner place.
