An organic and trendy look with brands from elsewhere…

Yes, a look from the ethical fashion planet!
Actually, we're going for a Ludivine style, and too bad for you, I'm not the perfect fashionista... and yes, here it's more jeans/sneakers (in organic and fair trade versions) than dresses and the like... I apologize in advance!
So I'm offering you a decidedly urban, casual chic look!

1. The essential: Jeans
Yes, I know and you know yourself that jeans, manufacturing, etc... it's disgusting, that's why you should prioritize buying organic and fair trade jeans. My favorite brand is Dutch, it's Kuyuchi. It's organic and above all, it's THE pioneering brand that dared to make organic jeans when all brands (I mean the big brands) only made conventional ones...

I'd add that Kuyuchi works in fair trade.
There are really so many, many jeans, you're bound to find what you're looking for!

2. The Top
And here I'm calling on Hermione Granger, aka Emma Watson, who is signing her second collection with People Tree (like the big organic and fair trade British brand).

Of course, organic cotton is used and it's fair trade manufactured in India.
And I like striped tops, even if I know stripes aren't flattering! (well, I don't care, just between us!!!)

3. The Jacket
This jacket has been catching my eye for like 5 years now, plus it's super trendy. The César-winning actress Leila Bekhti wore it this weekend in Tout ce qui brille, and yet it's a man's jacket... yes, I know, but it's beautiful!! Urban but beautiful.

In short, Misericordia is a brand designed by a Frenchman but based in Lima. It's not organic but completely fair trade.

4. The Shoes
And yes, because I don't just wear sneakers, I also wear ballet flats (I have a bit of trouble with heels). Beyond Skin, a feminine and also vegan brand. What more could you ask for?

Handmade in India, these pretty shoes contain natural latex and even silk. Classy.
Well, these ballet flats have heels, but oh well!!

5. The Bag
Feed, the brand that all of Hollywood is snatching up, is a bag just the way I like them. Large and minimalist.

Made of organic cotton, it's also reversible. Thanks to this purchase, a child gets lunch for a year.
