Cozy and Sustainable/Ethical Fall Clothing

This fall more than ever, I am dreaming of cozy days wrapped in blankets while drinking coffee and reading a good book. Though I love the fall temperatures in the 50s and 60s, I know that colder days are around the corner. I wanted to share some great loungewear pieces with you that also are made by great companies supporting ethical and environmentally-friendly fashion.

FLEECE CREWNECK | This sweatshirt from Everlane is made from 35 renewed plastic bottles and is part of the ReNew collection, which is the beginning of Everlane's efforts to cut out all virgin plastic. Plus, Everlane prides itself on its transparency, which is one of my top five wear-no-evil factors.

WINTER BEANIE | This Patagonia beanie is made from 96% recycled polyester materials. Some of the items recycled to make the fabric include old plastic soda bottles and worn out clothing garments. Patagonia also supports fair trade working conditions and safe factory environments and clearly outlines their supply chain practices online.

IVORY SLIDES | These Everlane sandals are the perfect shoe to throw on quickly if you need to run outside and take a break from cozying up by the fire. They are made from leather, so vegans beware, but they look like the comfiest slide that will last for a long time.

CABLE KNIT SWEATER | Another Everlane piece here, but this one is a bit more dressy if you need to use it for less casual occasions as well. The cable knit and mockneck make this the perfect thing to wear if you want to stay warm at home but paired with some stretchy pants and booties, this sweater would also be perfect for a comfortable Thanksgiving Day outfit.

PAJAMA SET | Reformation has the cutest pajamas, and though this set is shorts and a short sleeve tee, the print just screams fall! This is a great wear-pajamas-all-day set for weekends spent indoors. The set is 100% made from the recyclable fabric TENCEL and saves you 15.36 pounds of carbon dioxide, just under 1150 gallons of water, and 1.31 pounds of waste.

BLANKET SCARF | The blanket scarf pictured above is from Bloom and Give. The scarfs are hand-loomed and packaged in reusable cotton bags. 50% of all profits are donated toward programs for female education. I wasn't able to link this same scarf in the widget below, so instead, I linked a very similar one from Eileen Fisher, whose company is one of the most well-known for sustainability initiatives.

SWEATPANTS | There is nothing quite as wonderful as waking up on the weekend and not having to get dressed in fancy pants that day. Sometimes I'll opt for leggings or yoga pants, but these Reformation sweatpants are the perfect combination of both (and in a great holiday red, to boot). They're made from surplus fabric and save 15 pounds of carbon dioxide, 766 gallons of water, and just under 1 pound of waste.
