Green.... The New Color of Recycling, and Fashion?


Retail Stores are in rare form Ladies, and Gents!!! Winter clothes are getting sold at low prices, and shipments of Spring clothes are coming in slowly but surely. And while looking through windows of H&m, Macy's, and looking at the accessory themes at New York & Co., and Forever 21. All that I see is.... Green. I know you think Green and think "Gross Oscar the Grouch"?? But this green is nowhere near MEAN. The shade of green I think will be in full effect this summer is (drum roll): Kelly Green. A marvelous color that has definitely been in and out of the fashion spotlight for years, but this time around I think this color will do wonders for all-in-one short jumpsuits, summer dresses, linen pants, summer sandals, classic, and EDGY heels and also evening wear such as cocktail dresses. Designers are also using all shades of vibrant greens for attention of the audience and their crazed fans of their clothing. Does this movement of green have anything to do with "Going Green"?? If so I'm totally psyched about fashion, and the environment going hand-in-hand agreeing that we NEED a better, cleaner WORLD. Yes, their is some organizations such as GreenFashion, but WE NEED MORE!!! Fashion magazines,runaway shows, and more designer's recycling items to make clothes, or fancy pocketbooks, or wallets!
We also need to enforce that WE do have ecological problems on our planet, and it's up to us to conserve our natural resources.I remember reading Al Gore's quote in 2007 stating "The planet is in distress and all of the attention is on Paris Hilton." Be that as it may, Gore is totally right. But that's what appeals to us as a younger generation. So if we can "mesh" these 2 ideas together FASHION & PROJECT GREEN. We might have something that will reach millions!!
Maybe it's a way we can enforce what Global Warming is doing to our environment, as well as be Fashion Forward?? Mm mm.... interesting thought I must say.
Comments on this subject are definitely A MUST. let me know how you feel about this concern, and what you think we can do to combining the 2 factors. Until then PEACE
