h&m Conscious Collection 2014

Our beloved h&m came out with their third conscious collection, and it doesn't disappoint. It is very stunning.
This piece is definitely my favorite. I love white, lacy clothing. 
This piece reminds me of a particular Dolce & Gabbanna dress Lily Allen wore back in 09', I believe.
Which is great, because that was one of my aesthetically favorite collections of all time. 
This jacket, too. So much goodness on one blazer. 

Some of the items are a little pricey, overall ranging from $17-$600. But, when we buy cheap clothing that is poorly made and harmful to the environment, we really should be paying much more for them considering how much damage that clothing does to the world around us. Hopefully, this type of clothing becomes the norm and the prices will begin to go down.

I read an article that said the drive behind the creation of this collection was because celebrities were asking for more environmentally-friendly clothing. I don't know how true that is, and as happy as I am to hear that anyone is possibly interested in more sustainable clothing, are more everyday consumers asking for environmentally-friendly clothing? 

Sure some of the pieces are still made from leather and silk, but kudos to h&m for continuing the sustainable trend. 

Let's hope this soon becomes h&m's conventional way of making clothing.
