    by Reyna from The United States | Jul 21, 2010

    This book was a requirement for one of my classes, and I am so glad it was. I got to learn about style and about sustainability. It went deeper into the world of fashion-and it really felt like I was sitting with Oakes talking to her about her favorite clothes, makeup, etc... It really shows that you can be both fashionable and environmentally friendly. It's easy to do, and feels so much better... I got to meet Summer when she came to our school and even got to interview her. She is as humble & down to earth as she seems in her book or videos. Her book captures her love & intelligence about the environment, and eco-friendly products extremely well.

    Great pics and ideas to try naturally...even with hair, nails, make-up, purses, shoes, and clothes....have not yet tried but wrote down some sites. I will have to get my own copy in the future if I want to take this seriously or buy it from people who make natural soap, hair products, etc.

    What is not to love about this book? Shows the reader a bigger picture than what we see on the department shelves. This book brings together the seller, producer and even the growers for the materials and ingredients of the clothing, accessories and beauty supplies that we buy and own.

    I was disappointed that just one out of the four recommended stores in my area actually sold sustainable clothing. Two went out of business, and the other one did not carry any sustainable clothing. At least I found one store to meet my needs.
