Organic Cotton Clothing

With climate change, global warming, and pollution as increasingly hot topics in the mainstream, organic clothing (clothing made from natural materials with no chemicals) is growing in popularity.  Cotton, as one of the most common clothing materials, is now available in organic cotton.  Organic cotton clothing, as the name implies, is made without chemicals during both the manufacturing of the shirt and in the harvesting from the actual cotton plant.

When buying an organic cotton shirt, or any article of organic cotton clothing, you can rest assured that you are doing a small part to help the environment.  And while it is a small part, a lot of small parts can add up to a big difference.

Over the years, my husband and I have developed a Sunday morning routine that I wouldn’t trade for the world. As busy as we might be with social functions on Saturday night, there’s always a sense of comfort and assurance knowing that Sunday will be lazy and laid-back. I like to start things off early by getting up and collecting the New York Times from my doorstep. The arts section and the crossword puzzle are my favorites.

From there I’ll turn on some light jazz music while my husband fumbles around with the coffee pot. Then one of us will begin cooking a breakfast with all the weekend essentials – eggs, bacon, toast and maybe even a pancake or two. Of course it goes without saying that I never change out of my organic sweats throughout this entire process. I’ll start worrying about fashion again when Monday morning comes around.
