Warm Clothes?!?
I am now making it clear for all that,yes , it is OK to get out the scarfs, jumpers, tammies (hats), gloves and MASSIVE winter jackets because finally Winter is officially upon us (in Scotland anyway)! (If you managed to read that sentence then give yourself a gold star!)
If anyone does not believe me then please look here or please go outside!
I think winter is BRILLIANT!
- The world around us looks even more beautiful
- We get to laugh at the "EMERGENCIES" all over the country a.k.a. the weather which has been happening for thousands/millions of years does what it does every year and humans don't like it
- It rains :D
Yet I find myself ill equipped for the weather and I like millions of other people in the northern hemisphere will look to the highstreet for the clothes to keep warm. When thinking about where to buy from places like Topman, Debenhams, H&M and even ASDA (student) came to mind until I remember that all the products where all made by people in sweat shops. I'm sure you are all very aware of the awful situation. We see in the news and all over the place so much stuff ABOUT sweat shops. Yet nothing about where I can spend my money to buy fairly traded items such as: Jumpers, Jackets, Jeans or Football boots which so far I have not been able to find. These are basic essentials.
So where can people buy clothes? Though fashion isn't extremely important it would be nice if these clothes looking half sensible and were prices reasonably. So has anyone found a place that can supply fairly traded clothes? PLEASE leave a comment and tell us if you have!!
