But what if that adorable baby outfit was made by tiny hands. A child. A child forced to labour.
Let's be honest. We all should know by now that human trafficking and slavery still exists. But why? Supply and Demand. Our demand for "affordable" clothing.
I really love one of Moselle Clothing's great lines : "Know the Story You"re Wearing".
But where do we start? Here is a really helpful website : www.thebetterworldshopper.org
For ten bucks you can get their guide book.
For two bucks you can download an app for your iPhone or iPod.
It really is too easy NOT to do it. Check it out!
Secondly...I really enjoy supporting Fair Trade and Ethically Branded products where nearly all the proceeds go right back to the people. Lots of Fair Trade shops have things that make great gifts too.
So Moselle Clothing....another awesome line : "Wear the Story of Freedom" . Each shirt is made by a girl rescued from slavery. She is learning new skills and receiving fair wages to build her life up again.
Check out their store!! I have loved getting to know the couple that started this ministry here in Australia, and I was super blessed to be able to use my photography skills towards their cause.
