Why It's Good:
Small and quaint, this little consignment shop is located in sleepy Noe Valley, on its own outside the main vintage neighborhoods. Stroll in on your way home from grabbing a snicker doodle at Noe Valley Bakery or just after your yoga class at Castro Bikram. Don't miss the jewelry and accessories in the case next to the old-fashioned hatboxes. The owner is very friendly and will happily sort through any items you might want to sell at her shop.
Why It's Green:
Look good and feel good, because reusing clothing is a form of recycling. When you reuse clothing you do the environment a favor because reused clothing requires no new materials, fuel, or energies for manufacturing; virtually the only environmental cost you pay is shipping.
