Episode 28: Diamond Tennis Bracelets, Toxic Glues, and The Return of the Beaded Sandals:  Meet Selina (part II)

Episode 28: Diamond Tennis Bracelets, Toxic Glues, and The Return of the Beaded Sandals: Meet Selina (part II)

It's part two (of three) of our conversation with sustainable designer Selina Sanders. She shares her stories of being embedded in Chinese factories, the pettiness/ugliness of the fashion industry, and the saga of the $5 beaded sandals continues!

Also, Amanda answers listener Elena's questions about Fair Trade. Just like everything else we discuss around here, Fair Trade is both opaque and complicated.
