Fashion Is Spinach: How to Beat the Fashion RacketAfter working as a stylist in Paris, Elizabeth Hawes (1903 71) launched one of the first American design houses in Depression era New York. Hawes was an outspoken critic of the fashion industry and a champion of ready to wear styles.

"I don't know when the word fashion came into being, but it was an evil day," Hawes declares.
After working as a stylist in Paris, Elizabeth Hawes (1903-71) launched one of the first American design houses in Depression-era New York. Hawes was an outspoken critic of the fashion industry and a champion of ready-to-wear styles. Fashion Is Spinach, her witty and astute memoir, offers an insider's critique of the fashion scene during the 1920s and '30s."I don't know when the word fashion came into being, but it was an evil day," Hawes declares. Style, she maintains, reflects an era's mood, altering only with changes in attitude and taste. Fashion, conversely, exists only to perpetuate sales. Hawes denounces the industry's predatory practices, advising readers to reject ever-changing fads in favor of comfortable, durable, flattering attire. Decades ahead of her time, she offers a fascinating and tartly observed behind-the-scenes look at the fashion industry's economics, culture, and ethics.

Our family's go to sunblock
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion Twin Pack
This is my go to sunblock for my kids. It's mineral so there's obviously a white cast. I don't mind it for kids because I like seeing where I have applied so I don't miss any spots. I've never had a sunburn while using this and I'm not the best about promptly reapplying. The cream is a good thickness and softness. Not so thick and gooey that you hate the feel of it. It doesn't have a terrible smell but just like a standard mineral sunscreen smell. Does require a decent amount of washing/ gentle scrubbing to get it to come off the skin.

Seems to work well, and less toxic than many sunscreens
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion Twin Pack
I'm an avid hiker and bought this for me, trying to use less harmful chemicals. Defiantly sticks on thicker and I see residue on the interior of the car, but can clean it up. Seems to stay on well, and work well. And it's not supposed to really disappear into skin. Supposed to sit on surface more. I don't mind having white, obvious, sunscreen. I don't use it in town. Wanted kid ish safe - so it's safer for me.
