Uh-oh!

A class action lawsuit was filed here in California this week against Kiss My Face and about two dozen other cosmetic manufacturers. Seems it’s a bit of a no-no out here to call your cosmetics organic unless they contain at least 70% organic ingredients.

But that’s not the only place where there’s some labeling hijinks happening.

Earlier this week, I tweeted and facebooked a wonderful article that warns about label switching on vintage clothing garments. While there are only a handful of dishonest vintage sellers prowling the hallways of the worldwide web and playing these unethical games , it pays to be an informed and watchful consumer.

I hope you’ll take the time to read the entire article by Jody Steinman of Couture Allure to really gain some insight into this issue and learn how to protect yourself from this occasional bait-and-switch tactic.

I just love this vintage 1960s Lanson raincoat for its quilted taffeta fabric and the ultra-charming print of curved-horn antelopes. And believe me, this baby would in a package on its way to me right now if only it was smaller or my chest was bigger.

But it’s a fantastic find for a better-endowed vintage fashionista!

Available at Couture Allure.
