Charlotte Church has some wise words for the Black Friday bargain hunters among us.
Church took to Twitter on Friday 25 November to dispense her sustainable fashion wisdom.
“On this ‘Black Friday’ check out the online charity shops. I’ve been finding some cracking gifts,” she wrote.
“We don’t need new shit... get creative!”

Over the last few years, Church has made the move from singer to activist, addressing a crowd of thousands at an anti-austerity rally in London, and singing for Greenpeace outside the Shell Centre in London as part of a protest against Shell’s quest for oil in the Arctic.
As well as charity shops, sustainable fashion fans can find an eco-friendly Black Friday alternative by shopping at Patagonia’s retail stores and website. The brand has pledged to donate 100% of global sales on Friday 25 November to support grassroots environmental organisations.
