Countless “green” boutiques have opened around here lately, but two of them truly stand out. A latter-day Millicent Rogers, Joslin Van Arsdale selects clothes for her Russian Hill shop, Eco Citizen, with the same curatorial eye she used as director of Santa Fe’s Photo-Eye Gallery. Good Society skinny jeans, John Patrick tailored shirts, and smoldering Sara Shepherd suits are a few picks that make the cut. Arsdale selects vendors based on whether they follow fair-trade practices and use sustainable textiles. Ladita, in Bernal Heights, sells must-haves like strappy, sustainable wood wedges by Mohop, oversize clutches made of vintage car upholstery by Kim White, and slinky knits by Eco Lux. The boutique also has a wide selection of organic products for babies—perfect for parents who want to start training them while they’re still young. Eco Citizen: 1488 Vallejo St., 415-614-0100, ecocitizenonline.com; Ladita: 827 Cortland Ave., 415-648-4397, shopladita.com
