It's Fashion Friday, but the resource we're sharing today sells more than just clothing.

Yes, NoCargo, has an array of garments for people of all ages (and appropriate for any season), but they also sell pretty much anything else you can imagine.

Usually we use this space to highlight the great work of companies that manufacture clothing in the United States, and we'll do that again next week, but please permit us this diversion from the norm.

Love American-made clothing? Tweet about it!

Next time you're in the market for new jeans, we have an American-made suggestion: the Jeans Project.

Not only are these jeans manufactured in Los Angeles, but they give back to the community. According to the Jeans Project's website: "For every pair of jeans sold, $10 will be donated to the Dream Center recovery programs and help to make a difference in someone’s life."

Oscar weekend is finally upon us. For some, this is an event that is as big as, or bigger than, the Super Bowl. Only instead of coming for the commercials and staying for the game, the fashion-obsessed come for the gowns (and sometimes the tuxes) and stay for the awards.

In an effort, it seems, to engage that crowd early, The Oscars created a web series dedicated to Oscar night gowns for the five actresses nominated in the Best Actress in a Leading Role catgory.
