Second-Thand celebrity

Actress Thandie Newton is snubbing designer stores in favour of charity shops.

The eco-friendly star believes it's time to go green by wearing second hand clothes.

The 35-year-old says manufacturing is out of control and believes going vintage is the way forward.

The Crash star has been a keen green supporter for years.

And now she's begun to take a pro active approach to trying to get people to think more about their choices.

She has started writing to celebrities to encourage them to consider the environment more.
