			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-669" title="shopping bag" src="http://www.apbnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/shopping-bag2.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="180" />MSN has a great <a href="http://finances.msn.com/saving-money-ideas/53bc3a3b-7e3e-4ba6-8b36-d3a41b9addc8">list </a>of the best things to buy in January. This includes electronics (from online stores), winter apparel, and furniture. Retailers are getting rid of old stock to make way for new items. Plus, they need to start the year strong after the post-Christmas sales slump. Buying a new coat for next year is on my to-do list since both mine have seen almost a decade of wear (Hey, it’s Texas and I really have to justify buying a new coat). Here are my top picks to try for under $200:</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/outerwear/wool/PRDOVR%7E49619/49619.jsp">Double Cloth Metro</a></strong></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-653" title="coat" src="http://www.apbnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/coat1-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="97" height="97" />This J. Crew piece is Italian wool – and it’s eggplant hued. It’s like someone dipped a sheep in purple dye! The cut is slimming even though the coat is fully lined. Even better, the knee length cut lets you show off your winter boots.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=40924&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=423441">Pink Trench</a></strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-657" title="cn4097321" src="http://www.apbnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/cn4097321.jpg" alt="" width="76" height="103" />Inspector Clouseau wore a pale khaki trench coat. But this revamped version from Banana Republic is the color of the Pink Panther. With a mid-thigh length it won’t overpower a petite figure, while the belted waist cinches any woman into an instant hourglass shape.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://us.levi.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11663741&amp;&amp;cp=3146849.3146888.3883058">Cord Sherpa Trucker Jacket</a></strong></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-659" title="blush" src="http://www.apbnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blush-247x300.jpg" alt="" width="91" height="111" />This Levi jacket will still be comfy to wear in March. It’s hard to tell from the photo, but the color isn’t actually light fawn. It’s blush&#8230;the very palest pink that belies the boyish cut and corduroy fabric. The fleecy lining at the color frames your face while the waist length cut lets you make a fashion statement with layered shirt tails underneath.</p>

Anyone familiar with the action sports clothing industry knows that there are a plethora of competitors out there. From Quicksilver to RVCA to Hurley and Billabong, how should one choose which to wear and which to leave on the rack at the store? Since most of this type of apparel looks and feels roughly the same I suggest looking at what else the company does besides simply selling clothing.</p>
<p>As you might be aware, more and more companies are becoming socially conscious and incorporating giving back into their business models. While this trend may seem like a new fad, there were a few companies that pioneered the revolution a while back. The company that started this trend in the action sports apparel space is Jedidiah Clothing. Since the year 2000, Jedidiah has been aiding humanitarian organizations across the globe through sales of surf clothing and other apparel. Though the styles have changed over the years, their focus of using apparel sales as a vehicle to provide care, support and financial resources to those in need has stayed constant.</p>
<p>Each season, Jedidiah partners with a different nonprofit and sales from that season help to complete a specific project for that organization. Whether it be building a homeless center or sending kids to college, the projects Jedidiah works toward are both ambitious and inspirational.</p>
<p>This season, all sales benefit the nonprofit Invisible Children in rebuilding war-torn schools in Northern Uganda. While you may not have time to go to Africa, every purchase you make at the <a href="http://www.jedidiahusa.com/store/" target="_blank">Jedidiah Clothing Online Store</a> directly helps the children in Northern Uganda by giving them a place to learn.</p>
