I'm very excited to share GlobeIn's Limited Edition Admire Box with you this weekend! I've already had several people ask me about sustainably-minded Mother's Day Gifts {can you believe it's almost May! }, and this one is the top of my list. From mesmerizing wine glasses to eco-chic jewelry, I can't think of many mothers who wouldn't be ecstatic to receive such a beautiful gift... you may want one for yourself, too ;) Just in case you haven't seen one of these Artisan Boxes on my blog before, GlobeIn is a monthly subscription box connecting us to remote artisans all over the world.
There aren't excuses to wear clothing which has been unethically produced when you have online shops like Love Justly. Price is fair & affordable and aesthetics are on point, so the usual "it's too expensive" or "this looks frumpy" can't be said. Okay, but to be serious I do find this shop to be the perfect stepping stone into curating a more sustainable wardrobe. With every purchase, 5% of profits is donated to Legacy Collective. & good news for your pocketbook...
If you haven't heard yet, a group of ladies from the Ethical Writer's Coalition & myself are participating in a zero-waste challenge for two weeks. What a lot of us are realizing {especially the ones who travel a bunch & have children}, zero-waste is not for sissys. It isn't easy being conscious every step of the way, and finding a brand who cares & puts forth the effort is awesome in my books. The True Cost and they are - reducing textile waste, ethical production, eliminating toxic waste & saving water.
This past Spring, I came out with a list of 10 affordable brands within the slow fashion movement, and I have a few more to add to it! Their prices are below $100, and many tops are priced around $40. I find if you are paying $20 {or less} for a shirt, someone is being taken advantage of {& you are one of them}. Quality is such an important factor when purchasing, and buying a $50 top from one of these brands will surely last you many more years than that H&M or Gap tee. It's time to start appreciating our clothing, and buying pieces we can use and truly treasure for years to come.
