I’m passionate about slow fashion and sustainable style. Clothing made with intention that looks after our people and earth. I’m all about buying less but better, investing in quality wardrobe staples that you will have for years to come.
My approach to slow fashion is a gentle one. For me, sustainable fashion is a practice; you don’t have to have to create the “perfect” sustainable wardrobe to be making a meaningful difference.
In these blog posts I share how to take a slower approach to style that’s sustainable for both your wardrobe and life. You can build a wardrobe which doesn’t compromise on your values or sense of style.
Here I share simple wardrobe and mindset shifts to help you think of your clothes in a different way and to help you start building a more sustainable wardrobe today.

How dreamy is this gingham number from Jillian Boustred’s beautiful collection?
