Being made redundant in July 2020, 6 months pregnant, made me decide to change direction. I took a course in sustainable fashion which opened my eyes so much and made me feel sick about my previous levels of fashion consumption.

I want to talk to many of the fashion brands I got to know in my previous life leasing and developing shopping centres.

No one is perfect. I believe that all steps in the right direction, aside from obvious greenwashing, should be celebrated. I hope that by talking about what they’re doing, and by garnering positive public response, brands will be encouraged to keep going, do more, and encourage other brands to follow suit. 

Now I wear my values by talking about what I’ve learned and what I do. I’ve converted to the new thrill of buying second-hand fashion, for my family and me. And I adapt the clothes I already own to suit me better. If I need to buy new I research ethical brands using the most sustainable fabrics possible.

But I’m not perfect either, I have many sustainable faults which I hope to improve over time. That said, this website aims to be non-judgemental and people on all levels of their sustainability journey are very welcome. I hope you enjoy!
