I know we could all use some inspiration at the moment, so I couldn’t wait to post our first ever studio tour any longer. (We’d originally planned to pair this with a styled shoot of our own—so we look forward to that.) I’ve been dreaming of sharing creative studios for years now but never knew where to start. That is until I got to know talented artist and business owner, Tatiana Ordonez of Zuahaza, who shares these stunning process photos on their brand’s Instagram. Tatiana’s story is ... Read More
Top Sustainable Loungewear Brands… Because Pajamas Are For Work Now
Anyone here already worked from home when this whole quarantine situation came into play? I've been a freelancer since 2014 (and an introvert since forever) so I'm no stranger to staying home for long periods of time. For months I'd been thinking about how I really need to invest in some quality, sustainable loungewear. Actually the two of us (Jenn, who built our site, and I) had been talking about how we might as well have something nice if we're going to be spending all this time sitting at ... Read More
How to be Eco-Friendly During Quarantine
As upsetting as it is to quarantine during such a beautiful season, I hope it's allowing people to enjoy and appreciate Mother Earth a bit more.

10 Instagram Accounts to Follow for Thrifted + Sustainable Fashion Inspiration
Shopping secondhand is really what kicked off my love of sustainable style, years back. Of course, back then it was more about being wallet-friendly. But hey, whatever gets the ball rolling. We've been a lot more active on Instagram lately than here on the blog (but still, blogs forever.), and it's seriously inspiring to see how stylish a proud outfit repeater can be with a collection of old used clothes. Basically, if you're creative, you do not need fast fashion (or designer fashion) to ... Read More
Eco Club Approved: 19 Conscious Seattle Boutiques to Shop Small
Updated 11/10/22 As promised, here are a few of our favorite Seattle boutiques featuring conscious goods from independent designers. When I set out to write, I knew that there were going to be so, so many shops to pull from. And then it took me weeks to put it up because I didn't know where to stop. We're so lucky that we have an abundance of options when it comes to shopping small in Seattle. (But if you're not in Seattle, don't click out! I've linked to each boutique's website, which are all ... Read More
Eco friendly Friendsgiving ideas with DIY fall flowers
Do you celebrate Friendsgiving? Charity (who took these pretty photos!) and I like to team up on Friendsgiving and invite our circle of friends (mostly best friends from our college days) to gather round. And by team up I mean she gets all the credit. I bring whatever DIY fall flowers I'm experimenting with at the time, and try not to light them on fire between the candles. She's an amazing hostess and cook and baker and stylist and can make any space the most welcoming. ANYWAY. We shared ... Read More
