Happy Valentine's Day, friends! I love wearing a little something special for this Hallmark holiday. It's nice to have a reminder to romanticize life a bit, not just with your partner but other relationships--most importantly, the one with yourself. While there are plenty of acts of self care that don't require you to spend money, I thought it would be fun to share my own ethical fashion wishlist full of red and pink dresses and other Valentine's Day favorites. I've been coming across a lot ... Read More
Where To Shop
Where to Shop on Small Business Saturday
You're undoubtedly inundated with Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Thanksgiving, blahblahblah sales (should we all just call it "sale month" at this point?), so I know when you see a gift guide these days you really want it to be something special. I feel the same way, which is why I spend probably way too long hunting down the perfect products to add to articles like this! (But if it influences *anyone* to shop small rather than mass-produced, it's worth it, I think.) Small Business Saturday is a ... Read More

Mixed's pink 'Nana Party jumpsuit is fun in any season, but I love the playful pop of color for fall! ... Read More
Wolf & Badger Fall Dresses
Where do you shop sustainably? Wolf and Badger is one of the few marketplaces for independent designers (featuring mostly fashion but home goods too) that I truly love to spend time on. So many ethical shopping websites have a very limited selection and it feels impossible to cater to many budgets, sizes, and styles at once. (And I get it, Jenn and I recently launched our shop *more on that later!*, and there's truly so much to consider when sourcing!) Lately I've been seeing Wolf & Badger ... Read More
Another Sustainable Swim Post: 12 Eco Friendly Swimsuits for Summer 2022
Yes, we've written about sustainable swim before. No, you shouldn't buy a new swimsuit just because summer is here. But if you happen to be on the hunt for a new suit, and if not, then you've just discovered some fun accounts to follow on Instagram. And thankfully, sustainable swim is no longer hard to come by. With the amount of ocean waste - such as fishing nets - and plastics - like water bottles - that can be recycled into swimwear, there's no need for virgin nylon or polyester-elastane ... Read More
Brands Like Big Bud Press
We've become big fans of Big Bud Press over the years (not spon). Their colorful jumpsuits, unisex styles, and inclusive sizing has landed them many an unsolicited shoutout here on the blog (BBP, if you're reading, hiii!). Now that #dopaminedressing is the new trend in town (and if done sustainably, a playful take on conscious maximalism), more readers are asking us what other brands like Big Bud Press offer bold, colorful, slow fashion? Here are ten of our favorites, below... if you love big ... Read More
