Kay, I know I'm all about dresses right now, but I blame the fact that I haven't worn real clothes in a year, not to mention have even come across any occasion to wear a dress. If you can't tell, I wasn't one of those bloggers who embraced fashion and dressed up in honor of ~ content ~ during the pandemic. (As evidenced by the uptick in basics and loungewear-related posts authored by yours truly). I feel like I'm coming back to life, finally. And in a very particular, laidback way, too. Welcome ...

15 Sustainable Swimwear Brands for Summer 2021
Does anyone else feel like it's silly to buy a swimsuit, all year round, and the first heatwave hits and you panic?

I tried to get ahead of it early for once, but to my surprise and delight was actually overwhelmed by the options we now have when it comes to sustainable swimwear!

Colorful Handmade Planters and Vases for Summer
Lately my explore feed has been covered in beautiful ceramics, from handmade planters and vases to tableware and more. Ceramics are fascinating to me and one of the prettiest forms of functional art.

18 Ethical Home Decor Shops You Should Know About
Being big fans of bold and inspiring interiors with a conscious maximalist twist, we are always looking for ethical home goods that have stories behind them, whether it's living room decor or artwork to adorn own walls, and of course to gift (and to prove just how beautiful ethical goods can be!). I remember when I first started blogging about sustainable living, I had only two or three home decor shops to pull from, and most weren't really my style, just as close as I could get (and way out of ...

11 Most Affordable Ethical Clothing Brands

This is about as affordable as it gets for (new) ethical fashion--if we want a more sustainable world, we need to ditch the ... Read More
The Prettiest Sustainably Made Dresses for Spring and Summer
I'll admit, I've had many a tab open with my favorite sustainably made dresses ever since our Anthropologie fashion post last month. So a dress roundup is at this point overdue. (We've been working on a big update to our shop page over here (eeee!), so spending a few hours ogling over spring dresses was actually quite the productive task. More on that later.) Here are my current fave ethical dresses, from midis with handpainted prints to linen maxis, for some major post-vax ... Read More
