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

(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 & Bdager ... 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.
