We pile our closets with trendy clothes that our overflowing cabinets can’t contain all the outfits we’ve bought over the years. Much of the time these clothes that have gone passé end up in landfill or discarded somehow for nobody wants to be seen in last season’s ensemble. As per the Council for Textile Recycling, the...
More people are switching to a healthy lifestyle. There are plant-based diets, new-fangled workout routines, soul pampering sessions, and with the rise of this holistic approach to living, health-conscious people are looking for a great wardrobe filled with sustainable athleisure that reflects their conscious lifestyles. These holistic health buffs are, quite naturally, eco warriors because...
Fashion week isn’t often considered a venue for sustainable or ethical fashion, so when we feed our sense of style from the usual Instagram style influencers (who quite frankly could care less about how their clothes are made and who made them) we usually get the same superficial fashion posts and updates from the catwalks...
Giving mum a thoughtful gift or taking her out to dinner are all well and good but why not step up your quality time with mum? Taking her to some beautiful places for Mother’s Day will definitely create new memories, foster a love of our environment and you might get some Instagrammable shots too! Here...
To honour your mum and the special women in your life this Mother’s Day, why not come bearing eco-friendly gifts that honour the great Mother Earth as well? If you’re giving a gift to show love and appreciation, you should carefully select something special and unique for your mom; something she will especially like because...
Let me tell you a different story. Fashion Revolution Week has been a worldwide social phenomena. This year it was celebrated after Holy Week. So on April 25, it was fitting that I met an ethical fashion ‘Messiah’; Hannah Theisen, founder and CEO of TELAstory Inc. who seems to have arrived to save us from...
Plastic has us at its mercy. From the leaching of harmful toxins to the degradation of the environment, who knew that a simple thing such as plastic could be a great factor to our planet’s devastation? We’re so addicted to the man-made material that we’re literally having a tough time shaking it out of our...
April 22 marks Earth Day and it’s just around the corner. What better way to replenish Mother Earth and restore her back to health than by committing to a trash-free lifestyle on that day? Swapping out everyday items for zero waste products is a great way to reduce waste, minimise carbo footprint and save money...
Fashion Revolution Week begins April 22 and we’re on a quest to bring you to the ethical side and encourage you to rebel against fashion fascists. Playing in the background while we fulfil this mission will be David Bowie’s song ‘Fashion’ in which he sings about how people have become slaves to the shallow nature...
What’s new in fashion? That is the most common question we ask when we talk about fashion. Once caught up, we update our wardrobe with these trends worn by Tinseltown’s beautiful people or the gorgeously-clad Instafamous. Inspired, you dress up in a style that is either urban chic, hipster or edgy. These eclectic options lead...
When you and your new husband are about to do the deed, you gotta make sure that you do it right. I’m not talking about the moves here. I’m referring to decking out in pieces of sexy yet sustainable and ethical undergarments on your wedding night. However, going “all out” for this hopefully just once-in-a-lifetime...
Coal is the worst of all fossil fuels and we burn eight billion tons of it a year. First of all, what are fossil fuels? Fossil fuels are the natural sources for energy formed millions of years ago. These materials are non-renewable because it takes another hundreds of millions of years for these energy sources...
