All in Sustainable Lifestyle
As of late, I have tried my hardest to lower my carbon footprint and use products that harm our beautiful planet as little as possible. I am always on the lookout for new brands that help me do this so was thrilled to hear the announcement about new beauty brand launch Fiils.
Did you know that only 50% of toiletries are recycled, which is just over half of the 90% of kitchen products which are recycled. Not sure why that is but…
If like me the first time I did Plastic Free July, you aren't too sure on how to do your bit, here are a few ways on how you can cut back on your plastic usage both in and out of the home in order to lower your carbon footprint and help save our beautiful oceans and marine life. The future of our planet really does depend on it.
Being a Mum shouldn't mean that you suddenly stop looking after yourself. In actual fact, you really need to look after yourself more than ever because if you aren't a hundred percent, you could fall ill. Then how will you be able to care for your little person? Here are a few of the ways I make sure I am looking after myself
Wow! Where has this year gone? It's already one month to Christmas!! So I thought I'd share with you a few gift ideas this year that won’t break the bank or the planet
So, I recently attended the It's A Vegan Ting Festival in London. And while I was there, I picked up this amazing Vegan Girl Gang T-Shirt. I had seen it when I looked up the line-up before I attended the event. So I was elated to find it there and it was the last one left!
I have been a long standing lover of ASOS and I was elated when I heard that earlier this year, they vowed to ban silk, cashmere, mohair and feathers from their site. It may not be as far as a lot of us vegans would like to see, with them still selling leather items, but it is definitely a step in the right direction. So I decided to have a look at their website to see what they had to offer.
Did you know that around 50–100 million animals are used in experiments each year?! In this day in age, I ask myself why we are still undertaking such cruel and barbaric tests. We are now able to unlock our phone with our fingerprint, power cars solely on electricity and fly to the moon and back. But yet, despite all of that, we continue to cause pain and suffering to these beautiful, innocent beings!
I recently had the privilege to meet the creator behind the ethical jewellery brand My-Wishbone, Emma Riley. I had the opportunity to speak to her in detail about how the brand came about. The name was almost accidentally created as Emma sat and thought about how she wanted to change her life and inspire others to do the same.
So last week I went to the It's A Vegan Ting event and it was such a cool experience. It was like a party with loads of amazing food, drink, art, clothes, accessories and cosmetics. All of my favourite things, so I was 100% in my element!
Every fashionista knows that lipstick really finishes a look nicely. Most days I'll only wear my eyebrows and mascara. Then I add lipstick to the mix and feel fire! There are now a lot of vegan friendly lipsticks out there for us to choose from and I have started to build up quite the collection!
I had the opportunity to go to the Veg Fest in Bristol yesterday. It was the first time going to an all vegan event and it was so amazing. I love the fact that I didn't have to ask any of the vendors if it was vegan. Such a refreshing feeling.
I've always thought I was a conscious and responsible person. I never thought that my purchases could possibly affect the health of the planet or the lives of others, even more so since going vegan. But after Fashion Revolution Week, I started to take a deeper look at the impact of my actions and how buying into Fast Fashion affects the planet.
As some of you may know I have a love hate relationship with my skin and am constantly on the lookout for the best thing for my skin. Here are some of my favourite vegan skincare finds
Can a girl really ever have too many shoes? That is the question. Well, for a girl like me, the answer used to be a firm no. Shoes, as well as other accessories such as jewellery and handbags, make an outfit.
Wow! Has it really been a year already?! That has absolutely flown by. At first making the transition was hard and I am still on a journey of transition. But when I think of the reasons why I decided to go vegan, giving up is not an option.
As it's National Christmas Jumper Day and we have 10 more sleeps until Christmas, I thought I would compile a list of gifts for any vegans you are buying for this year (aka my Christmas wishlist)
So I know I only ever blog about fashion. But I feel like, unless your Winter fashion will constantly consist of balaclavas, then every Fashionista needs to take care of their skin. Winter always plays havoc with mine. It becomes dry and dull, so a good skincare regime is imperative to keep it glowing for all the festivities of the season. Herein lies the secrets to my radiant Winter skin.
