• c o n s i g n t o b ' h a m . . . It's no secret that I love fashion: the creativity, textures, and silhouettes that make the human form change ever so slightly or so drastically to conjure images of balance and distortion. It is also no secret to conscious and non-conscious consumers alike that this beauty is one of the most wasteful industries. As a result, it is important that we try to limit the amount of wasteful purchasing we do, and also to consider giving our clothes second Life if necessary. For example, there are two sources of fashion purchasing I use: ethical brands and #secondhand. The latter is mostly from my favourite consignment stores in New York (East Village, primarily) and charity shops. eBay also houses some of my favourite #vintage shops. It also helps to limit the amount of disposable clothes, and to either learn to repair your own clothes or find a local tailor or seamstress, who can give new life to your old pieces. #fashionadvice #fashiongram #birmingham #ethicallifestyle #ethicalstyleblogger #consignment #balmain #ethicalfashion #secondlife #outfitoftheday #ootd #ootdfashion #ootdstyle #fashion #style #stylegram #fashionblogger ##styleblogger #consciousconsumer #consciousfashion

  • d e b e e r s . . . It's always a tough one having to reconcile between striving to become a conscious consumer and the work that I do (and love). As the lead for Latin America and the Caribbean, and for Sub-Saharan Africa for Women in Mining UK, I get to speak and work with women from all levels of the #mining sector--from machine operators to Board members. Our goal: to bring #gender #parity to the sector at all levels, as well as #safeguard the women who work in very contentious areas. We've seen correlations between robust sustainability and ethical mining practices when there are more #womenonboards and less social and political risks. We still have a long way to go, but it is good to hear what companies, such as the @debeersgroup, are doing to balance the playing field. #womenempowerment #diamonds #debeers #responsiblemining #howresponsible? #mining #transparency #minerals wore #secondhand #jilsander #jacket #blazer and #trousers with #vintage #bag #ootd #ootdfashion #fashion #style #ethicalstyle #ethicalfashion #fashiongram #stylegram #consciousfashion #secondhandfashion

  • i n d i g e n o u s d a y . . . I've just returned from Guyana, where I was during our Indigenous Peoples' Heritage Month. Yes, a month dedicated to our First Peoples who have shaped much of the fabric of our society, culture and development goals. Usually, my work takes me into indigenous communities where I have built rapport over the decades. However, this time saw me in peri-urban areas where my only engagement with the Indigenous (Amerindian) was through our government arm responsible for the exercising of their #rights.. Some Kari (potent cassava beer), cassava bread, tasso, farine and a bit of Forró, would've done me just well.

  • s o c a + w i n e . . . I finally took a much needed break from work to join my first and forever at a soca music and wine event for her radio station @hj94radio. As you know, I do not buy fast fashion unless it comes from a #charityshop. Luckily, there are two people with whom I share wardrobes, and the wifey is one of them. We swap, borrow and tailor to extend our closets, limit the amount of fast fashion #waste. What do you think about sharing closets as a way to reduce waste and to prevent buying anymore unnecessary fast fashion items? Side Note:The only issue with these events, which I only just thought of as I looked at the photo, is the amount of plastic used. For example the cup in my hand. I did asked for a glass. Argh!

The 600 metre long machine uses tidal patterns to float into areas of high #plastic concentration, creating a horseshoe-shaped barrier to trap debris which can later be collected and recycled. I cannot help but be enamoured by him and his team. Just bloody amazing! #theoceancleanup #greatpacificgarbagepatch #pollution #sanfrancisco #environment #recycle #motherearth #boyanslat

  • b a b y b l u e . . . Last weekend, we celebrated the pregnancy of one of the most influential women in my journey to becoming a conscious consumer -- co-founder of the Conscience Collective, Emma H. Although we still chat and get ridiculously excited about sharing our latest move towards a more ethical lifestyle, we can now share our baby finds and our disdain for plastic toys and baby products. More importantly, it was so lovely to see how connected she was to her unborn child and the holistic approach to pregnancy, such as her #hypnobirthing and meditation sessions, that she has taken, and stunningly so. In true fashion, I dug into my closet and pulled out an old #Aquascutum #dress, which I wrapped in #fairtrade belts I bought in #Peru and from a poncho that belongs to Emma, but is mine whilst she is in #Trinidad. I am obsessed with these Bene Caribe neck ties she also bought for me and my #vintage bag and sunglasses. The shoes are @katmaconie (who made your shoes?)
