Don’t Take Anything For Granted

It’s November 1st and a new month has just begun. With so much newness happiness for us at the blog this year, I love the beginning of a new month because it always give me a boost of energy to be better. Today also marks the beginning of Movember which, as many of you will know, aims to raise awareness and funds to help stop men dying from preventable causes with medical screening and providing them with the resources they need for their mental health.

The real topics in the world can sometimes be “big” or deemed “too heavy.” I like to be as open and honest with you all as I can without trying to depress you, but the fact remains that the fashion industry is one of the worst pollutants on a global scale. And though I am not going to preach to you about what you should and shouldn’t do, I think it’s important to remember that the small things we do – such as which clothing brands we support – do ultimately affect the world as a whole.
