A lovely bit of @lunaandcurious to brighten your Tuesday feed this morning ❤️

This is their gorgeous Red Floral Dress, which has a sweet little tie collar at the front, bound edges and a pocket.

It's made with a beautiful Japanese cotton (100%), which is soft on the skin 🌱

So, at this point it just feels like we're showing off, buuuut... look at this beautiful creation by @tao_worn.
This is the stunning Ena jumpsuit.
TAO's slow ethical worns respect the circular regeneration of soil and bio diversity at every single stage.

So, today marks the first day of summer and the longest day of the year, with 16 hours and 38 minutes of daylight... however, typically it's pouring down with rain here and the clouds are so abundant that I don't think we'll even see a glimpse of that glorious sunshine today 😆⁠

☀️A little @stidston.studio #throwback... just to remind us that Summer is on it's way! Whoop! Feels like it's been a bloomin' long Winter, doesn't it.

This @Fash_Rev buyerarchy is AMAZING.
Let's work on this you lot... use what you have, borrow, swap, thrift, make... and if you buy, buy BETTER.
We should all work on building a more sustainable wardrobe and lifestyle to encourage the change that is needed within this industry.
