I am really interested in ethical fashion, both in social and environmental factors that affect the industry that I work in. On this page I have decided to feature ethical fashion related news/brands/shops that I encounter/visit that help to promote important issues within the fashion industry.
I will be featuring vintage shops/independent boutiques, as I just love finding one of a kind pieces but also feel that the promotion of second hand clothing/vintage should be pushed, to alleviate the high street fashion supply chain demand that is putting such a strain on the system and causing many of problems.
It is not about following fashion trends so much, but finding fashion style pieces that will last in your wardrobe and showcasing your personal style. I love promoting/showcasing independents, as this is where you truly find the pieces that everyone will ask you about, as they are original, good quality and quite often than not, absolutely bargains! Many of my friends are vintage lovers, and quite frankly so am I. I love the rummaging through to find that little hidden gem amongst rails/boxes of vintage clothes and accessories. I wil be posting the things that I have bought or that I absolutely loved.

Take the Test- How fast Is your Fashion? 29-11-2011
I came across this really great video today. I think it is really interesting and shows an accurate portrayal on today's public's fashion consumerism choices, whilst bringing a bit of fun to it too!
Only one question remains unanswered
"How fast is YOUR fashion!!!"

Raiders Vintage (Liverpool)
I have blogged about this little gem of a shop before. I absolutely love it! Every single time I go in there, I end up being that much poorer. I don't mind though, as I end up being that much more stylish...so I totally think it is worth it :)
I was delighted with today's purchases. Take a look below!
