About Me

  • “The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but building the new.” - Socrates. I have come to see a lot of negativity about the fashion world and contempt for the current system. These concerns are not without foundation but I insist that change will occur, not in fighting the old, but building a new and better system. Companies like @central_grazing_company have put this principle in motion building a brand that is the model of equity, fairness, and justness.
  • Here’s to leaning into new opportunities.
  • What are you currently reading?
  • One company is writing a love letter to consumers and artisans alike....”Their vision that "one day all artisans in developing countries will earn a fair wage, be treated with dignity and respect, and be able to live a life of quality" is enough to stir in you the same emotions that can only be found in a love letter. On its surface it's a simple message. But, to achieve this vision one must first take a hard look at the current wide-spread, mainstream practices which remind us of "devotion, disappointment, grief and indignation, self-confidence, ambition, impatience, self-reproach and resignation."

  • Happiness is spending mornings outside in a dress I bought 11 years ago. 🐐 ☀️
  • Anyone else ready to kick up their feet and enjoy the weekend? Also so happy to say that @central_grazing_company reached their kickstarter goal! So happy to see sustainable brands get the funding and support that is bringing about much needed change to the industry!
  • I’ve come to realize there are many lessons to be learned from gardening that can be applied to the fashion industry and our roll to play in its change. Change and growth take time. I do not expected the industry to change overnight but know that with guidance, advocacy, patience and some nurturing we can create an outcome that is sustainable, beautiful and beneficial to all. 🌸 “When a flower doesn’t bloom you fix the environment in which is grows, not the flower.” - Alexander Den Heijer
  • With all this rain today kind of felt like a curl up in bed and watch movies day. Instead I finally decided to get around to editing video footage I’ve been sitting on for weeks. Now live Vlog 2 / Life Update: Brimfields, Gardening, and the Most Confortable Culottes. 👆🏼 Link in bio
  • It feels good to be back after a much needed break. I set out with the idea of taking time to rediscover what I loved. Too often we get wrapped up in the day to day and forget what is in our hearts and at my core. By the end of my time off I couldn't stop thinking about the blog and my work. I was excited to get back and share some amazing brands and stories with you. Companies like Artisan & Fox make my job a joy and incredibly hopeful for the future of the industry. With a focus on worker's rights and leaving no detail in their supply chain unexamined they have become the model for bringing global goods to market. More on the blog about why I love Artisan & Fox so much and a few of my favorite pieces you'll want to add to your collection.
