I’ve been busy networking this week: the launch of Claire Huggins 's ME Network at The Centurion Club, Nicky Elliott 's Wilder Collective in London and Netwalking with Virginia Cinquemani Women in Sustainability Cafe, plus High Net Connect on the agenda. I’ve connected with some incredible women, and met lots of new faces.

Sunday Sustainable Fashion Pick
Our Sunday Sustainable Fashion Pick this week are these amazing Adidas Gazelle Bold's that I managed to bag on Vinted last week, and my new fun socks from Glassworks London, which I bought on my trip to Spitalfields this week! As you know my wow colours are pink and red so this is a match made in heaven for me.
This combination made me so happy! It's incredible that dopamine hit that you can get from your clothing when you wear something that you love. It has also been proven that we often get more enjoyment from clothing we buy secondhand, or from small businesses, because of the meaning behind the purchase.
If you head over to my instagram you can find a reel which showcases another way that I've been styling these trainers.

It saves you time and money and gives you the confidence to try things you would never have looked at! Find out more and book on the link HERE...
Things I Enjoyed This Week...
I loved attending Graduate Fashion Week on Tuesday this week as a guest, seeing all of the inspiring student's creations was fabulous, and I loved visting the Love Not Landfill preloved pop up with Shelter and Crisis charities. I bought my husbands Father's Day present but nothing for myself! My favourite part of the day was listening to the talk on Fashion In A Climate Crisis: How You Can Be The Change.
My biggest takeaway was that we're all suffering from overwhelm and overconsumption, we have too much stuff! So the biggest challenge is mindset and overcoming conditioning. There is still so much to do on government legislation but it is a complex subject. Overall I left with hope for future generations of what's happening and the people in this sustainability community championing change!
I'd recommend following @sexyclimatechange @thefashionpsychologist_ on instagram.

8 个月Sounds like you had an amazing week in line with your values! Thank you for joining the Women in Sustainability Network Café netwalk... It was lovely to see you (for the third time in a week)! You might not imagine how much of an impact you already had on the way I think of my style!
Even if I mostly know what to wear, I find your approach to style useful for the impact that has to our wellbeing, not just for 'How we look', Alex
