Sustainable fashion faves #3

Jun 8, 2018 | 1 comment

The month of May flew by in a blink of an eye (so cliché, but nevertheless true) which means it’s time for another round of sustainable fashion faves; my “new” returning series, where I’m gathering together all my favourite sustainable styles and items from different webshops. It’s a little bit of everything this time around, and I especially managed to find a great bunch of secondhand items. The straw hat and the Levi’s shorts are so ‘right now’ and perfect for any holiday, and both are items you can bring out summer after summer. The grey blazer in the top left corner is from & Other Stories and even though I know this brands is not exactly known for ethical and sustainable production, I just had to share it with you guys! You all know how much I love my grey blazer from Everlane, which is unfortunately still sold out (they expect to restock it when we reach fall, and I bet they’ll have international shipping again at that point) and I just know I’m gonna be wearing that blazer for years to come. In my opinion the blazer from & Other Stories is just a beautiful and timeless, so in the end it could be a good investment if your style uniform (like mine) mostly consists of pants, a top and a blazer/jacket. I’ve not been using my blazers a lot the past month or so, but that’s only because we’ve been having amazing weather in Denmark for so many weeks now, it’s just been too hot. But this past winter and also during spring, I wore it at least once a week! I also absolutely LOVE the round Ray Ban’s, which are also secondhand and therefore being sold for a really reasonable price.

Maj måned forsvandt med lynets hast (så kliché, men altså stadig sandt), og det er tid til endnu en omgang sustainable fashion faves; min “nye” tilbagevendende serie her på bloggen, hvor jeg hjælper jer med, at finde de fineste bæredygtige items rundt omkring på nettet. Det blev lidt en blandet landhandel denne gang, og jeg faldt især over nogle super fine genbrugsfund. Stråhatten og shorts’ne fra Levi’s er jo begge super anvendelige her om sommeren og til ferien sydpå, og begge dele er noget som du vil kunne hive frem fra gemmerne år efter år. Blazeren øverst i venstre hjørne er fra & Other Stories, og selvom jeg godt ved dette brand ikke ligefrem er kendt for hverken etisk eller bæredygtig produktion, så måtte jeg bare dele den med jer! I ved jeg elsker min grå blazer fra Everlane, som desværre stadig er udsolgt (den forventes dog at komme på lager igen til efteråret hvor jeg er sikker på de også vil køre international shipping igen!) og jeg ved bare jeg kommer til at bruge denne blazer mange år i fremtiden. I min optik er den grå blazer fra & Other stories mindst ligeså smuk og tidløs, så i sidste ende er den en god investering, hvis din stil-uniform (ligesom min) primært består af bukser, en top og en jakke/blazer. Nu har jeg ikke brugt mine blazere (jakker i det hele taget) ret meget den sidste måneds tid, fordi vejret har været så skønt, men både i vinters og gennem foråret røg den grå blazer på minimum en gang om ugen! Jeg er desuden også VILD med de runde retro-agtige briller fra Ray Ban, som også er fundet i en brugt udgave og altså ligger til en rigtig fin pris.
