Confessions Of An E-Comm Stylist, The World’s Tallest Closet and Fake News
Hello Readers
I hope you are all enjoying the run up to Christmas! Personally, I love the festive season but it can be super stressful. I know a lot of people struggle at this time, especially if you are alone or missing people so take care. I’m spending Christmas at home in Amsterdam – we are veggie so hoping to cook a variation of this. Christmas for us is usually quite chilled, we eat and walk the dogs somewhere quiet and that’s about it.
Here are the sustainable fashion reading links for this week. I would recommend reading the Confessions of an E-Comm stylist if you ever buy clothes online!
