5 reasons to shop from your wardrobe more… #NoBuyChallenge ??
Okay, so I have a confession to make: I’m a bit of a shopaholic. It probably has something to do with the fact that I’m a (part time) blogger, but over the past year I’ve found myself constantly buying new clothes. I had this moment a while back where I looked around my bedroom and just kind of thought “Whoa there, girl… you have waaaaaaaay too much stuff.” So what did I do? I set myself a challenge not to buy any new clothes for the whole of October (shocker, I know) and guess what? I absolutely smashed it. I’ve found myself really enjoying my #NoBuyChallenge, so I thought I’d…

Shaded: The 9 best and worst High Street Retailers for Diversity In Fashion ?️?️
DIVERSITY: Noun /daɪˈvɜː(r)səti/ – The state of being diverse. DIVERSE: Adjective /dʌɪˈvəːs,ˈdʌɪvəːs/ – Showing a great deal of variety; very different. It’s something that’s so incredibly important, but unfortunately, in retail, it’s often forgotten about… or worse, totally ignored. Growing up, the lack of women who looked like me in the media was definitely something I noticed, but becoming a blogger in the past year has really opened my eyes to just how far the fashion industry has to go with inclusivity and diversity. As much as I love blogging, I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t been a little discouraging seeing just how uninclusive the blogging sphere can be……
