It’s Organic September, and my last post was an introduction into the world of Organic buying and why we choose to do that plus some ways we save money whilst making it a priority. You can find that blog here.

This is just a quick intro to 12 of my favourite organic brands. What are some of yours?

Day 8 comes with a list of amazing brands for wardrobe basics; mainly plain tees, cami’s and jumpers. If you are at the start of an ethical journey and looking to buy more sustainably, slowly replacing old basics as and when you need is a great place to start as they are more affordable than the bigger items and it’s usually the cost of ethical clothing that is one of the biggest barriers to why people don’t or can’t buy more sustainably.

‘How do I know if a company or brand is ethical?’ is one of the questions I find myself answering the most in my private messages. That question often comes hand in hand with other questions about the cost of ethical clothing, where ethical clothing brands can be found and where on earth to start with creating an ethical wardrobe. While I don’t have all the answers- (I’m very much figuring things out as I go) I wanted to create a space on here for those questions to be answered, looked over, and to hand you a bunch of resources to make buying ethically and in turn buying well so much more accessible.

We live in a cottage in the West Sussex countryside and while I wouldn’t say our house is clean or even in any particular order, I can’t seem to rest until the washing up is done or sleep until the surfaces are somewhat clean.

The kitchen is probably the place where people find the majority of their cleaning products. One thing I’ve learnt in this process is shops are selling a lot of things! There’s a cleaner for your counters, and your sink, and greasy surfaces and sticky surfaces and scummy sinks and products to clean your bin and clean your dishwasher. The result of seeing so many products on shelves is that it makes us believe we need a new product for every single different area in our homes.
