I've always loved rooting for the underdog or an individual who is passionate about their dreams but told they'll never make it. These people posses so much determination, focus and drive that they usually do make their goals a reality. This definitely carries over into the fashion world concerning small business. Shopping for sustainably and ethically made products can have a special added bonus. I prefer finding brands that meet my standards and then purchasing them through small shops that carry those products. This allows me to shop the brand I want, while at the same time, support small businesses. I would like to introduce you to a shop that focuses on carrying ethical and sustainable products. They have beautifully and purposefully curated their businesses to carry high quality items that help make a difference in the world. MOD + ETHICO is KILLIN it and I'd love for you to read this from their site: "We’re edgy + refined. Distinct + classic. Luxe + every day. We’re Mod + Ethico, a clothing and lifestyle store that curates modern pieces made socially responsibly and sustainably. Dedicated to providing a conscious collection, comfort and functionality, Mod + Ethico caters to the busy lifestyle of the active, urban woman. We believe that women don’t have to compromise style for their values for quality, sustainability and fair wages. Each emerging designer we feature shares our vision for a better future for fashion and meet one or more of our standards: made in the U.S.A., fair-trade practices, eco-friendly materials and small scale production." I'm so honored to have the opportunity to partner with them and share these Veja sneakers. Veja, is definitely a huge name in the sustainably and ethically made shoe world! Their designs are perfection while being rooted in purposeful and mindful creation. Their kicks come in a variety of colors with looks that cater to your personal style. Featured here, are the Veja Holiday Bastille in Rose Quartz . They are the perfect casual sneaker to dress up or down any outfit. I encourage you to visit Veja's website and read about their incredible brand. I'm blown away by the information they share concerning what materials they use, where they source them, efforts made to produce shoes sustainably and ethically, certifications as well as the design process. I don't believe they could be more transparent. Brands like this whether sustainable or not, deserve an applause when they choose to be open with their customers and reveal the inner workings of the production behind their products. Truly so inspiring and shows what can be accomplished when we work together and choose the power of community to make a difference.
