What is Greenwashing?

[eltd_dropcaps type=”normal” color=”” background_color=””]I[/eltd_dropcaps]’m sure by now, everyone connected to the internet is familiar with the term “fast fashion” and its detrimental impact on the planet. I’m here to tell you that it’s not your fault, but the fault of millionaire fashion companies that successfully brainwash us. The fast fashion industry is a mind-game, advertisement is more convincing than ever and as a society, we have the largest sum of disposable income than ever before.

eBay and Amazon launched the e-commerce industry back in 1995, when the entire online shopping market was valued at only $131 million. The Fashion and Apparel Industry Report estimated worldwide e-commerce revenue to reach $712.9 billion by 2022. We are living in an age where social media can make us feel so irrelevant for something as normal as repeating an outfit. 

How to Help your Immune System

[eltd_dropcaps type=”normal” color=”” background_color=””]S[/eltd_dropcaps]ince the lives we once knew came to a sudden standstill, health has become our overriding concern. As the cogs of the country begin to turn, and the once derelict streets show glimmers of life, an underlying uncertainty remains.

As well as keeping your distance, of course, the very best thing you can do is look after your immune system. This is your very own internal army, which needs strength to protect you from harm.

In an ideal rich girl world, I for one would be in a lot of debt but would have the most fabulous […]

How To Get Into Reading

[eltd_dropcaps type=”normal” color=”” background_color=””]I[/eltd_dropcaps]t comes as a massive shock to most people; friends, family and strangers, that I can read a book in a week and average about 25 a year, but to me not having a book on the go seems too strange to imagine because I’ve been reading for as long as I can remember. 

But then again, it isn’t for everyone. For me sure, it’s easy because I can’t stand reality TV, soaps or adverts every 15 minutes, so watching on-demand or Netflix and Amazon Prime tend to limit how often I actually sit down in front of the tv. This is why I always have a book on my bedside table and an ever-growing ‘to read’ pile congregating around my bedroom.
