This has been my go-to brand for 7 years! I used to have regular acne, dry skin, oily skin, you name it! Now, my skin is clear and hydrated. These products are vegan and affordable! I'm so excited! I've already made 9 Face Theory Sales - Thank you so much to those who purchased through my shop!

So many great gift ideas for the 2025 holiday season. Whether you are giving a lot or a little, why not buy from small/medium-sized sustainable businesses with so much charm! I will definitely be adding to my list a lot over the next few weeks, but here are some of my favorites to kick off the holiday season! Let's go!

Christmas is coming! In previous years, that meant a lot of toys, but this year my son has asked for some more classy, thoughtful gifts. And, my husband needs life essentials to make his day-to-day life easier and perhaps a little more stylish. Additionally, we have grandparents, cousins, friends, and teachers on our list, so let's go Christmas 2025!

So many great options for cold fall/winter days! A cozy coat starts off the perfect outfit for shopping, longs walks, or meeting friends for lunch of hot drinks. I've included some of my favorite denim jeans along with classic cream cardigans, blouses and a great selection of crossbody bags or totes. All from ethical, sustainable brands!

I have been obsessed with these Rain Jackets for Years! So many great colors and designs, I need to own more than one. Whether I'm walking amongst Medieval Castles, hiking in the mountains, or walking on the beach, these jackets deserve some epic travel adventures!

This season’s chicest look blends the softness of corduroy with refined prints and feminine accents. There are so many great pieces here. From the must-have Navy corduroy blazer to the midi skirt inspired by Florence tiles. The slingbacks and the knee highs, and of course, some great bags. And promise me you'll zoom in on the blouse. The delicate flower details on the cuff are everything!

So many great new things in my closet! And more I have my eye on. I definitely have enough dresses, but I've been searching for Autumn, Spring Transitional footwear for ages. I like to wear dresses and skirts, but I also walk a lot. So, I need shoes that are dainty but also comfortable. I think I found them! As well, there are so many lovely blouses this season. I don't know what to do…except tell you about them!

Lots of great knitwear this season. Here are some of my favorites from ethical, sustainable brands that always knock their knitwear out of the park! Fancy a large embroidered Owl on your cardigan, or a cozy oatmeal pullover, a fisherman's cable knit? We've got it all! Some of these recommendations include affiliate links, and others are mentioned because I'm a huge fan of the brands. Take a Look!

The perfect look for the office or a busy weekend. The perfect denim skirt meets the perfect geometric autumn hued cardigan!

How to be perfectly dressed for the Autumn season with a hint a haunted drama. I love this look. The dress is just the right mix of orange and rust hues juxtaposed against black. And the Accessories!! So many great options.

Check out my list of great gifts at various price points. New friends or lifers, family or coworkers, these gifts will have people singing your praises… and not secretly re-gifting!

I need to start talking about all of the gorgeous Fall tote bags! It all started with the Saffron colored Vegan leather hobo bag, and I knew I needed to make a list! Check out my list of wonderful products from some of the worlds best vegan brands.

OMNES UK is a great sustainable brand with so many well-priced casual and dressy garments. Whether you are planning a special event like a wedding or anniversary party, or just need classic casual looks for daily life, OMNES UK is a great place to start. They take great pride in designing and manufacturing their products in sustainable ways with ethical practices.

This outfit strikes a balance between comfort and elegance. A navy cardigan layered over a soft blouse adds a polished touch, while the floral skirt brings color and movement. Structured laptop bags make the look professional enough for work, while ballet flats or vegan patent leather sling-backs bring shimmer and shine. I love this look. Lots of textures and patterns mixed together for a quiet, chic silhouette.

Happy Early Harvest! The autumn season is just getting started with some early items to spruce up our wardrobes. I'm pretty sure I need everything on this board at some point throughout the chilly season. From this perfect cardigan - yes, please, mixing bright colors with beige and brown, to the scuba-inspired rainboots! These are perfect for a snug-fitted leg and a comfortable heel. If you are in the market for denim this year, it will be tough to decide what to buy! Practically all of my favorite brands have created gorgeous denim midi length skirts with different details and colors. A lighter blue or dark blue, buttons or side/back zipper, flowy skirt or straight - there are so many options! As well, there are so many great shades of brown and beige in the tote department. I'm usually always featuring chocolate-hued totes as they are easier to match with shoes, but this season is bringing us so many shades of brown. What are you looking for this fall season? A new vegan watch or vegan suede loafers, perhaps? Tell me!

I don't usually feature items with wool, but this sweater by Palava Clothing is so exquisite and made with locally sourced wool. I'm such a huge fan of this brand, and if you appreciate garments made from local or recycled materials in small batches, then you must check out their website. Omnes UK makes some really great dresses for all occasions. This beautiful velvet dress could easily be a bridesmaid dress for an autumn or winter wedding, but I could also see it with a lovely sweater and Mary Janes or knee-high boots as an elegant workday ensemble. What do you think? Of course, the V.gan Knee high boots are one of my personal favorites(I now own them in black and brown), and these Bohema Mary Janes are just the right mix of casual and dressy. And last but not least, this lovely Prev bag. The shape, the color, the texture - this brand gets me every time.

Every item on this page makes me feel cozy. Like I'm walking out in the cool crisp air with swirling leaves, but I'm so toasty warm and comfortable. From the velvet loafers or sneakers, to the corduroy overalls and quilted denim jacket - this roundup sings comfort. Additionally, there are some lovely watches and backpacks in standard vegan leathers and more luxurious apple leathers—a nice way to elevate our daily accessories.

Just a few of my Fall season recommendations! Items that can fit easily into any wardrobe. That go-to dress for a last minute dinner out, that timeless clutch for the symphony, or maybe some perfect loafers or knee high boots - Autumn never looked so good!

I'm soaking up the last few weeks of summer, but my mind has already moved on to all of the wonderful fall fashions! This collection of items has me pining for a more glamorous life so I can make good use of all these lovely things!
