The Honest Consumer Ethical Fashion & Sustainable Living
A little shameless self promotion here…if you’re reading this hopefully you’re already subscribed.
I created this blog in 2016 after being inspired and wanting to create a trustworthy outlet for people to find products with an impact, but have since expanded to include other aspects of mindful living.
I wanted to be honest about how I was living my life and encourage others that imperfect sustainability is okay. Mindful living looks different for everybody! That’s why I created resources to give people easy tips for getting started.
Mindfulness and sustainability are journeys - we’re all learning as we go.
The Honest Consumer blog focuses on ethical fashion, sustainable living, mental health, non-toxic living, low waste lifestyle, and more. You can learn a bit more about my journey here.
Forage & Sustain’s Clean Beauty & Sustainable Travel
Forage & Sustain is a great blog to learn about living a complete sustainable lifestyle. You’ll find tips on sustainable travel, clean beauty & wellness, ethical fashion, and eco-friendly living.
One of the main visions of Forge & Sustain is, “to create a new generation of conscious individuals who rise above the status quo, who look beyond the surface, and who are determined to do their part in being active agents of social change.”
Forage and Sustain accomplishes this by encouaging their community to dive into intersectionality, reciprocity, and accessibility.

This online platform explores ways to create a better, more sustainable and equitable future for fashion — and the world — with resources that support a mindful lifestyle, curations of environmentally and socially-responsible lifestyle brands, and deep dives into systemic challenges.
