6 Reasons To Shop Small and Shop Local This Holiday Season [And All Year Long]

Leave a Comment on 6 Reasons To Shop Small and Shop Local This Holiday Season [And All Year Long]

Do you know that following Black Friday is Small Business Saturday?  We’ve got 6 reasons for you to skip the big box stores, start shopping …

  • Happy International Whale Day 🐋 did you know that the whaling industry in the 1800s decimated 99% of the blue whale population? Before then millions of blues roamed the great blue, today between 10,000-20,000 #whale #vertemode
  • In the last few years, the pool of brands upholding ethical standards, and sustainability has rapidly grown, allowing the everyday consumer to fill their closets with more conscious options. As consumers, we’ve become increasingly conscious about our purchases, to make a positive difference for the people involved in the making of our clothes and goods and for our planet.

If you're making the shift to a completely ethical wardrobe, We’ve rounded up some great ethical alternatives to the everyday brands we used to shop: Link in Bio.
  • With almost 4 million hashtag uses for Sustainable Fashion alone, we can see there is a huge interest in the matter. I mean, there is a severe crisis going on, so it's quite reassuring to see it's not just a handful of people who care.

However, some of the things I hear or read about sustainable fashion are quite inaccurate (not to say dead wrong or pure lies), so let's bust some of these myths right now, and make sure we know what the whole thing is about.
  • With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, some of us are feeling the urge to buy ourselves lingerie that makes us feel both sexy and confident. What we wear underneath our clothes is as important – if not more – as the fashionable apparel we put on. It isn't just pesticides on textile crops that makes clothes toxic. They're often coated with a whole host of chemicals. Underwear gets in touch with our most intimate parts of the skin and feels like seeking organic cotton or other eco & skin-friendly materials to avoid the cocktail of chemicals is the minimum we should do. Therefore, We’ve selected the best brands to align with your ethical and sustainable values, but also to bring awareness to keep your intimate parts healthy. Link in Bio.
  • Not all tea is created equal and many high-street brews contain plastic hidden in their tea bags – this means they can’t be composted and may leech microplastics. But which tea brands can you trust? Our vertemode team of testers have been sampling the best in ethical tea, with no leaf left unturned. While there are significant challenges facing the industry, there are sustainable and ethical tea brands paving a better way for the planet and the growers behind our tea. Time to sit back and put the kettle on. Link in Bio.
