Sporting Chic

So with winter on the way, I know, like most I tend to eat a little bit more and become a little less active as the cold takes over and going outside or making it too the gym when it's dark loses it's appeal. However I am determined to keep to my healthy lifestyle, as there is no better feeling than the reward of  clothes fitting perfectly, feeling fit and having the energy to keep going around the clock. Growing up in South Africa, this time of the year we would be going into our summer and enjoying lots of street and beach parties and I try to keep that summer feeling in heart going even when it's snowing. There is plenty of inspiration around especially with the Olympics earlier this year and sport stars being such great role models for healthy living and shows like strictly come dancing where we see people shrink in front of our eyes.

Stylish Bath tales

Every now and then you just need to get out of the city, town or village you live in and have an explore no matter how far or close it is to home.

Eco Fashion love

So whenever possible I always try and support green campaigns, especially when it comes to Arthur, I feel much better knowing that he is wearing organic, fair trade or recycled cotton made in a sustainable way rather than not know where it came from - and possibly a sweatshop (often we don't know how our clothes are made). So this post is about highlighting 3 current campaigns from three very popular fashion labels. H&M have been stocking organic clothing for a longtime although now they are really starting to expand the line. Everything in the Conscious Collection is made from environmentally friendly materials such as organic cotton and linen to recycled wool and plastic (for accessories). They are really showing other retailers the way forward with regards to being green, stylish and affordable and I have to say I am very impressed with their current collection. More high-end brands are also getting involved with good causes such as Tommy Hilfigers Promise campaign......
