This month’s sustainable fashion brand is People Tree. I picked them for two main reasons:
1. They were founded in Asia and have expanded with another Headquarter in Europe. To me that shows how much demand and potential sustainability in fashion has.
2. Their collection is setting itself apart from the usual eco-fair brands. It was hard to only pick 5 faves, cause I’d basically buy anything from their clothing line.
This brand proves that sustainability and fashionability can go hand in hand!

Today’s inspiration for feminism is a quote from a man.
Dr. Marsden Wagner, born in San Francisco (USA), studied at UCLA perinatology and perinatal science. He worked for six years as Director of the Research Center for Health at the University of Copenhagen, and for another 15 years he headed the Department of Women’s and Child Health of the WHO, where he remained an independent consultant until his death in 2014.
I got to know about Dr. Marsden Wagner through my birth preparation classes. My instructor mentioned the quote which I want to share with you today:

This week I want to introduce you to the brand Minga Berlin.
Nina Simone. The first black female classic pianist. Songwriter. Singer. Rebel.
Netflix’s documentary ‘What happened Miss Simone?’ gives a great insight on her life. I personally did not know much about her but after watching it I have to say that I believe she does not get the attention and appreciation for the glass ceilings she broke for women and especially black women in America.
