Why fast fashion is slow death for the planet →
This article is really interesting, fast fashion is a real bug bear of mine, but something I am (as I’m sure you are) guilty of buying into at one time or another.

It's been a while...
I fell out of love with writing my blog over a year a go now, but with more new work to be excited about and so many items worthy of re-blogging recently I’ve found myself practically itching to give the virtual conversation space my ten pence worth!
