Progress over Perfection
As we embark on a new year I wanna tell you it’s ok to take small actions towards things. (Sometimes we need to hear it)
It’s okay to slowly get your closet in order, to slowly sort out your style, to slowly start finding pieces that make you happy.
It doesn’t have to all happen at once.
When it comes to making better shopping choices, same thing.
There’s a lot of stuff we’re learning here when it comes to how, where, with what materials, through what processes, our clothes are being made. As we learn, we make better choices.
It’s a lot of information. It can feel overwhelming at times. And we wanna feel like we’re doing the “right thing,” that we’re making “good choices”.
This is where I really think the phrase “Progress Over Perfection” rings so true for me.
I use this as a hashtag as I post my daily outfits to show you, that even me, a Vegan Stylist, someone who cares about the animals, the planet, and all the humans, can still sometimes make choices that don’t seem “right” or “good”. But I’m learning and doing better.
Sometimes you gotta zoom out and see the bigger picture.
I still own animal skins. Because to me, if I can still use them, that is the best decision. Better for the planet, for the animal that already gave his/her life for it, the workers that were already paid a measly earning to make it.
The best thing I could do is to use/wear that item until it is beyond repair.
This is true progress for me.
Any questions? Send them my way.
Thank you all for tuning in. Wishing you a beautiful start to 2024.
✌🏽❤️ 🙂
