Can You Buy Stylish And Ethical? By The Belle Blog

So many of our style and fashion choices hinges on picking the right things. From the right jewelry to the right fragrance, to the right hairstyle. And when we work hard at perfect in our style, what can knock us for six is if everything we have chosen is not particularly ethical. Some people don't care, but if you want to have a stylish wardrobe and you need to know that everything you've purchased has come from somewhere with basic human values, some people wonder if it's possible to buy something stylish and ethical at the same time. So let's have a look at what you what you could do...

Purchasing From The Ethical Labels
Once upon a time, ethical labels only did a handful of clothes, and they weren't particularly flattering. But now, there are more brands out there pushing the ethical aspect. In addition to this, there are online marketplaces that can help steer you in the right direction, such as Sustainable Fashion. And don't forget the right apps. The Good On You app rates the mainstream clothing brands based on the publicly available information.  

Choosing Ethical Jewelry
The same applies to jewelry, but with jewelry, it's a little bit more difficult to find if the jewelry has been sourced ethically. While there are more publicized aspects of ethical jewelry, especially the movie Blood Diamond that highlighted the issue of “conflict” diamonds, what you can do is go to the supplier and really quiz them on their knowledge. Sometimes it's straightforward, but there are times we'll have to do a little bit more digging. https://yourdiamondguru.com/reviews/blue-nile/ provides some detailed information about the Blue Nile brand, meaning that you can make your own decisions before you venture into the store. But there are numerous ethical jewelry brands that flaunt the sustainable approach. Alighieri, Tuza, and Wald Berlin being three of many out there.

Making The Most Of What You've Got
A lot of people decide to throw their clothes out as soon as a hole is found. Instead, if you're looking to be more sustainable and ethical, get into the habit of mending your clothes. You'd be surprised as to how much of a movement this is, especially when you look at websites like https://visiblemending.com/ that are pushing this sustainable lifestyle. The fact is, most clothing issues are easily fixed. But we choose to throw clothes out quickly and without thought, primarily because this gives us the opportunity to buy some new clothes. But, it's not just about hanging onto your old clothes so you can get as much life out of them, you can start to alter your wardrobe by making some changes to the existing items you've got.

Being stylish is hard work. Being ethical is even harder. To ensure that you've got a wardrobe of stylish yet ethical choices, it can be a long journey to get there. It's about finding the right suppliers, but it's also about taking the initiative yourself. It is possible to be stylish these days, and it's most definitely possible to be ethical.
