The majority of clothing being manufactured today wasn’t made for anybody but rather an unrealistic ideal and is made to be worn a few times and replaced. Keeping prices low and new styles churning out has created a monster. And it’s hurting our planet, our businesses and our spirits. The ever shortening lifecycle of clothing reflects that culturally we value physical beauty but not the people who create the beautiful items. Now I know YOU care deeply and that YOU ARE DIFFERENT. But the truth is fashion is an unregulated industry and it can be hard to identify, find and afford #qualityFashion items. Make a #FashionStatement and use these guidelines to find quality products. Research clothing brands before you shop with them - the Good Buy App is a great resource where you can search brand ratings and find why they’re rated the way they’re rated. Check return policies when shopping online and search the website for their “about” info, manufacturers country of origin info and look to see if they have any sustainability policies. Shop with reputable brands you know and trust. Shop in person vs online so you can touch and feel the fabric and check the seams. Actually look inside the garment to see if it looks like it is well constructed and the seams are stable. You can gently press the seams apart and if you see threads stressed you’ll most likely tear a seam when you wear it. Check zippers before you buy! Cheap zippers are the bane of my existence as a #SustainableStylist! A garment made with inferior components is useless, and that goes for the fabric. Check the tag for fiber content (Natural fibers like cotton, linen and silk are durable and have smaller carbon footprints than poly blends which deposit microplastics into the water system every time you wash.) Check if you can see through the fabric by holding it up to the light (not all fabrics are supposed to be heavy or thick, but you don’t want something to stretch apart into nothing after the first time you wear it.) Shop vintage and handmade to find high quality and unique items, decades ago quality standards were much higher because people needed their clothing to last longer! #clothingshoppingtips (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqIe_A5uJBL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Take a walk on the wild side! I love #selfExpression through #personalStyle and talk often about details that can either fast track or hijack your #style. Nails are a great space for expression! This #hybridManicure is bright, bold, colorful and fun. It’s also stretching out a #gelmanicure without being noticeable. The up close thumb pic shows how much it’s grown out but the #CheetahPrint clear #nailStrip overlay disguises that. The middle finger of my manicure flaked off on vacation so I used another complimentary nail strip and then applied the same overlay. Stretching out this manicure in style! No chipped nails! If you want to try a clear Color Street overlay on top of polish let me know! I have tips and recommendations! If you want to learn more about fast tracking your personal style sign up for early access to my upcoming #StyleConfidence Challenge, link in bio! #cheetahmanicure #neonanimalprint #getthemostoutofyourmanicure #manicureevolution (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGELouO5Xc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today I had the pleasure of speaking at @theithacahighschool for their #SocialJusticeWeek. I talked about #sustainability, #fastfashion, emotional/environmental and ethical issues and #FashionRevolution. At the top of my linktr.ee in bio is the #JoinTheRevolution link which will take you to a sign up page to receive a comprehensive resource rich email with lots of information, solutions and action items! Next month @fash_rev turns 9 and this May #Themis and Thread TURNS TEN! We answered the #wakeupcall that was the Rana Plaza factory collapse and created solutions and alternatives to the unjust fashion system. I love seeing the good that has come from the awareness of such a harrowing tragedy but I will never forget that on April 24th 2013 1,138 people were killed and over 2,000 were injured in the world’s deadliest garment factory accident when the Rana Plaza factory collapsed in #DhakaBangladesh. This was an avoidable disaster that was caused by production and deadline pressure to satiate the fast fashion appetite of the Western world an ocean away. #whomademyclothes #fashionethics #businessethics #globaleconomy (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqD1wN0JDQp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I had some really incredible shopping experiences in Puerto Rico. I met a couple local designers and bought a maxi dress from the woman who designed it and also splits her time between Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic working with sex trafficking victims. I met a couple shopkeepers who offered great product lines and bought crystals from a young woman who had the coolest beachside shop environment. As a designer and a shopkeeper myself it felt so exciting to experience and support these people and places. Doing it with my bestie who I co-own @hectorhandmade with made it all the sweeter. Especially in tourist areas shopkeepers and the products they offer make a huge impact on people; The stories, intentions and quality reflect on the culture (whether they like it or not and whether it’s “good or bad”!) It’s an honor to experience and it’s an honor to facilitate 🥰 I love Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 #vacationmode #holiday #rincon #puertorico #rinconshopping #puertoricoshopping #travel #tropicalahopping #shopkeeper #designer #spreadthelove #tourism #economy #globaleconomy #educatedeconomy #shoppingexperience #experience #immersion (at Rincón, Puerto Rico) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_Xs1fJQfH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m not toned and trim, I don’t have a smooth hairless body, I‘m not in love with my skin color, but I wore a bikini in Puerto Rico last week on the beach and celebrated life. My chaffed thighs and bikini bumps and cellulite saw the sun and I ate meat on a stick and drank fancy cocktails without worrying about calories or what other people thought. If any of this makes you cringe, thinking “Good for you, but no way could I possibly…” here’s the secret —it’s HARD and it takes a lot of WORK. Not hard work to “not care” or to manipulate my body into a configuration “I can deal with”, it takes a lot of hard work looking at myself and accepting myself and retraining my brain. What I have learned can be applied to anyone anywhere who has the courage to face and embrace themselves. Stop sidelining yourself. Stop missing out. Stop limiting yourself. It’s a mindset makeover, that’s what I’ve created with Fashion Therapy and it’s freeing and transformational AND I’m gearing up to give everyone a taste of it for free with my upcoming Shine and Rise Style Confidence Challenge!

For #WomensHistoryMonth I’ve been showcasing incredible women who exhibit rising feminine leadership and the powerful messages that drive them to shine. I hope you have found inspiration to develop your unique voice too. I’m not too proud to share my own image and message within this container because showing up, standing out and serving my purpose is what I support other women in doing and I know the more examples we see of that the better. When asking women to #showUp in their unique style of #FeminineLeadership I’m also asking myself to see them as their Higher Self —which is my superpower. My mission is to help women feel good in their bodies and to give you permission to allow yourself to look and feel great while doing the important work you were put here to do —be it loving your family, empowering women, spreading information, healing people, protecting the planet or a million other hopes and dreams. When we let ourselves look and feel great we are better at everything we do, and what you are here to do is so important. Fashion and beauty has taught me so much and also has so many problems. The bigger the problem, the bigger the impact once change begins, so I LOVE tackling big issues with powerful women and have watched countless success stories! What I have learned can be applied to anyone anywhere who has the courage to #faceandembrace themselves. It’s all about a #mindsetmakeover, which is what I’ve created with #FashionTherapy and it’s #freeing and #transformational AND I’m gearing up to give everyone a taste of it for free with my upcoming #ShineandRise #StyleConfidence Challenge! Get early access now through the link in bio! If you want to tap into improving your impact and influence like @responsible_forwardfashion @jennie_scarbrough @ramyajulian @jocelynrosewellness @jerakahheady @haejones32 @recycle_bridal_boutique through feminine leadership and I have done you’ll want to get early access to our upcoming #shineandrisechallenge! Join me and these #risingStars to finish Women’s History Month off strong with spirited style support designed to help align, define and shine your Personal Style to 10X impact, influence and SELF image in 5 days.

We have been sharing incredible women who exhibit rising feminine leadership and the powerful messages that drive them to shine for Women’s History Month this past week and I’m stoked to introduce you to Stephanie Satchouk. As a sister slow fashion movement change maker she’s a gal after my own heart! Stephanie owns Recycle Bridal Boutique, a second hand bridal shop in San Ramon, California which was voted Best Bridal Shop in the East Bay in 2022! She says “Everything in my shop has been bought second hand - even the furniture! I take dresses back from my happily married brides, and consign them, so they have yet another lifecycle of re-use. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the demand for new goods dropped significantly? We can get there… and then companies would produce less, meaning less toxic water, dyes and chemicals ending up in our waterways, soil and air! I do everything I can to reduce, reuse, and recycle. For example, in my shop, I reuse shipping materials when mailing a dress. I use my dress tags twice/on both sides before they go into the recycling bin. I serve water from a pitcher, in washable glasses instead of individual waters in plastic bottles. I reuse garment bags when the bride takes her dress home. I don’t print receipts; I email them. Bags in the shop are secondhand-you might get a Trader Joe’s bag!” #recycledbridal #slowfashion #sanramonbridal #bossbabe #womanownedbusiness #westcoastbride #FeminineLeadership #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #feminist#femalerolemodels #inspiration #femaleleader (at San Ramon, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpxbPzfuhKX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hannah Jones is a community creator and healer and I’m thrilled to share about her and her important work within the queer community right here in the Finger Lakes. Hannah says writing poetry is how she best expresses herself so please enjoy this poem which she wrote in anticipation of a diversity class she was preparing to lead: Sometimes I sit and I wonder about how a class may be Will they come together Or fall apart Will they stay What will happen outside of the classroom to pull them away Sometimes I sit and I wonder about how a class may learn Can we learn together. Sit with racism Slide into conversations of sexism Homophobia Will we have the ability to challenge our thoughts Lean into being uncomfortable And stay kind to our neighbor Sometimes I sit and wonder about how I can be in a class How can I show you I'm vulnerable And in charge How can I show you we are equal And yet the power I hold should make you mad For we are here together. Our stories follow us into this room and wait patiently to continue as we leave. They can haunt us during conversations Support us during activities And either way. Today we become a part of each other's. So let's begin (Can you imagine your teacher sharing this with you at the beginning of a course?! What honest leadership!) #diversity #soflx #lgbtq #lgbtqleadership #flxlgbtq #corningny #teacherapprrciation #teacher #diversityclass #FeminineLeadership #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #soflx #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #feminist#femalerolemodels #inspiration #femaleleader #flxpride #soflxpride #corningqueercommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CpvQfW6Oh2T/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Continuing with our Woman Rising series in celebration of Women’s History Month I’m honored to feature my #CleanBeauty gal pal and Beautycounter Mentor Jocelyn who has made a #MultiPassionateCareer for herself in Canada. Jocelyn Rose Wellness is a merging of passions, rituals, self-care and love. She says, “I help women carve out the time for daily self-care practices, and realize it does not have to feel like a burden. Even just pressing pause on the inner chatter to notice our breath can be deeply transformative. Too often we tend to all the needs of others over our Selves. I share in the modalities of Yoga, Mantra, Mindset, BreathWork, Non-Toxic Living and Clean Beauty as SelfCare with Beautycounter.” #FeminineLeadership #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #feminist#femalerolemodels #inspiration #femaleleader #bcworks #leadersinclean #selfcare #selflove #divinefeminine #breathwork #yogainstructor #canadianyogi #cleanbeautyyogi #cleanliving #reducingchemicalexposure (at Toronto Ontario Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CppZc3Cuskt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m excited to introduce you to the next incredible female leader in our Woman Rising series! Meet Ramya Julian, a tri-lingual Indian born author and illustrator who lives and creates with her family in London. Ramya’s focus is EMPOWERMENT - “of women, mothers, and others who haven't been able to reach the full limit of their potential by virtue (not virtue, actually) of their sex, race, religion, gender, nationality, caste, and every other real and imaginary rule. I'm hoping to spread this message through the medium of art - writing and illustrating - by featuring diverse heroes in picture books and featuring unlikely heroines in my novels, which are usually historical women's fiction.” Ramya’s books often rhyme while sharing important historical content focused on female leaders in history. Her illustrations are delightful and her #WonderfulWorldBookSeries collection is surely helping families around the world raise caring, empathic, female respecting, empowered children with images and stories about amazing and important women in history! #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #feminist#femalerolemodels #inspiration #femaleauthors #femaleillustrators #historicalwomensfiction #herstory #womeninstem #adalovelace #tamil #hindi #authorillustrator #femalelondonauthor #femalechildrensbookauthor #tamilwomanauthor #womensfiction #indianwomanauthor #empoweredwomenempowerwomen #feministchildrensbooks #empowerment (at London, Unιted Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpm2CKwOXJB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today I’m shining the spotlight on an incredible human, my best friend Jennie Scarbrough —whose birthday just happens to be today 🎉 Jennie is an ever changing multidisciplinary artist and entrepreneur. For the past 6 years she and I have co-created the Finger Lakes New York Gift Shop and Gallery, @HectorHandmade where we’re cooking up some merging and emerging dreamscapes steeped in feminine creativity. Creativity and art have always been a part of Jennie’s life, she has created watercolor art collections, painted album cover art, created photography collections, curated many beautiful spaces and amazing events, is now trying her hand at refinishing furniture, has always been a writer and up for learning and growing in new and beautiful ways and has worked very hard to lead an artful and thoughtful 40 years of life (we’re celebrating her today in Puerto Rico!) Jennie is also an airBnB Super Host and Vacation Rental Property Manager and lives and loves with her amazing husband Jason who is a Finger Lakes Realtor. She’s a badass and I couldn’t have experienced my creative life this powerfully without her! #FeminineLeadership #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #femalerolemodels #bossbabe #curator #galleryowner #shopkeeper #entrepreneur #artist #divinefeminine #creativity #creativespirit #femininecreativity #change #changemaker #blissseeker #superhost #flxvacationrental #flxrealtor #flxgallery (at Rincón, Puerto Rico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpkUe0AOIY7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy International Women’s Day! I am thrilled to kick off @themisandthread’s Woman Rising series today with L. Griselda Pagoada! Lilian is a sustainable fashion, art, and culture advocate. When she discovered the negative impacts of the fashion industry, she was deeply upset and concerned. As a result, she decided to help create awareness about it. She creates educational content about sustainable fashion and speaks about how to be environmental and social activists through fashion. Lilian’s a native Honduran, living in Ithaca, NY for the past 6 years. She is a content creator for the nonprofit Slow Fashion Movement Global, the Región Leader of Slow Fashion Movement LATAM and the Public Relations Coordinator for the nonprofit Mayor Potencial … as well as the Founder of her own jewelry brand Lili Upcycled Jewelry! #FeminineLeadership #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenOnTheRise #InternationalWomensDay #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #femalerolemodels #sustainablestyle #HonduranActivist #Honduran #IthacaNY #Honduras #slowfashionmovement #slowfashion #fashionactivism #fashionactivist #environmentalist #environmentalactitvist (at Ithaca, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cphvf6KOF6I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lead like a woman! The intuitive grace and adaptability that is the building blocks of #FeminineLeadership is exactly what the world needs more of right now. It’s #WomensHistoryMonth and tomorrow is #InternationalWomansDay and I can’t think of a better time to shine some light on #RisingWomen. The voices of female identifiers are needed now more than ever and I’m so excited to showcase some very special styles of Feminine Leadership and the unique perspectives of #WomenOnTheRise. The scale has been tipped and the pendulum must swing. Now is the time for #WomanRising. Woman Rising is a special series featuring ✅ incredible women who exhibit rising feminine leadership and ✅ the powerful messages that drive them to shine. ❇️ Maybe you’ll find someone who inspires you to develop your unique voice too. In my opinion the greatest thing about Woman Rising is that these women are leaders with proven track records who continue to strive and rise —KNOWING there is always more for them, limitless and changing dreams, higher and higher heights. Woman Rising is not about the goal, it’s about the growth 💥 #LeadLikeaWoman #LeadYourOwnWay #FeminineLeadershipShines #ShineAndRise #RisingWomen #WomanRising #strive #thrive #femalerolemodels (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpfkeIluajt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
