Hello lovelies, finally Ive got my mess together (ish) and our new website is up and running I have more time to write, or type I suppose. What do you think of our site by the way? I have been working closely with the lads at Instamedia on it for months now trying to perfect it, ok maybe its not perfect, yet, but we are getting there! Really excited about our new branding also, which shall be unveiled in the coming weeks…
Anyhow back to the matter at hand, affordable Ethical Fashion & Accessories, is their such a thing? I hear it over and over again, I would love to shop Ethical, but I just can not afford it! I say nonsense to that, their are so many great Ethical & Eco brands that design amazing pieces at super price points, you just need to do a little searching, but I’m gonna make that easy for you. Each week Ill show you my latest discovery in Ethical Clothing & Accessories.
This week its all about accessories, because we all know that great outfits start with great accessories. You cannot go wrong investing in some classic Gold pieces and Ethical company UNA offers some seriously stunning statement pieces. Its kind of bizarre how I came across this great brand. Sadly I lost my Auntie in May, a beautiful person inside and out, she pretty much brought me up and has left a huge void in our lives, her name was Una! I was randomly searching her name, you know sometimes you can find old school photos etc floating around the web and I was curious to see if their were any of Una flying about cyber space, alas none to be found. But I did after many hours stumble on UNA, the innovative accessories label founded in 2012 with an idealist ethos and a commitment to create positive change through fashion. A label that I know my own Una would really appericate.
I loved the layout of their website, so clear & crisp and when I looked further into the brand, I pretty much fell in love.. I think you may too.
Pretty much everything on the site is on my Lust List, but my fav have to be these beauties Free Bird Palm Cuff & Wrist Cuff
These timeless, everyday pieces are created from the recycled remnants of war in Cambodia. Skilled artisans expertly handcraft the jewelry using metal from land mines and unexploded ordinance (UXO) gathered from local NGO’s. UNA creates beauty from a marred past and supports skilled artisans transform their future
How adorable are they? Ethical, A great price & 18k gold plated, this is some major hand candy, that you can feel good about wearing.
Look Good – Do Good – Feel Good
Check out their great products & ethos for yourselves at UNA

much love B x
