{ Dreaming about this vegan brunch I had back in Denmark last week }

I got back to London earlier this week and still can’t quite believe I’m done with the yoga teacher training. I know I’m never going to stop learning, but this course, this time, has come to an end. And I think I’m equally relieved and bewildered by that fact. I’ve spent the week recovering, knitting, and getting back into the grind of things, and I think the weekend will be much the same, hopefully with an outing or two thrown in the mix. Below are the news that caught my attention this week in the world of sustainable fashion.

Anything that might help save water in the production and keep the world waterways clean are exciting news in my book

I would love it if customising a blazer in 90 minutes could be the new norm
