I accidentally shattered a moonstone while wire wrapping. Instead of throwing it away, I turned the broken pieces into two pendants.

How do you find good quality clothes these days?

Over the last year and a half, I got to a point where I could afford more expensive things, including clothes. I always looked at brands like Prada and Gucci as something I wanted to own. But after buying some luxury items, I was disappointed.

I started looking for less branded clothes made with good quality and only natural materials. It was harder than I expected, I guess smaller brands are difficult to find because they don't spend much on marketing.

My method is to google very specific things. For example, a brown coat, fabric type and GSM, search through Google Images, check brands that look interesting, read reviews, and check the return policy before placing my first order.

It takes time, but it's worth it (in my opinion). I'm much happier with the clothes I'm finding now.

Has anyone else gone through something similar? How do you find good quality clothes today, especially with so many brands lowering their quality?

These are some brands I love: Lemaire, Toteme, MaxMara, Bradic, Another Tomorrow,Margaret Howell.

Winter Clothing Question

Hi! I am moving to NYC (from southern california... bigggg weather change lol) and I am trying to research ways to stay warm and dry and windproof myself using clothing with natural fabrics. Also trying to do this with somewhat of a budget - I'm aware natural materials (especially warm ones) are more expensive so I am somewhat flexible but would prefer nothing well over $300 (open to vintage of course!)

Does anyone know of good options / a good layering system (ex. wool base layer, top that with "x jacket" ) I can use for warmth and waterproofing and wind resistance? Thank you so much!

Is it possible to slut it up in natural fiber clothes?

I'm in the process of moving away from fast fashion and plastic clothing, but I'm really struggling with the clash between my personal style and what's available. I wear a lot of clubwear, glitter, sequins, rhinestones and crop tops/miniskirts ect, but that market seems to be... Not very targeted by most of the sustainable brands I'm aware of. Does anyone know the sustainable version of "two postage stamps and some string" for me?

Looking for actual GOTS certified intimates

I am reading that an item that uses GOTS-certified cotton or is from a GOTS-certified brand does not necessarily mean the item is actually a GOTS-certified product... I am having SO much trouble finding intimates that are GOTS-certified items.

I would prefer to not pay an arm and a leg for an item and I am in the US, if anyone has any suggestions that are able to ship to me.

Decluttering Question!

I’ve been cleaning out my closet and as a sweaty individual, I have a few pieces that have armpit sweat stains or a lingering odor. I hesitate to throw anything away (usually donate, sell, etc) so wanted to check here first. Could the rest of the fabric be used for anything? Is landfill my only option?

where you guys find wholesale jewelry thats properly vegan/cruelty free?

Trying to find some fashion jewelry for a small collection but i want suppliers thats clear about materials...no leather, shell or random animal materials hidden somewhere in details. ive been checking jewelry suppliers on Alibaba too and theres loads of stainless steel, brass and acrylic options which seems fine, but im not sure what people normally ask supplier if they wanna call the finished line vegan. is there some certification for this or mostly checking every material, glue and coating yourself? also any wholesale sites where you can filter for vegan/cruelty free jewelry instead of opening every product one by one? how you guys normally verify this before putting it in product description?
