As you might know by now, I avoid buying new clothes. It works 99% of the time, but there are is that 1% when it doesn’t work out. There are some things that need to be bought new. But if I do buy new, I buy ethical. If there is a sustainable and fair option,…
Category: How to guides
For some subjects on this blog I write special how-to-guides. That’s because these subjects tend to be a little difficult in practice, but at the same time they’re one of the most important changes to be made. A guide on how to make sustainable food choices for example, or on how to ditch the plane. Just to give you a little guidance to stick to.
How to go vegan
How do you switch to a vegan/plant-based diet? This is a question people ask me a lot in real life. When I got the question again some time ago, I realized: I’ve never written anything about this. That’s a sin, because such a post would be so convenient to refer these people to. This way…

I am on a journey to my ultimate capsule wardrobe. A capsule wardrobe can have many forms and has a different meaning to different people. To me it is a small wardrobe with items that I love and can all match. It is an ongoing journey. And so I buy things, but also get rid…

Yet, these are just two categories of everything you can buy. Yes, they are the most important in my life, the two things I buy the most. But…
How to Make Sustainable Food Choices
Last week I published a guide on how to buy sustainable clothing. Clothes are not something you buy weekly, at least, I hope not. But there’s something I do buy every week. And that is food. Food is something we all need and so we can reduce a huge part of our negative impact on…
How to Buy Sustainable Clothing
On this blog I’ve shared a bunch of posts about clothing I bought. Sometimes new clothing, like when I bought underwear or tights. But mostly secondhand, such as this jeans I bought or this swimsuit. In each post I explain the choices I make, but I realized I never really wrote a guide on buying sustainable clothes. So, here it is today!…
The 5 R’s of Zero Waste
I’ve been blogging on here for a while now, I think it’s been about three years. The starting point of this whole green and eco-positive lifestyle has been a zero waste lifestyle. It’s the thing I started blogging about at first, but over the years it has evolved into a whole different lifestyle. But, a…
