Valentine’s Day celebrates the people and things we love! Why not wear clothes you already love or some preloved finds? ❤️ Before buying a new item of clothing or purchasing something secondhand at the thrift store, try shopping your closet for your celebratory or date night look. #livebrightly #shopyourcloset #rewearthat #secondhand #secondhandclothes #thrifting #valentinesday #valentinesdayoutfit #valentinesdayoutfitideas

·2024-1-30Yes BUT read the caption to learn more 🥔 ⬇️ Sprouted potatoes are okay to eat if the sprouts have been removed! However, you can’t eat the sprout itself. Our expert @Amy Gorin, MS, RDN says it contains glycoalkaloids, and if consumed, you may get sick. Additionally, it’s best to use your own judgment. If the sprouts are too far gone and too difficult to remove, it might be better not to consume the potatoes at all. In that case, into the compost bin they go. Did you know about this?

·2024-1-10Want to have a more sustainable closet in the new year? Here are some of our favorite tips 👗: 1) Wear the items you already own, including fast fashion pieces! While they may not have been made sustainability, rewearing the clothes already in your closet is the most sustainable choice. 2) Figure out your personal style outside of fashion trends. And if a trend matches your style, try to find it secondhand. 3) Check out your local thrift and secondhand stores, or online sites like Poshmark or ThredUp, before buying new. Items like professional clothing or athletic wear are usually easy to find at thrift stores. 4) If you do buy new, try to buy clothing made of natural materials from a brand that produces it sustainably! 5) And lastly, do your best! 💚 What do you think makes a closet sustainable?
