Shop for Good Sunday

It’s almost Thanksgiving, and you know what that means—the onslaught of Black Friday and after-Thanksgiving sales vying for your attention and money.

While I can’t begrudge anyone for the sheer determination and willpower it takes to wait in line in the cold for hours, right after chowing down a hearty Thanksgiving dinner, to fight other shoppers for flat-screen TVs, the mass consumerism of Black Friday and the holiday season is…pretty much the antithesis of what this blog is all about.

However, there is a way to shop more consciously next weekend!

Shop for Good Sunday is a day for supporting businesses that do good through sustainable and ethical practices and giving back.

Obviously, it’s awesome to support these businesses all year round, but on November 26, the Sunday after Thanksgiving, many participating brands will offer discounts and donate profits to awesome organizations that are changing our world for the better.

And since we spend the most during the holiday season, why not harness that spending power for good?

It’s easy to participate! All you need to do is sign up on the Shop for Good Sunday site. You’ll receive promotions and discounts from participating brands. You can also browse their participating brands to find cool businesses doing good.

Shop for Good Sunday is organized by an awesome startup called DoneGood, which developed a Google Chrome extension that helps you find sustainable and ethical brands, year-round! Sign up here to learn about new brands doing good and to receive exclusive discounts.

For more great sustainable and ethical fashion brands, you can also check out my Eco & Ethical Brand Directory! It’s a list of my favorite sustainable and ethical brands and retailers that I’ll continually update as I discover more brands doing good.

Let me know what your Thanksgiving and post-Thanksgiving plans are in the comments below, whether it involves shopping or not (mine most likely include sleeping in, tbh)!

Instagram post 17879146526320943 I haven’t been feeling super inspired lately, but I put on this fit and realized I just needed to dress like a rainbow snow cone 🌸

sweater and skirt from @nuuly, a rental subscription that I’m trying out (gifted). so far, I’ve found that it’s a good way to try out styles I would be too afraid to buy, or to wear trendy pieces I wouldn’t usually invest in bc ✨slow fashion✨. the clothes do come with more wear than I expected, but I like that they dry clean and repair for you.

I do not want to be perceived

I am also addicted to posting pictures of my outfits online for external validation 🙃

one thing I’ve realized this year is that the world will always seem to punish you for taking a break, because ✨capitalism✨. our society, our workplaces, social media are structured to make you feel like you’re falling behind if you aren’t constantly doing something. but rest is its own reward, and that’s a lesson I’m still trying to internalize.

Instagram post 17867289293458997 #ad // raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized by your period 🙋🏻‍♀️⁣
⁣
period panties have completely changed my relationship to my period! I feel ✨free✨ while secure from leaks, and combined with my menstrual cup, I haven’t had to use disposable tampons or pads in years.⁣
⁣
@periodaisle recently launched a thong style that’s perfect for light days. I swear, it DOES NOT leak—I just wore mine for day 1 of my period and felt 100% safe. (note: I do have a lighter flow because I have an IUD!)⁣
⁣
@periodaisle is committed to sustainability and responsible manufacturing, and is B-Corp certified. I also love that the brand aims to be inclusive of all people who have periods, no matter their gender! 💗⁣

i hope u find a moment of peace and calm this weekend 💗

⁣
my cats truly are part of my family! we’ve been through health scares and shocking vet bills, so having pet insurance gives us that peace of mind.⁣
⁣
if you're considering pet insurance, make sure to do your research to find the best options for you and your pets! and if you're interested in trying @PetsBestInsurance, you can get 5% off with my code: “cookiecatherine”⁣
⁣
thanks @PetsBestInsurance for partnering with me and Kimchi! (Kiwi is not in this photo because he was on strike for a 50% raise in tuna treats, but he’ll pout about Kimchi being more famous than him later 😾)⁣

Instagram post 17877688520303515 #ad // pov: we’re on a post-pandemic coffee date and you’re telling me about all the times you almost gave yourself quarantine bangs ☕️⁣
⁣
one of the things I miss most about pre-pandemic life is going to coffee shops. the silver lining is that I’ve learned how to make my favorite drinks at home!⁣
⁣
when I drink coffee, creamer is a must. @honestogoodness is a new plant-based creamer that’s part of the B-Corp movement. it’s the perfect replacement for dairy creamers and tastes just as good (maybe even better, in my opinion!).⁣

I love that Honest to Goodness also gives back to the communities where their ingredients are grown by helping to promote reforestation in Madagascar!⁣
