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 17889750571865304 #ad // growing up in an immigrant family, investing in furniture and decorating our space wasn’t a priority. as I’ve grown up and started creating a home of my own, I feel so privileged to be able to curate my space so it’s not only functional, but also beautiful.⁣
⁣
one of my favorite brands for thoughtful furniture that lasts is @article. the products are high-quality and timeless, and I know I’ll be able to keep them for years to come.⁣
⁣
@article kindly gifted me their #NirvanaSofa and #BeaconLamp, which pair perfectly together and make my living room feel instantly cozy. peep my new favorite reading (and napping) spot! ⁣
⁣
links to these pieces will be in my stories!⁣

⁣
finally found a moment of calm to pick up my needles again, and was reminded of how grounding it can be to just sit and focus on the feel of yarn in your hands. also it’s really cool to bring something into existence with your bare hands, like wow

⁣
(zoom in to see our course material 😌 I found this book, “The Manly Art of Knitting,” in a used bookstore a few years ago and have still been unable to determine if it’s satirical or not. like...there are legit knitting techniques in there but also patterns to make “manly” things like horse blankets? will share in my stories lmao)⁣

(I know a lot of us are holding our breaths for what this next week will hold. I hope you find some moments of peace and rest today✨)
Instagram post 18091116520216133 time and time again white supremacy shows itself to be the most violent problem in this country.⁣
⁣
what happened at the US Capitol today is horrific, and it is a reminder that the work of racial justice is imperative for all of us.⁣
⁣
much love to my BIPOC community today—these are scary, sickening times and it’s hard to not even be able to hold each other close, physically. in whatever way you can, I hope you are able to take space for yourself today.⁣

so happy with my dining nook! could not resist this refurbished dining set I found on FB marketplace bc the chairs so perfectly matched this piece by @analeovy 💙⁣
⁣
it turned out the seller was upcycling furniture as a way to make some money after losing his job due to covid and this was one of his last sales bc he’d thankfully found another job. it was just a nice reminder that you never know the kind of impact your purchase can make when you shop small, even if it’s off FB marketplace or Craigslist 🥺
Instagram post 17887777579871037 ✨ it’s 2021! wear the outfits you want, even if it scares you! ✨⁣
⁣
I don’t think I would’ve been brave enough to wear this outfit outside a few years ago, but the past year has taken all my f*cks and I’ve learned that life is too precious to not wear joy-sparking outfits 😌⁣

cardigan: secondhand from @daylightcollective*⁣

Instagram post 17887022521873718 ✨ me walking away from the hot dumpster fire that was 2020 ✨⁣
⁣
when I look back on 2020, I’ll think of getting laid off and mourning my entire way of life pre-pandemic. but also of finding a new path forward and discovering new joys. of a movement that ignited action in ways we’ve never seen before. of both the darkest side of humanity and the resilience of the human spirit.⁣
⁣
ok now that we’ve seen ✨ growth ✨, 2021 pls go easy on us 🥲⁣
⁣
[dress is #gifted from @loudbodies, a sustainable & ethical brand that makes sizes XXS-10X! they make the dreamiest cottagecore dresses and I love how extensive their size range is. they’re truly setting the standard for this industry 💕 I’m usually a size 2 and am wearing a XS.]⁣

p.s. if u zoom into my face u can see how dead inside I am, which is cool hahahahahahha
