Spending Less on Sustainable Shopping: H&M Conscious Collection

We’re all probably guilty of fast fashion shopping at some point or another. Sometimes it’s nice to find a new outfit and not break the bank – I love a good deal so I totally get it. After Marie Kondo-ing my closet last year, I decided that I wanted to try harder to support companies that were practicing sustainable methods. However, I didn’t always want to go way over budget when shopping.

I found a happy medium with H&M’s Conscious line; I have discovered some great basics that I feel good about and that won’t hit the wallet too hard. While H&M is not a perfect company, I appreciate that it is taking steps in the right direction. H&M also offers a recycling program where you can drop off any clothing or textiles and what can’t be reworn or reused will be recycled into insulation and other materials!

Other than the belt and shoes, this whole outfit consists of Conscious Collection items. The jeans I’m wearing are so comfortable and come in six different washes. It looks like they are sold out of the other items unfortunately, but I’ll link similar options below. As I continue to shop the conscious line, I will share my finds with you all. Happy (sustainable) shopping!

I’m wearing size S for the cami and cardigan and size 6 for the jeans. Shoes are vintage Chanel, but I’ve added another style below.

Black cats make up roughly one-third of the total Black cats make up roughly one-third of the total animal shelter population, and yet they have much longer waiting times and lower adoption rates. Sadly, superstitions still play a role in this. ☹️

In Japan, black cats are symbols of good luck! They are said to ward off evil, bring luck in love, and increase financial success and prosperity! 🍀 

We love our lucky Lucy! Have you had a black cat before? Maybe this is your sign to get one! 🖤

I’m not sure who made the “no white after Labor Da I’m not sure who made the “no white after Labor Day” rule, but clearly I’m disregarding 😂🤍

I’m still obsessed with this dreamy shoot at @sanysidroranch with @laurenmaevephotography 🥰

A perfect weekend escape to Paso Robles thanks to A perfect weekend escape to Paso Robles thanks to @pasoroblesinn 💕

You know I love a rooftop dinner, and @salina_rooftop did not disappoint! The pizzas were so good! 🍕 

Do you enjoy visiting Paso Robles too? It’s a little over a two-hour drive for us, but not bad at all! 🚗
