Fast Fashion Is Bad For The Environment. For Many Plus-Size Shoppers, It’s The Only Option. If you were a statistician tracking the growth of the size-inclusive fashion market, you could point to a number of data points that say that shopping as a plus-size person is easier and more accessible than it was even a decade ago. On the surface, that’s true: In the last 10 years, shoppers have seen an exponential improvement when it comes to retailers offering a size 16 and up and more affordable prices, particularly when it comes to fast fashion. We’ve come a long way, sure, but, while there are plenty of plus-size fast-fashion brands available today, it is much harder to find sustainable size-inclusive labels. Refinery29 |

Oh Boy, Chrissy Teigen Threw A ‘Squid Game’ Themed Party Netflix’s Squid Game has become one of the streaming service’s most-watched shows and unsurprisingly, pop culture’s most recent obsession (that and a 13-year-old pug named Noodle that predicts the outcome of your day). Sure, the show is called Squid Game, but it’s not all fun and games and we as a society shouldn’t be treating it as such — especially the super rich.

A Squeaky Clean That Won’t Make You Squeamish You, unlike half the population apparently, shower regularly and wash all your body parts — even legs. Love that for you. But think about something for a second: You’re probably rubbing plastic on your most intimate parts in the process. For a better option, look to a brand started by two quality-obsessed best friends who wanted to create bathroom essentials that perform well, last a long time, and don’t cost a fortune, all while being seriously soft and sustainable. Meet your new favorite bath accessory: the Shower Scrubber. This 100% plant-based, double-sided, charcoal-infused bath tool creates a super-satisfying lather, exfoliates with walnut shells, unclogs pores, and can be composted when it’s run its course. Get yours for $15 or bundle to save 58%. Casamera |
