A week ago I read Carlton Reid's article for Forbes magazine. The initiative explained caught my attention and I have been doing research on the subject. It is the initiative of the “gadisina” mayor Anne Hidalgo, with which she intends to make Paris a city where you can find everything you need within a 15-minute walk from where you are.

Thank Mariu Emilas for her incredible work and highly reco...

It is essential that we become aware of the impact that each of us has on the environment in which we live and the power we have as consumers. In 2019 there was a lot of talk about sustainability in fashion and the need for change to occur. Well, from my point of view, the change has to be REAL. Last week I found this article for VOGUE Spain by Marina Valera in which she developed "10 fashion purposes to buy less and dress better in 2020" This is undoubtedly the key: Let's consume better! Here are the ideas that I got from Marina's very useful decalogue: Optimization of our wardrobe, being consistent with our style when dressing and with life.
