GETTING TO KNOW - PERSONAL STYLIST ELIANNA
Friday, September 04, 2015
In our latest getting to know blog we want to introduce you to one of
our favourite personal stylists, but we’ll let her do all the talking..
My name
is Eliana -Elly and I am a personal stylist based in Wellington. I currently
also manage a jewellery store so fashion is my life! I have recently created the
right wardrobe so I can change the way I shop and to truly look beyond the
price tag.
I created
the right wardrobe so I could take ownership of my wardrobe and to know where
and who has made my clothes. I no longer see bargains as a good thing I now see
parentless children, overworked workers, under paid families and the list truly
goes on. I didn’t want to be a part of supporting this anymore, I wanted to
help and I feel that the right wardrobe has enabled me and everyone else to
help change fast fashion and what it’s doing to people and the earth!
The true
cost was definitely an eye opener and the final push I needed to create the
right wardrobe. The real inspirations are the people who made my clothes, they
are the reason I want to change!
The
movement is about changing the way we shop and looking at new ways to shop. I
want people to look past bargains and to see that there are amazing alternative
places to shop which offer a proper living wage and proof that the workers are
taken care of. I also want the knowledge in regards to fair trade, ethical and eco-friendly
to be readily available for everyone and anyone so we can all see what is
actually happening behind the scenes. 5. Everyone can get on board by liking,
following and sharing the right wardrobe. Not only that but interacting with
myself so I can source answers for questions you may have, I want this journey
to be something everyone can get involved with and pursue themselves. I also definitely
recommend the true cost documentary; it is such an amazing eye opener
i hope this has inspired you all as much as it inspired us! it's so refreshing to have people in who generally care about such important yet often overlooked issues in our world.
Eli also shared with us these super cute selfie snaps - she scored these tops from Emporium before her recent trip to Bali.
The Right Wardrobe - is definitely one to watch
until next time
- Stay Beautiful
