Whether casual or dressy, I like to be comfortable and classy. Not only do I want what I wear to reflect my personalty, but most important to know what I buy reflects my values and convictions. So I choose eco clothing and cruelty-free fashion.
Top: Synergy from DRIZZLE & SHINE
Pants: Ricki’s
Shoes: St. Jacobs Market
Lovely hand-stitched detail on the front and back with a cute peek-a-boo.
A curious little dog came to investigate this photoshoot, guess she wanted to be in my fashion blog. She reminds me of Pierre, my white poodle that I had when I was 10 years old.
fashion with compassion 
Your top is soooo cute :))) . I love the colours and style. Great pics – kisses Margot :))))

Thanks so much Patti! Glad you care too. We can make a difference with what we buy. I know you love thrifting as much as I do, which is another way to help our environment.

What a cute pants and what a cute shirt! I love the print of the pants and the hem that you made to turn them into capris. The Queen of Capri … I love the design of the shirt, with that beautiful solution on the back. It’s a nice design that you carry like no one else. And I also love your way of being consistent with your thoughts, defending ecological and fair clothing. You show that you can dress beautifully and elegantly respecting animals and people. Thank you! As always … you look lovely in the photos. The queen of capri, the top …

Thank you so much dear Josep-Maria! Always such kind words and you certainly encourage me! I am very glad we have the same views about the fashion industry, that there is no need to cause harm to people, animals and our environment. I always smile when you say I am the Queen of Capri! 🙂
