For compiling this list, I used Good For You’s awesome search ratings to help determine which were worth being included and which to leave out. In all honestly I was really surprised to see many of the more commonly known ‘sustainable brands’ here in Canada that needed to be kept off. My list of 30 was quickly dwindled down to 18 as I searched each to find the majority of them listed as ‘not good enough’.

Last week celebrities and influencers flooded the red carpets of the Met Gala, New York Fashion Week, and the MTV Music Awards. Whether or not you follow the culture, the coverage was hard to avoid. There were tons of media outlets covering all the attendees looks from head to toe and what made them great or a miss. Whether or not you like it, the pedestal placed on this fashion and the attention on trends impacts the entire industry of fashion.

I love thrifting so much. It’s the coolest thing on earth if you ask me. There’s something so special about finding that perfect clothing piece that is worn just right, or that piece of furniture that gives a lived-in look to your space. A satisfaction you can't get from picking something off a rack at a store that has 10 or 15 duplicates on display.
