Meadow’s Fall Favorites
September 22nd was officially the first day of fall, and even though it’s still ridiculously hot in Miami, I’m ready to wear booties, layers, and jeans. I’m ready for darker, richer colors and knit fabrics. I’m ready for cooler days and nights when I can have a bonfire without sweating through my clothes. And most of all, I’m ready for fall fashion.
Our Sustainable Brands Featuring Rolla’s Jeans
There’s something so effortless and timeless about a good pair of jeans. You can dress them up with a pair of heels and some accessories, or you can dress them down with a graphic tee and some sneakers. They’re great for almost every occasion. I know firsthand how important a good pair of jeans can be. That’s why when I was looking for a jeans brand for the shop, I landed on Rolla’s Jeans.
Spell’s Impact Report 2023
You guys know how much I love Spell. Their values align perfectly with everything the shop stands for: slow fashion, garments made with high-quality materials by fairly-treated workers, and a commitment toward sustainability. It’s all these things that can make fashion a part of our lives and world without destroying it. So, when I get Spell’s yearly impact report, you know I have to share it.
New Year, New Trends
I’ve always been good about creating a timeless look that lasts through the years, and I’ve always done decent with my Instagram. But with TikTok and Reels, there’s always something new to learn, and it seems like trends spread even faster through the fashion community. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good trend—super glad I got to bring out my hair clips and bell bottoms again—but trends typically outcome accompany fast fashion.
How to Support Slow Fashion: Meadow Collective’s Roots
Long before I opened up the doors of my little shop in Miami, I had a shop in Costa Rica. My shop now is very different from the one I had in Costa Rica. Both had the same values of sustainability, slow fashion, and of course, super cute boho looks. But with my first shop, I actually made most of the stuff I own.
Our Sustainable Brands Featuring Nine Lives Bazaar
I’m excited to announce a new brand that we’ll be carrying! Nine Lives Bazaar is an Australian brand that makes amazing, vintage-inspired pieces with the environment in mind. And besides the fun 70s style prints and retro designs, Nine Lives Bazaar makes each of its pieces with the idea that they’ll be able to last generation after generation.
Our Sustainable Brands Featuring Spell
Here at Meadow Collective, one of our core values is sustainability. We care about selling high-quality clothes that are good for the planet. We don’t think that the future of fashion should be cheap and plastic-based. We don’t think that making the clothes we love means killing the planet we love. No, we’re in favor of a better method.
The Best Ways To Tie a Sarong
Dress, scarf, coverup, beach towel, picnic blanket—you can use a sarong for a lot of things. It’s easily your most versatile, convenient beach accessory. Tie it around your waist for a little bit more coverage than your average denim cutoffs. Wrap it around your shoulders for a little extra sun protection. Or, use one to spice up your regular beachwear.
The Best Summer Outfits
Even though it’s already ninety degrees in Miami, today officially marks the start of summer. So, you know what that means? Pool parties. Garden parties. Weddings.
Spell’s 100% Sustainable Collection: Meadowland
The Meadowland collection is Spell’s first 100% sustainable collection. And even though Spell has always made its collections with sustainability in mind, this collection marks a massive milestone for Spell. To be even a little sustainable in clothing production requires a decent amount of effort, but to be completely sustainable requires an enormous commitment.
