conscious capsules
By Megan Henson
As a mom, I always try to keep my kids looking cute. I also try to eliminate waste wherever I can. I started making capsule wardrobes for my kids from pre-loved, high quality, often name-brand, good condition thrift store finds, as well as hand-me-downs. I speak to so many people who love this idea, but they don't have the time or patience to thrift (or they just don't love it like I do!). As a conscious consumer, I also try to mitigate the concern of fast fashion, especially for my quickly growing children. And, let's be honest, I love it when my kids always look put together and photo-ready. So, I have started curating a few of these capsule wardrobes to share; I use them for my kids, for the kids in my life, or sometimes for photo shoots. I'm open to selling as I go, as well as offering my services to parents who might want to purchase eco friendly, carefully curated, mix-and-match capsule wardrobes. I'll share some of my shopping adventures here, as well as some of my curated capsules, but please reach out if you're interested in something like this for yourself! It's just one "me," so this will be on a slow, custom, and serviceable scale. Some wardrobes will be gifted based on a nomination process, and some will be sold. If you're looking to buy, you can expect to pay about $5 per article of clothing in a capsule. Thanks for the love and support!
