Introducing: Chocolate Laced Boutique
The day has finally come! Chocolate Laced Boutique has arrived!
Chocolate Laced Boutique will serve looks of both the vintage and current variety, offering gently-used and meticulously selected garments that I love and will be very happy to provide to someone who will love as much as I do, if not more. You, too, can be Chocolate Laced ;).
If you don’t already know, I am a huge advocate for affordable and sustainable fashion. That’s why I thrift. Aside from the one-of-a-kind styles that loudly whisper me over to adopt them into my closet, and the comfort it provides me and my bank account, thrifting/recycled fashion helps the planet.
FACT TIME:
Did you know that of the 25 billion pounds of textiles* produced by the US each year—that’s 82 pounds per person in the country—only 15% (12 lbs/person) gets donated or recycled while the rest goes to our landfills! That is about 21 billion pounds of textiles YEARLY.
*Textiles refers to [insert spectrum of textiles here] (Linked source, year)
So, if you are someone who cares about our home and nurturer (Mother Earth) and wants it to be here for our descendants and successors, remember that everything that you do counts. Just as the planet nurtures and provides for us, we must do the same. Reciprocity. And the more people we can inspire to do something little, the better. Renew. Reuse. Recycle!
