FRUIT & DREAMS

When summer comes, I love to surround myself

with bright items. So when I discovered the tropical

fruit pyjama sets from Eberjey, of course I was

sold. Not only dreamy to wear, they also support

global reforestation. For every Giving set bought in

2020, Eberjey will plant one tree. That’s 10,000

trees (and counting) since spring 2019.

I try my best to make my

own cleaning products with

natural ingredients, but when

life gets busy, I love to have

ready-made alternatives without

compromising my eco-friendly

choices. Clean Living’s

you’re short on time but big

on sustainability. No plastics,

fewer chemicals, less waste

• and sending empty bottles
  reduces the shipping carbon
  footprint. They thought of it all!

I found ice cream one of the hardest

things to give up when I moved

to a plant-based diet,

so discovering RØAR’s

plant-based ice cream

has been an absolute

game-changer. My

favourite flavour is

Hazelnut, Chocolate and

Cookie, which tastes even

better when I remember

that RØAR supports the conservation

of the world’s wild felines through

its partnership with Panthera. The

marriage of happy taste buds and

animal welfare is a win in my book.

I constantly cut and burn myself

when cooking, although I like to

remember my mum’s words:

‘People who never hurt or injure

themselves are those who never

do anything.’ So now I wear my

plasters as a badge of honour,

especially as they’re eco-friendly.

Healthcare brand Patch came up

with a revolutionary range of

organic bamboo plasters that are

either natural or enriched with

activated coconut, aloe vera or

activated charcoal. They’re

designed to help naturally heal

are good for you, as they won’t

irritate sensitive skin. Being

bamboo, they’re also compostable!

BACK TO BASICS

For sustainable fashion enthusiasts,

People Tree is a pioneer, known for its

organic fabrics and ethical standards.

While spending so much time at

home, I had to reassess my wardrobe

and my essentials. I returned to all my

old favourites from People Tree, as they

kept me feeling stylish and comfortable.

The key piece for me this season and

for all seasons to come: the Fairtrade

organic cotton Sasha trousers. Cool

and comfy – the perfect combination.
