3 Ways I Hope AI Affects Travel
AI (artificial intelligence) can already recommend top-rated places, suggest activities, and build itineraries—but there are still limits to how much help you can get with ChatGPT or Gemini. An AI can tell you what the best-rated walking tours and hostels, but it can’t tell you if you’re going to make friends on a trip. It can tell you the best time and place to catch a sunset—not whether it’ll feel meaningful to you. Continue reading 3 Ways I Hope AI Affects Travel
3 Things That Will Preserve Your Clothing
A huge part of sustainability in fashion is keeping your nice things nice; preserving them, so that they don’t become easily disposable. But how can we keep our clothing nice if we’re not sure where to begin? Vaccum bags.

Determined to not show up next week without tools—and with only Sunday to shop—I headed for the only fabric shop I could find that was open on Sunday: … Continue reading London Gem: One-Stop Sewing Shop Ray-Stitch
Sustainability VS Privilege
I’ve realized lately that the sustainable changes I’ve been making re: my wardrobe aren’t due to some change in personality, new trend I’m looking to follow, or based on new information I’ve gotten.

Trend I Love: Coach Purse Spa Day
I feel like it goes against the whole “sustainable” idea to be into trends—because following trends closely typically means discarding and replacing items quicker than they wear out due to them not being the “in” thing.

Is Building A Wardrobe A Sustainable Goal?
A problem that I’ve created for myself is that I both want to curate a wardrobe that looks and feels good and be sustainable about it, when the most sustainable thing I can do for my wardrobe is wear the pieces that I already have. Continue reading Is Building A Wardrobe A Sustainable Goal?
