Sustain This!
Welcome to Sustain This! A slow fashion podcast that's about so much more than clothes.
Join us every Tuesday as your hosts Alyssa, Christina and Signe chat all things mindful consumption, personal style and the quest for building a more intentional life...and wardrobe!
Alyssa Beltempo is a sustainable stylist, Christina Mychas, a shopaholic turned minimalist-ish, and Signe Hansen is a colour consultant and slow fashion style coach. Together we will unpack the nuances of what it really means be a conscious consumer & find more joy in what we have right now. Let's go!
Sustain This!
So you made a Wishlist...now what?
In this episode, we dive into the art of managing a fashion wishlist—why it matters, how to keep it up, and when to cross things off. We chat about the emotional side of shopping, balancing indulgence with mindful choices, and using a wishlist to avoid impulse buys. Plus, we explore the joy of vintage finds, intuitive shopping, and how buying can be a journey of self-discovery.
