EARTH DAY: TODAY AND EVERY DAY
Celebrating one of our favourite days today and EVERY DAY. Since last year, we have made a fair amount of progress. We have continued to improve our efforts, and more importantly our numbers; and therefore, impact. From our 100% recycled packaging, 100% biodegradable flyers, cards and tags, to our increased use of dead-stock fabrics, responsible sourcing, handmade efforts and collaborations with fair trade certified organisations, we are working on continuing to design with a social purpose, as we want you not only love our clothes, but to be proud to wear them! If there is anything you’d like to ask us, or contribute to our efforts, we love to listen, and more than anything, we love to learn • Happy #EarthDay
WHY? BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IN SOMETHING
Coral • Sandstone • Lemon Tree • Sea | Why use eco-friendly packaging, when you can find something else for half the price? Why did you spend more on biodegradable, recycled and chlorine free hang tags and flyers? Why do you make small productions, when if you produce more the cost will go down? Why do you travel so far to find specific fabrics, when you can buy them on your doorstep? To the lovely lady who asked, and anyone else wondering: Why, because we believe in something.
When you see the colours above, what do you think of? We think of colours in terms of the world. The bulk of our inspiration (if not all of it) comes from the world around us; countries, cities and cultures. If inspiration leads to creativity, creativity leads to (in our case) garments, and garments lead to a business – what business would be left without the world to inspire our creativity? It might not always be the most cost effective, or the fastest, but it’s a small step in the right direction to better manage our impact. #MISHAVAIDYA

I N S P I R A T I O N x C U L T U R E
Forever fascinated by the world; by the different folktales, superstitions and sayings, by the different foods, spices and dishes, by the different traditions, dress etiquettes and jewellery, by the different languages, gestures and norms, by the different shades of ocean, sky and ground. They say different images evoke different feelings in different people, this one makes me feel connected, lucky and inspired by my own cultural heritage. | “Different flowers make up a bouquet,” and without each and every one of them, it wouldn’t be such a beautiful arrangement • Image via @pinterest
2019
Reflecting upon a year, one filled with a constellation of lessons, new skylines, and a scary amount of fresh ideas • Moving into 2019, my goal is simple (or at least I’d like to convince myself into thinking it is). Rather than a traditional resolution, I’m going with a word; a word that I’m determined to carry into each and every aspect of my life, personal and business. 2019 will be about INTENTION: A promise to be kind to myself; to work hard, but to give my brain the rest it needs. To be generous with my time, but to be purposeful with it. To overcome challenges, and to focus on the wins. To embrace change and channel fear into excitement. To emit my own frequency, rather than absorbing the frequencies around me. 🦋 Energy flows where intention goes.
Wishing all of you the happiest new year! Love, Misha xx

ACCESSORIES THAT MAKE THE OUTFIT
Accessories that make the outfit • P.S. The ancient civilisations of Rome and Assyria were the first to use the rose quartz crystal as a bead, in jewellery. The idea of rose quartz representing love, originated in Greek and Roman myths -- according to these tales, Cupid, the Roman god of desire / Eros, the Greek god of love, bestowed the gift of love to humans in the form of rose quartz crystals.
