  1. Great giveaway and congrats on 2 years! I’d love to buy the Miley Midi by Amour Vert.

  2. Happy 2 Year Anniversary! Thank you for all of your insight about ethical fashion and inspiring a newbie like me:) I am in love with the circle shirt by.

  3. I would most certainly order the Kala Classic Moto Jacket – it is exactly what I am looking for!

  6. I’ve been so inspired by you! I never really paid much attention to where or how my clothes were made before I read your blog. I’ve started to make smarter, more ethical choices for my wardrobe. Secondhand shopping has always been my jam but now I’m looking into the brands you’ve featured on your website for my new item purchases.

    The City Sweater is what I’m currently coveting. It looks so comfy and it would definitely get milage in my wardrobe!

  7. Love your blog! Congrats on 2 years. I’m really liking the perfect pencil skirt from IMBY!

  8. I really like the Harry V-Neck! Thanks for the chance. I truly enjoy and appreciate your blog–just subscribed now!

  10. I’m so glad I discovered your blog a couple of months ago; it’s quickly become a favorite. Congrats on two years!
    I’m currently loving the Mae Joggers by IMBY. I love pieces that are stylish and comfortable, and these fit that bill perfectly.
    Thanks for what you do, Andrea!

  13. I’d love the Essential Bralette or the Amelia Cropped culottes! The bra looks fabulous for summer wear and the culottes are just the shape I’ve been after!

  14. *convertible pantsuit* – isn’t it gorgeous!
    this is my first post on your site…i love your site and have been looking for something just like this to help me get a kick start on revamping / stop buying ridiculous items and to be more conscientious about how clothing affects the planet. i’ve scoured all of your articles so far and it makes me so happy to know this community exists. thank you, thank you, thank you.

  15. Congratulations, Andrea! Everything gets better with age :) I like the Amelia cropped culottes – I’m tip-toeing into not always wearing skinny jeans, and this seems like a safe jumping off point!

  16. I love reading your blog. I’ve been introduced to several new brands through it. It’s such an inspiration as I (slowly) start on my slow fashion journey.

    It would be tough to pick something from IMBY, so many good choices. For now I would have to say the Hackwith Design House Kimono. It fills a need on my wish list which seems like the slow fashion thing to do.

  18. Just discovered your blog and love it. Would love the city sweater or the denim kimono.

  22. Thanks for writing! I’ve been reading for about a year and it’s been a fab coffee companion.

    I’m all about the Harry V-neck and the city sweater!

  23. I love the simply sophisticated pocket dress and also the circle shirt, which would definitely work for post pregnancy and nursing come June…congratulations on the blog anniversary! I really enjoy the fashion inspiration as well as the inspiration for a more edited and sustainable closet.

  25. I love the kimono and the city sweater. It’s cold and wet here today and they both look like the perfect things to curl up in with a nice cup of tea and a good book.

  27. Congrats on 2 years! I’m a new reader, but have read a lot of your capsule articles, since I’m parsing down my closet and working on having a more ethical wardrobe.

    For me, the Kala Classic Moto Jacket would be an excellent addition to my tiny wardrobe!

  28. Happy anniversary! I had no idea your blog was so young, from your well crafted content and writing style, I would have thought you were doing this for much longer! What kind of creative/writing experience did you have before you started your site?

    My eye was immediately drawn to all the wonderful silhouettes of the tops on the IMBY site. I think I would have to go with the Dahlia blouse, I’m a sucker for a flowy top!

    1. Hi Anne! Thanks for the kind words. Before I had kids I worked in journalism (which I also have a degree in), but I credit a lot of my writing skills to the piles of books I devoured as a kid. :)

  29. Too many to choose from! The Amelia Cropped Culottes or the Brigette Dress…maybe both!

    And congratulations on two years!

  30. Thanks so much for inspiring me to be more ethical when it comes to fashion choices. I am in desperate need of new jeans, but I love the look of the Culottes for summer.

  31. I have been eyeing the Simply Sophisticated Pocket Dress in black for quite a while. I love IMBY, both the clothes they produce and sell, their values, and the M List newsletter she sends out!

  32. Love the Dahlia blouse – in either color! Ive also had my eye on the convertible jumpsuit for quite awhile!

  33. This is awesome! I need more dresses for summer and I’d love to have the Miley Midi or the Simply Sophisticated Pocket Dress…who doesn’t need more pockets?!

  34. I love your blog. I just found it recently and went through your entire archives (took about a week..). I’m from Seattle so it’s great to see Pacific Northwest style for Pacific Northwest weather. From IMBY I am in love with the Simply Sophisticated Pocket (POCKETS!) Dress in black. Love the new style of blog and can’t wait for more anniversaries! Thanks.

  36. Happy anniversary! I only recently found your blog and am really enjoying your style (I’m from the wet PNW too) and your approach to writing about shopping. Thanks for the chance at this giveaway! I love the ‘Simply Sophisticated Pocket Dress’.

  37. Thanks for such a great giveaway! :)
    Would love to own one (or two or three) of the classic organic bodysuits. I could see myself wearing it all summer long with high-waisted shorts.
    -Hannah

  38. Torn between the dahlia blouse in blush or the city sweater. So many gems on there, hard to decide. Happy anniversary! So glad I stumbled across your blog. I love your style and recommendations. You have inspired me to ditch fast fashion :-)

  41. Congrats on your two year anniversary, and thank you for the giveaway! I’ve been a recent avid reader of your blog (but first time commentator) as I’ve been slowly venturing into creating a more sustainable wardrobe. Your journey has been inspiring to me. :) I’ve been building up a wishlist (though I am trying to limit myself to only purchasing three essentials per season), and I’ve had the Classic Organic Bodysuit on it for a while. It seems like it’ll be a versatile piece for layering under clothing for all seasons or for wearing by itself in the warmer months.

  43. I love the Harry V-Neck! Swooning over it right now!

    This is one of my favorite blogs. You always have such interesting content! Congrats on 2 years and here’s to the next 2 and beyond!

  48. That denim kimono is calling my name! Between this blog and a new consignment shop that has opened in my area, I’m back on the ethical fashion train ;)

  52. Congratulations on the anniversary! :) I would looove the French striped top. Elegant, timeless and a must-have for any wardrobe! Plus, stripes are life. ❤️️

  53. Thank you for sharing your life/style through S+S! I have learned so SO much about ethical fashion. From IMBY….the City Sweater is right up my alley :)

  55. I’m obsessed with the IMBY Convertible Pantsuit! I’m getting married in a few weeks, and this would be a perfect Mexican honeymoon dinner outfit!

  56. Honestly, I’d stock up on their lovely and simple Essential Bralettes! It can be SO difficult to find simply cut, no underwire, no padding bras, and the Essential Bralette is understated and subtle. I want my undergarments to mold with my natural form, not contort “the ladies” into an uncomfortable, upright position!!

  57. Congratulations on the 2 years! I’m a new reader and have loved all of your advice and fashion inspiration! I love the IMBY Convertible Pantsuit and have been looking for something like the Denim Kimono from Hackwith. :)

  58. Yay for 2 years! I would have to go with the simply sophisticated pocket dress…it’s simply perfect!

  59. Ugh, there’s so much good stuff to choose from – it’s so tough! I’m loving the denim kimono but the french terry tee would be a great casual/everyday piece for any wardrobe.

  61. I discovered your blog a couple of months ago and it’s quickly becoming one of my favs! Congrats on the two year mark. I would love the Mae Jogger by Amour Vert.

  62. Oh gosh, so hard to choose! But I love the boxy cropped sweatshirt and the kala moto jacket especially!

  64. The Harry V-Neck or LE Denim Kimono with Hackwith!! Congrats on two years, love your style!

  66. I would LOVE that French-inspired top you linked in your post! Modal is my fave and it looks so chic!

  68. I would absolutely buy the Corrie cropped box top in black, it’s gorgeous. Congrats on two years!

  70. Congrats on two years – that’s fantastic! I always love your content. I love the Miley Midi dress on IMBY – so comfy and versatile!

  71. Congratulations on your two-year anniversary, Andrea! I love your blog and I’m super excited for your “I really wore these outfits” feature!!
    I love the Convertible Pantsuit from Seemly and the Black Denim Limited Edition Kimono with Hackwith

  73. Congratulations!!! I love the convertible pantsuit or the kimono. Both would be perfect staples as I try to establish my own capsule wardrobe.

  74. OMG I’ve had my eye on the Francoise striped shirt, the Perfect Jeans, and the Essential Bralette (but doubt the last one will be able to handle my DD situation). Have a lovely day!

  75. congratulations, time flies when you’re having fun, eh? i’m loving everything about the my boys tee by joah brown. perfect bit of slouch, and you can’t go wrong with modal.

  76. Congratulations on two years! I love your new 7 days of style series, by the way. Yay for authenticity!!! I always feel a little cheated by some fashion blogs because I wonder how “real” all those outfits are, so I love your willingness to share what you actually wear every day.
    And IMBY has great stuff! I’d want to buy all the things… but specifically the francoise striped top, dahlia blouse, Miley dress, and all the jewelry. :)

  78. I’m loving the Kala moto jacket. It looks like a great layering piece to add some of the edge of a leather jacket while still being indoor/work appropriate.

  79. Congrats on the 2 years! Love finding new ethical clothing and styling ideas from you :) I’d love to get the Kala moto jacket or the Convertible pantsuit, it looks so comfy

  82. I’m loving the grey pocket dress! It looks so comfy.

    I’m so glad I found your blog recently – as a fellow Portlander, it’s nice to see a style blogger dress for the weather I’m actually experiencing! Plus I appreciate that you wear real outfits, and not “blog outfits”.

  83. I love your blog, congratulations! For the giveaway I would love the perfect jeans or the culottes.

  84. Congratulation on your anniversary. I enjoy reading your blog. I would buy the perfect jeans.

  85. Congratulations on two years! I’ve only been following a couple months but I feel like I’ve learned so much :) I especially love your weekly rundown, you always give me so much to think about.

    Imby’s spring collection is awesome! I’ve totally been eyeing the My Boys Tee in the graphite wash. I’ve always been a sucker for black washes like that haha, and yet haven’t really worn that look!

  86. Definitely that denim kimono! And happy anniversary! I’ve been following along for about a year now and really enjoy your authentic and accessible approach to ethical fashion.

  87. I would definitely snatch up the Kala Classic Moto Jacket! Congrats on the blogiversary!

  88. Cheers to your anniversary! Your blog has become one I regularly follow and trust for advice and guidance.

    The Ace Pleat Top looks so versatile and comfortable. I’ve reduced my closet by about 50% over the past couple years and now look for versatile, neutral items, like this!

  91. Congrats! You’re blog has helped me find so many sustainable producers. Thanks for that. I’d grab the Crater Necklace, it’s such a cool statement piece.

  92. Congratulations! This weekend also marks my two year anniversary in my job, so I’ve been doing some looking back of my own the past few days.
    I can’t decide if I’d go for the City Sweater for maximum comfort or the Convertible Pantsuit for maximum versatility… :)

  93. That French Terry Live in Tee looks ridiculously comfortable but still visually interesting. I’d also spring for the brass cuff bracelets as well! Thanks for introducing me to IMBY.

  94. The French Terry Live-In Tee looks like perfection! And happy blog anniversary to you– I’ve been getting your blog posts by email and really enjoying the content the past several months– keep it up!

  96. Congratulations! Love this blog, it’s a source of inspiration for my closet. If I had to pick one thing from IMBY, it’d be the Simply Sophisticated Pocket Dress from Corinne Collection. It looks like an easy, comfy piece that can be dressed up or down!

  98. Congrats on your anniversary! Thanks for introducing your readers to a new brand. If I won the contest, I’d definitely get the backyard tee (and more).

  100. Amazing website, so inspirational in all aspects. Thank you for providing connections for us to ethical fashion and topics. Congrats on your two year anniversary!! I am loving the my boys tee and the simply sophisticated pocket dress from IMBY!
