A recap and some final reading

Day 19...  a recap of what we learned and d one reading.  This has been great fun and inspirational to continue with my passion for sustainable apparel.  Here's the list of books that are recommended.  I've read a few of these and look forward to reading some more. 

Fashion & Sustainability by Kate Fletcher
Sustainable Fashion Textiles by Kate Fletcher
Sustainable Fashion Handbook by Sandy Black
Overdressed: Shopping in the age of cheap fashion by Elizabeth Cline
Factory Girls by Lesley Chang

I would also add anything by my inspirational teacher, Sass Brown and follow her blog ecofashion talk.

    Jen is...

    ...an adventurous spirit from Milwaukee, Wisconsin that still cannot believe she has become "Southern" as life in North Carolina now has made 70 degree days "jacket weather".   

    Possibly banned from the home state by repeatedly saying that North Carolina beer is some of the best in the world. 

    Despite a huge fear of commitment, married their best friend after buying and remodeling a 700 square foot home.  Adopted 2 energetic dogs in that tiny home of many projects .  Chance & Daisy, who also enjoy their aging days in a home twice the size with their own pool in the back yard and access to a nice neighbor's big wooded yard full of squirrels and other random wildlife.

    Lucky enough to be employed 20+ years in the apparel industry working with some awesome people on many big and small brands.  Thankful for all the amazing places this career has taken me to and all the interesting people it's brought into my life.

    Full of hobbies including thrifting, yoga, hot sauce and international sweet treats. 

    Pictured in a place my dreams are made of, a Thai sweet shop in Ayutthaya that some amazing coworkers took me to on a day off.
