I want to know that it’s not leaving a negative mark.

It's more important to be a person of substance and purpose and not just be a pretty face. Agree?
If there is a chance to pick between a fashionable item only and one that is aesthetic with value, it's a no-brainer which one you'll opt for.
From dresses to accessories, there’s a wide range of gorgeous items available in the market today. Thanks to the internet, we can even purchase them without leaving the house.
But is it enough for you to own just a pretty piece? Wouldn’t it be nice to buy something that’s more than just beautiful to look at?

Emma Watson wore a dress made of trash in the red carpet. She said and I quote, “It’s not enough for me anymore that it’s a beautiful item or a beautiful piece. I want to know that it’s not leaving a negative mark.”
I couldn’t agree more.
What do you usually look for before buying? Is it enough for you that it's just pretty? Be more than just pretty with Uncommon Goods.

These are so simply elegant! I consider myself a minimalist and am so much more at peace with order and simplicity, but I rarely achieve this, even in my wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteLovely and unique piece :)

gorgeous pieces and I love buying stuff that has benefits others beyond just the sale of the product.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, I always try to check where the product was made - if it's a beauty product I check if it's vegan/not tested on animals, if clothes - made in a place when people get enough money. Toms has similar program - they give a pair of shoes to kids, I'm not sure how does it work now, but it was very popular couple years ago.
ReplyDeleteThere are some beautiful items over at the site. I particularly loved the Story of the Earth bracelets. Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteI love that lace look necklace, such a cool look! It's awesome that more and more companies are making a concerted effort to have a positive imprint on the world too.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!! Great jewelry and giving back all at the same time
