Skirt: Mata Traders (fair trade) | Tank: Everlane (sweatshop-free) | Shoes: Sseko (fair trade)

I ordered this A-line skirt from Mata Traders a short while ago, and I find myself wearing it every week. The lightweight, woven fabric makes the skirt perfect for our warm Tennessee autumn, and I know it will layer well with tights and a sweater in winter.

My Sseko ribbon sandals are another recent purchase. I deliberate over every potential clothing purchase to make sure I’m investing in something I will wear again and again, and I’m so glad I made the leap with these sandals. The leather straps provide an easy, simple look, and I love that I can order ribbons in other colors if I want a change of pace next summer.

Each item in this outfit is something I can wear in endless combinations and several seasons, making them great updates as I work towards a minimal, sustainable wardrobe.
