2024 Fashion Sustabiailty and Wellness for Women of Color

by Kimberly Waldropt September 16, 2024

So, picture this: we're at The ReUp Wellness Brunch at Shell's Loft, right in Brooklyn, hanging out with a bunch of amazing women! We're talking about fashion, personal style, and feeling good inside and out. One thing we all loved chatting about is how important it is to think about sustainability when we shop for clothes. Thrifting is like a superpower against all the waste that piles up when we buy too many cheap, fast-fashion items.

When we swap stories about our favorite clothes, it hits us - choosing quality pieces is like giving our wardrobes a big hug! These well-made gems not only last longer but also make us feel all cozy inside. Oh, and let's not forget how social media sometimes tricks us into buying stuff we don't really need. We should go for clothes that not only look good on us but also make us feel amazing. Let's all rock what makes us feel awesome, embracing our unique styles and feeling like our best selves, one fantastic outfit at a time!

Here are some images from our latest pop-up at Shell's Loft in Brooklyn New York.

More in-person events

Last fall and winter, we held a number of pop-ups in Maryland, Brooklyn and NYC, and are planning to do the same this year, adding more events in each.

We’d love to bring our pop-ups to other regions, but we need to be a little bigger to be able to take that on. (So tell your friends about TERRA-TORY!)

Confidence Back

I’ve been suffering from eczema on my ear for months! I’ve tried all creams and oils and nothing has worked. I’ve been so embarrassed to wear my hair up because my ear was literally white and flaky.
I finally tried this body butter in combination with the oil from this line and OMG what a difference. It’s only been a week and I’m so excited to see the long term results. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Experience

First of all, I really lucked out because somehow my package got here in about 24 hrs?? I was really excited to try this as I'm a fellow Caribbean woman who looks forward to yearly sorrel offerings and understands the cultural significance. I used it with the Goshi washcloth and it really amped up the lather experience. The scent is divine and I felt amazing post-shower. These types of intentionally made products really elevate my shower experience, its luxurious!

I’ve been using the body butters religiously for a few years now and the calm tranquility one is my favorite. Great smell not overpowering and I can still wear my favorite perfumes with it. (Honestly they all smell good but the lavender one is really relaxing) Super moisturizing. It feels like a little gift to my skin every time I use it (daily). On the rare occasion I run out before I’ve restocked, the difference in my skin is drastic and upsetting. 10/10

The best candle I’ve ever had

Usually candles will bother my sinuses and leave me with a headache, even ones with a milder scent. This candle smells AMAZING and I haven’t had any headaches even when I let it burn for hours.

Cleared up my eczema

I can’t say enough how much I love this soap. Within a few weeks my skin was moisturized and so soft. I’ve battled with eczema since a child and this soap has helped me more than products from the dermatologist. Thank you so much
