t seems like the current state of the country is growing more and more intense each day. Governors are slowly locking down states as their on a mission to slow down the spread of COVID-19. What this means for small business owners is shutting down for the next two weeks up to a month. Being an entrepreneur myself, I have to admit I’m really feeling the heat. For many of them, including myself, online sales seem to be the only means of revenue. And with that said, I wanted to share some of the small fashion and lifestyle brands that could really use your support. I’m a big believer that every little purchase counts – whether that means buying a candle for yourself (or a friend) – or adding some some basics and loungewear pieces to your stash. Keep scrolling for the fashion and lifestyle brands I’m supporting now.
Lisa Says Gah
There’s a lot to love about this San-Francisco-based indie brand. I can appreciate how it’s a woman-owned business that supports independent female designers. If you’re looking for unique, one-of-a-kind pieces, you’ll more than likely find it here. They currently have a “Care Package Collection” that’s going for 20% off so you can treat yourself or someone else to something nice. How cute are these mules and this tote?
Staud
I’ve been a huge Staud supporter since the early days and continually add pieces from the brand to my wardrobe. It was founded just under 5 years ago but quickly gained recognition in the fashion world for its unique handbags and effortless, feminine silhouettes. You can shop the Staud site directly and save 25% off (10% of purchases made with this code goes to St. Vincent on Wheels, which supports the fight against COVID-19).
Frankie Shop
Frankie Shop is a cool-girl brand to know. It’s loved by fashion insiders for its understated, modern silhouettes and loosely tailored pieces. Best of all, the price points aren’t too crazy expensive – even for investment pieces like this blazer. Since the line errs on the classic side, you’ll be able to wear the pieces year after year and they’ll likely never go out of style.
Farmacy
I’m all for supporting brands that are joining the fight against the COVID-19, and Farmacy recently popped up on my radar! This small indie beauty brand is donating 10,000 meals a day for the next 30 days to Feeding America. Plus, the farm-to-face skincare philosophy completely has me sold. I love the positive message they’re sending to the world even for being a small brand.
Manu Atelier
I love discovering new brands, but I’m also somewhat of a brand-loyal shopper. When a label strikes a certain impression on me, it’s likely that I’ll buy from them again and again. Manu Atelier is one of those brands. Their sculptural heels, two-tone designs, and and chain-strap bags are everything you need in your spring wardrobe.
Maison Louis Marie
We can all use some luxury candles, perfumes, and skincare right now. I’m personally getting ready to indulge in some Maison Louis Marie, an indie beauty brand that focuses on luxurious fragrances and non-toxic, vegan formulas. You can shop the entire line at Need Supply Co for 25% off.
Na Nin
There couldn’t be a better time to also support the slow fashion movement. If you’re just getting started shopping second hand, I highly recommend checking out Na Nin. They don’t just sell a curated selection of vintage clothing, but also have their own in-house line. The shop’s easy, effortless collection exudes the summer vibes we’re all craving right now.
The Stell
The Stell is a Brooklyn-based online boutique that sells a curated selection of clean and luxurious beauty and lifestyle products. Some of my favorite brands that they carry include Kosas, Indie Lee, and Boy Smells They are running a 30% site wide sale off full-priced items, which is not only worth shopping but worthy of supporting. Use this opportunity to stock up on candles, bath salts, and facial masks.
