Put Your Armor On

As you prepare for the holidays, consider what you want your wardrobe to say about you. Let's move away from disposable fashion and towards thoughtful, empowering choices.

Embracing authenticity in your style means celebrating what sets YOU apart—expressing yourself freely and allowing each item in your wardrobe to be a reflection of your true identity. It's not just about looking great; it's also about feeling good on the inside and the outside, Amor.

Finding your personal style takes time and experimentation, but it's worth the effort. By following these tips, you'll be on your way to developing a wardrobe that reflects who you are and makes you feel confident and stylish. 

In this post, we share articles and reports specifically around the plight of women working in the garment industry, the dangers of fast fashion, what has to change, greenwashing in the industry, and what we can do to help. There are many other resources to dive into but these ten are a great place to start.

Our first collection is coming soon and it will have foundational pieces that will be building blocks for your fashionable and sustainable wardrobe.  This is one of the looks we created with our friend Nicole during our special preview/fitting/self-photo photo shoot. We love how she matched a vibrant orange halter (also one of our pieces) with 100% linen navy blue palazzos, with a statement necklace to boot. With this outfit you have your new professional photo! Check out our reel to see Yen pair it with a classic long-sleeved polo, and Tali pair white palazzos with a short-sleeved polo.

We'd like to give a big thank you to Nushu Network for featuring Armore Collective and our founder Greg Perez in their blog. In the post Greg shared her thoughts about starting a fashion brand, her journey as a women entrepreneur, and some tips for aspiring women entrepreneurs. Here are key takeaways and snippets from the blog post

One fabric you’ll see a lot of in our collections is linen. While technology has brought us new kinds of sustainable fabric, linen is a classic fabric that has been around for years. In this blog post, we share the different reasons why linen continues to be a fabric loved by designers, artisans, and modern fashion icons like yourself. 

In our last blog post we shared a way to debrief and take stock of the year that was. In this second part, as part of your personal strategic planning process, it’s time to think about your goals and plan. The process is similar to strategic planning for an enterprise, but this time for yourself.

Now that we are nearing the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the year that was and determine what you want in 2023. Companies and enterprises hold strategic planning sessions and we can adopt this practice in our personal lives. This is a two-part blog to help you do just that. Part 1 - Debrief, Part 2 - Goal Setting and Planning
