A Wine Tasting Weekend on Whidbey Island

Wednesday, November 6, 2019

Thank you Go Whidbey Camano for partnering on this post! Whidbey and Camano Islands are located in the middle of Puget Sound and an easy drive from Seattle. Drive off the mainland to Whidbey & Camano Islands!

Just a short drive and ferry ride from the Seattle metro area sits beautiful Whidbey Island. I grew up on Whidbey and it's where I got married (at a vineyard!). It's also one of my favorite weekend destinations to drive off the mainland. The scenic beauty and tranquility of Whidbey island provide the perfect backdrop for a weekend of wine tasting.

On the largest island of Puget Sound's island gems find small family wineries and distilleries creating critically acclaimed and award winning wines and spirits nested in vineyards and farms with unpretentious hospitality. Wine tasting happy place!

I recently partnered with GoWhidbeyCamano for a weekend on Whidbey Island for the Savor Spring Food Wine and Spirits Tour. My husband S joined me and we had the best time wine tasting at the island's wineries and distilleries, staying at the beautiful Comforts of Whidbey Bed & Breakfast and enjoying the tranquility and beauty of Whidbey Island.

Sustainable Fashion with Amour Vert

Friday, August 16, 2019

Meaning 'Green Love' in French, Amour Vert is a sustainable fashion brand on a mission to revolutionize the fashion industry to make the world a more sustainable place!

Sustainable Fashion with Amour Vert

Disclosure: Affiliate links are occasionally used throughout this site, which means I might make a very small commission if you click on a link and make a purchase. Items gifted are marked c/o. Thank you for supporting Story of My Dress!  

I am also currently on a mission to make my closet as sustainable as possible! This means loving and wearing the clothes I already have, purchasing secondhand clothing at thrift and vintage stores instead of new, repairing clothing instead of tossing and when a new item is truly needed, purchasing it from a sustainable brand, like Amour Vert!

According to the Green Strategy, "Sustainable fashion can be defined as clothing, shoes and accessories that are manufactured, marketed and used in the most sustainable manner possible, taking into account both environmental and socio-economic aspects."

With beautiful, versatile, sustainable and thoughtfully designed clothing that's both good for you and the planet, Amour Vert is all about being effortlessly sustainable. I love to shop at Amour Vert when I need a new item in my closet! Green Love! Love! Love!

As a huge proponent of sustainable fashion, I was so excited to learn that Amour Vert was opening a store (now open!) at University Village in Seattle. I was honored to receive an invitation to the grand opening and the store is absolutely worth a visit (you can also shop online!)

In addition to stocking the Amour Vert in-house brand, Amour Vert also carries a handful of other sustainable brands in line with their mission, such as Veja and Machete. From silk midi dresses to the softest of  tees to an exclusive denim line with AGOLDE, each piece at Amour Vert is absolutely sustainable-closet worthy!
