Sweating much? I know I am. This humidity sure came out of nowhere, last week I was wearing an over-sized SWEATER, skinny jeans, and ballet flats can you believe it? I think today I wore less than half of what I was wearing last week, ridiculous! But hey, I’m not complaining. There’s nothing like trekking up a mountain to SFU in the sun, ice cap in hand, with a flower in my hair! But I know what you’re thinking, how the heck do we work within this lovely but hot weather to look great but feel great too? Two tricks of the trade: Eco-friendly fabrics and mineral makeup.
Born and raised in Vancouver, Elroy by Leanne McElroy began her fashion journey at a young age creating her own garments. After attending design school, Leanne traveled the world and experimented with designs that were sold in local boutiques. Being aware of a woman`s prerogative to be both health conscious and trendy, Leanne began using organic and eco-friendly fabrics to steer her clothing line in a fashion forward and style driven direction. She understands that consumers want to be able to support their health and wellness by wearing organic fibres throughout the day, work, play, night, and especially in the summer when the humidity begins to kick in. This way, women can look amazing and feel great all day long on their summer adventures.
