the next Frank Usher Accessories TSV is on the 25/11/19
I bought two of their rose patterned snoods, I call them infinity scarves, in faux fur & they're beautiful. I've salved my plastic hating conscience by telling myself that they'll be in my wardrobe for years & hopefully one day there will be a way to recycle polyester items. At £18 & no p&p they are value for money & would make excellent Christmas presents. As with most other companies their products are on a wide spectrum from gorgeous to grotty, somehow the genteel June makes them all sound desirable.
I recently watched a documentary about the plastic polluting the oceans.
Turns out, the worst pollutant is microscopic plastic fibres coming off our 'plastic' clothing, when we wash them. The filters in the washing machines and sewage plants aren't geared up to catch these, as they're so tiny. The fish then swallow these microscopic pieces of plastic which get into the food chain, and I think they said some of the fibres are also floating about in the air.
Scary stuff.
