Similarly, FashionCycle is the brand’s way of recycling your pre-loved clothing in return of money off your next fashion or home purchase.
As part of its journey to becoming more sustainable, the brand has released the ethically sourced 'Maisie' collection. The nightwear is made from recycled polyester fibers (excluding the lace trims) and designed with a glossy satin finish for a luxe feel.
The collection comes in lots of shapes and colours, from timeless black and ivory slip dresses to hot pink and powder blue cami sets.
Lovers of all things home and interiors can benefit from a generous discount at Isle of Skye Candle Company by returning any empty glass from their candle and diffuser ranges.
