About this FieldTrip
Ok. We’re excited for this one.
For those fashion nerds, creative folks, and garment anthropologist who want to learn the real-deal about key fashion pieces, plus sustainability - This is for you.
The global theme this month is INCLUSIVE, and because sustainability and gender fluidity is the new hot topic in the fashion industry, we want to provide some tools on how to include sustainability into your wardrobe.
In this hands-on workshop, stylist and founder of ReLove and her team, will teach you how to be more conscious of your fashion choices, what to look for, how to spot those investment pieces - aka. the perfectly worn leather moto jacket, coveted 90’s Levi’s, and true lasting labels that align with your identity.
You’ll learn easy-to-master techniques to help develop your own cutting edge style with sustainability and mindfulness at its core, teaching you how to develop a more thoughtful, sustainable and inclusive relationship with your wardrobe, and have a chance to experiment with the racks of ReLove, push your style limits, and practice what you have learned.
This is an evening workshop. Sustainably made snacks, local drinks, and smiles (as always) will be provided!

How to make the most of FieldTrips
The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Show up fully
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Stay curious
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Celebrate your host
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
Support each other
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
Not vibing?
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
