About Me

My photo
Style Destino is my personal style space bout cruelty-free and vegetarian style. Fashion is not above someone's life and it is irresponsible when someone makes a fashion choice that involves taking a poor animal's life. I believe in style that has a conscience. We are in 21st century where technology has advanced immensely, there are myriad options available and any person with a desire can make things happen. So it is sheer selfishness and irresponsible behaviour when people make unethical fashion choices. Through StyleDestino I share everything cruelty-free and ethical in my style. I do not use any handbags, shoes or accessories made from leather (animal skin), the make-up I use is also vegetarian and cruelty free. Luxury and compassion can coexist stylishly and Style Destino is an attempt to prove just that. Vegan fashion is not about dowdy clothes, cheap bags, or tawdry shoes. I can just easily be vegan and trot in my Olsen heels, sporting a Stella McCartney luxurious vegan handbag while showing off my red lips painted with OCC lip tar!! I travel the world around and never find dearth of stylish, high quality vegetarian fashion.

16 Must-Watch Sustainability Documentaries on Netflix

When we consume a lot of junk food, our body feels like crap and doesn't function at its best. The same way if we consume a lot of junk information, our mind is going to feel like crap and not function at its best. The information that we consume on a daily basis not only affects our daily thoughts, emotions, and mood, but it also shapes our overall perspective on the world. We are consuming massive amounts of data everyday, and our consumption has multiplied during the quarantine period. Even people who were low data users in pre-corona days are now found scrolling on their devices all-day consuming information. That's a lot of information........ Now, the important question we all need to ask ourselves is - Are we feeding ourselves with a healthy data diet? My guess is the answer is NO. Besides all the binge watching of series we are indulging in and the Instagram stories and feed that we are watching, let us use this time we have to also learn about mindfulness

#PayUp Fashion Industry To Your Garment Workers

#PayUp Fashion Industry To Your Garment Workers

“#PAYUP FASHION INDUSTRY” In times of crisis, it is the most vulnerable people in society who suffer the most impact. This is the situation currently for the millions of workers in the fashion industry who make our clothes, shoes, bags, etc, most of them women. Irony is that, in this time of need, the fashion industry is failing its workers. According to Fashion Revolution, its common practice in fashion industry for brands to pay their suppliers months after delivery. So suppliers pay upfront for the materials used to make products, incurring cost while waiting for incoming payments. Now, with the chaos created by the corona virus pandemic major fashion brands are cancelling orders & stopping payments, shirking responsibility towards its global supply chain, even when the work has already been done. Of course, even the brands are in crisis but they can’t shift the financial burden onto the supply chain, especially when most have reported hundreds of millions of dollars (so

Lessons to learn from Corona Pandemic: Is this a blessing or a curse?

Lessons to learn from Corona Pandemic: Is this a blessing or a curse?

Dear friends Hope you are doing well. Between the chaos, uncertainty and fears during this lockdown, we’ve been given time to reset ourselves, start fresh and create a new normal. What seems like a curse now, might result in a blessing. This much needed break gives us time to ponder about what really holds value (happiness and ethics vs money and greed, for example) and a reminder of our place in this world (as part of nature, not above it). In the hustle before #corona, we were lost, we had forgotten the purpose of life and we were chasing happiness in wrong places and destroying the world in the process. Consumerism, greed, animal cruelty, deforestation, polluting land, air and water. We can't blame the virus for the situation we are in. It is "each one of us" who is responsible for this pandemic. But nature is calling us, giving us a chance (perhaps the last one) to get it right. Let us all take this time seriously and not waste it completely on Netflix, ho

A Practical Guide To Vegan, Sustainable and Responsible Travel

A Practical Guide To Vegan, Sustainable and Responsible Travel

Traveling the world is one of the most fulfilling experiences you can score in life; it's enriching, it's liberating and it can be both exhilarating and peaceful at the same time. Traveling will broaden your mind in a way that nothing else possibly can. In many ways, it's one of the best investments you'll ever make for yourself. When it comes to traveling as a vegan {and sustainably}, the equation changes a little bit compared to conventional travel. While you'll get to enjoy exotic destinations and be swept up in a whirlwind of exotic cultures, when it comes to your food and accommodation choices, proper planning and research is a must as a vegan responsible traveler. How is a vegan traveler different from a conventional traveler? Vegan traveling means maintaining your vegan lifestyle even while you’re away from home, aka avoiding any kind of exploitation of and cruelty to animals. For me, vegan traveling is more than that…………. I eat not only j

4 Simple Ways To Make A Sustainable Purchase & Be An Ethical Consumer

4 Simple Ways To Make A Sustainable Purchase & Be An Ethical Consumer

Wearing Rhumaa Jacket, Nudie Vegan Jeans, Stella McCartney Shoes The resurgence of conscious living is making us consider our everyday choices. From food to fashion, there’s a dire need for us to switch to a more sustainable lifestyle to save the planet and for our health.     For those seeking to transform the concept of a green lifestyle from aspirational to achievable, there couldn’t have been better times. There are several companies committed to better practices making the life of ethical consumers less complicated than it was a few years ago. As an ethical consumer, our buying decisions are based not just on the quality and usefulness of products, but also on the ethical policies of the companies who sell them. Until a few years back, getting hold of a company’s ethical policy and information about their working practices was very challenging. Fortunately, things are much transparent now. With the help of organizations that are pushing the case of sustainability like

Here's why I ditched plastic straws and you should too: Time To Stop Sucking!

Here's why I ditched plastic straws and you should too: Time To Stop Sucking!

We're a matcha made in heaven. When I want a quick boost of energy and stay wide awake, I have my matcha latte (prefer it iced) and never with plastic straws (you can find my perfect matcha latte recipe here ). Did you notice the bamboo straw in the picture above? I'm so glad I could finally get my hands on the reusable bamboo straws. My pledge at Faeth Sustainable & Positive Change event in March was to ditch plastic straws and I am 80% there. Why no straws? I've seen heartbreaking videos of rescuers taking out plastic straws from the nose of sea turtles and read about being stuck inside penguins and others animals, killing them. Plus, the straws can't be recycled so they end up in landfill breaking down and releasing toxins. Too put things into perspective, let me share some statistics and facts {I am after all a former economics and finance student and wealth manager - I understand it better with numbers}. Plastic takes over 200 years to decompose - but
