I’ve always loved fashion, but my passion for new creative outfits, shapes and colors has definitely skyrocketed since ending my playing career and getting into broadcasting. 
I’ve found it’s such a fun way to express myself and share positive energy while helping to give me much needed confidence in the spotlight. 

I think for each of us it’s worth spending some time intentionally playing around and discovering our own personal style and figuring out what makes us feel the best, inside and out. There truly is in todays world outfits and styles to match and accentuate all body types and skin tones. 

One of the draw backs to enjoying new outfits though is the consumerism and waste in the clothing (and other) industries. One thing I am just as (if not more) passionate about is taking care of the planet, so fast fashion does not align with me. 

This is just one of the reasons why I love winmarkresale and have partnered with them for the last 4 years. Since I bought my very first pair of used skates and equipment at playitagainsports I have been a fan of their brands and what they stand for, which in total have recycled over 1.9 Billion items since 2010!! Unreal. 

From clothes at platoscloset and styleencore, to musical instruments musicgoround and baby stuff onceuponachild not only do they reduce waste through reusing and recycling, but they help people afford things they otherwise wouldn’t be able to and help people make money recycling their stuff that they’re no longer using. 

Very very cool. And personally recycling my clothes at their stores and selling my old hockey gear at my local Play it Again Sports has definitely helped me feel better and live lighter on the planet in my fashion and hockey journey (it’s also low key fun!). 

In short; Find your style, have fun, be confident, and take care of the planet!❤️🤗
Happy Earth Day Everyone!! 🌏🌍🌎
