Building More Partnerships With Ethical Brands And Female Entrepreneurs



Hi ladies, if you are discovering my blog for the first time you may not know that I am  passionate about giving back, staying true to my ethical values, being as sustainable as possible and supporting women in business. This past year has been a great journey, I have turned my attention towards consumer behaviour and it's been a huge eye opener. It's called conscious consumerism or as ethical brands call it: ethical consumerism. Once you start the on this path of knowledge and discovery - it's hard to turn back. 

Let me introduce you to an the brands I have discovered....


The Latest Ethical Brand 

Very recently I discovered another new ethical brand that ticks all the Roberta Style Lee boxes - Sapellé. They are an ethical online fashion and lifestyle brand that brings together the best of African inspired design - they loved my website and what I do, and I loved their website and what they do. The perfect starting point for a partnership. 
Upon further investigation into one another's business we realised our target audience is quite similar too and by partnering up we felt could offer extra value to our existing customers. 

We are also both keen on the 541 philosophy of sustainable styling - we should always be trying to stretch each investment so we can create up to 5 new looks. Check out this Sapellé blog - 1 dress 5 looks. 

We decided to kick things off in December with a last minute Black Friday promo offering FREE PERSONAL STYLING at their Sapellé showrooms (London) for a Christmas shopping event on the 3rd December 2016



I was on hand to offer some personal styling tips and one-to-one styling sessions and help Sapellé customers make the most of their purchases. The event went well and we have decided to do another one in early 2017.

Roberta Style Lee Inspirational Women Series Podcast Ep004 - Interview with Emma Heathcote-James





I was so excited to get some time with Emma Heathcote-James and interview her on my podcast. She's a super busy, award-winning entrepreneur (and female force of nature) - so getting an hour in with her was no joke!  This woman means BUSINESS! 

Emma joins me on the Inspirational Women Series and talks about her fantastic journey from creating soap on the kitchen worktop to wholesale distribution and winning a string of awards. 
 
We talk about her challenges, what drives her and how she copes with living her life at 100 miles an hour. Emma reveals what keeps her happy, healthy, confident and sane - she also shares lots of great tips on how to compete as a small independent brand against the likes of large businesses such as Procter and Gamble.










This interview was very inspiring for me. There is something very motivating about speaking to someone with as much fire and gusto as Emma. She may be busy but she also knows how important it is to take proper care of herself, why that is critical for success and why good health is wealth.  

I applaud her for everything she does and all she has achieved. What a women! 

Her company, The Little Soap Company produces natural, chemical free soap for humans and pets. They have a range of interesting products worth checking out if you are looking for some ethical, sustainable Christmas gifts this year... I haven't done a review of the soaps yet, but I am certain they will be good quality.

Well, that's nearly it from me. As always I would love to hear your thoughts - just hit reply to this email to provide me with any feedback. Please also take the time to ❤️ the track on Soundcloud if you like it. After the official release, the interview will be on YouTube too which I would love for you to share! 

Stay fab.
