For the past decade, Australian-Ghanaian label YEVU has been empowering women and single mothers in Ghana by providing them with fair and sustainable jobs that pay above the living wage. It all started when Aussie-born Anna Robertson and Ghanaian-born Felicia Adwubi met in the country’s capital, Accra. Together, they founded YEVU with the goal of supporting local women who face little financial security or independence. How’s that for a good story?

you beauty

This beauty bag ($39) by is rather deceptive. The outside? Cheery cherry-red blooms in a retro-inspired pattern. The inside (once we get our mitts on it)? A clutter of cosmetics – some well loved, some well past their use-by dates, and some still unopened. It’s fitting, then, that Sage x Clare’s collection, Marguerite, is made for those who embrace a
