The Sleepover Club: Another Year Older, Another Year Wiser?

It's Olivia's birthday! To celebrate, we're discussing the concepts of age and time. Some of us may dread getting older, but why is that? Growing up means knowing yourself more, learning how to assert yourself, and growing confident in who you are. But as our society is still so obsessed with the idea of youth, with each year that goes by it can feel as though our relevance as human beings is dwindling. We discuss how the concept of ageing is deeply rooted in misogyny, why we need to take marginalised people seriously regardless of their age, and much more.

This week, the incredibly talented Rhi Dancey is on hand with recommendations to get you through the week. Rhi is the woman behind our latest mesh merch collaboration, which is fully sustainable and made to order. Want to follow her advice and pull a look for your upcoming zoom meetings?
