Equa Eco Boutique in London: British Style, Ethically
Starre Vartan, editor of Eco Chick, in front of Equa‘s lovely window displays.
I was wandering North London recently with one of my best friends, and was deep in conversation with her on the way to the pub. When what to my wondering eyes should appear? A lovely window display that turned my head with it’s stylish display – and then I noticed that the store was eco-boutique Equa!
What a find. Of course I had to stop in, and I’m so glad I did, as I got two key pieces for Spring/Summer that are going to work perfectly with my current wardrobe mix (and well into the future).
If you visit London anytime soon (or are lucky enough to live there!) check out this great store which also boasts a superfriendly, not-snobby-at-all team of ladies to help you with sizes or style opinions.

My friend Jenn fell in love with these gorgeous boots by Terra Plana – and they were on sale too!
