My hair is straight but I'm not.


My coming out story.

I'd like to share my story with you guys because people have always been bewildered when I tell them I'm gay and I get various comments like "You're too pretty to be a lesbian" with a string of personal questions related to my sexuality. How weird would it be if you brought up your boyfriend in a conversation casually like "me and my boyfriend live together" and I responded. "Boyfriend? oh wow you have a boyfriend? How did that happen? Did you always know you liked boys? How do you have sex?" 
Well, this has been my life for the last 11 years. Long winded conversations in groups of people. work colleagues, with new friends, new people I meet about my life and the way I live it. SO, here's my story.

How Did I know?
I didn't wake up one morning and decided "Fuck it, I'm going to be a complete rebel and label myself a lesbian" When I was in my teens, being with boys made me feel uncomfortable. I dated a few boys but there was no chemistry. I went along with it because thats what everyone else was doing. Kissing boys, losing their virginity, growing up. I hated sex with my boyfriend. It was horrible. I avoided it at all costs. I didn't know I liked girls, I just knew I didnt want to ever have sex with a man again! 

First experience.
I met my first ever girlfriend and we were friends to begin with. She told me she was a lesbian and the moment she told me I had butterflies in my stomach. I don't know why. I felt warm and fuzzy. We grew close and I had my first kiss. I felt those firework straight away. That giddy-school-girl feeling was happening. When we had sex I just knew what to do. It worked. I felt right. Never ever have I felt wrong about my sexuality. Thats how I knew. 
We didn't last long because I was too scared to come out to all my  friends and family. 
Girlfriend number 2 came along not long later and that's when I fell completely in love. I knew she would be the one I told everyone about. My life changed and it would never be the same again. 

Telling my friends.
I knew it had to be done. In science class year 11 I plucked up the courage to tell my friend Zara I had a girlfriend and her response was "About time you told me. I've known you liked girls for ages" I was dumbfounded. I asked her how she knew. She told me "the way you spoke about her" and how I disliked boys so much. haha! This wasn't going to be as hard as I thought. So the next opportunity I got was at break in school. I remember it like it was yesterday. My two best friends Leanna and Kayleigh and I were stood in the school hall and I legs shaking I said "girls I have something I need to tell you" Both of them looked at me as If I had some juicy gossip. I started to feel sick, throat dried up and I somehow managed to say "I'm a lesbian and I've got a girlfriend" You couldnt write what heppend next...
as soon as I said those words the school bell rang and Leanna said "Oh well, we got maths now" 
and both girls walked off leaving me stood there like a fucking idiot! 
(Im laughing as I write - bloody bitches) I was in a seperate maths class so I spent the next hour in complete torture wondering if they were still going to be my friends. When we went for lunch the questions came. After I answered them their response was "we don't care" 
As the news spread across the school, most people were bewildered. Nobody had "come out as a lesbian" in our year group and most people called me "brave" the fact that I was a lesbian was accepted straight away. I was lucky to be surrounded by awesome people. Don't get me wrong there were a few idiots who spat "lesbian" as they walked past but I was confident enough to stick my middle finger up at them. I didn't care what random people thought of me. My friends still loved me for me. Fuck them. :)

Telling my family.
I lived with my godmother at the time and after a very drunk 16th birthday party news had got back to her and I get a phonecall from her at work (whilst all of my friends were at my house still hungover)
My phone rang I answered it and Trudy asks me subtle as a GUN "Laura, are you a lesbian?" I just remember going pale and sayin "NO. course not" she said we'd discuss it when she got home. I scrubbed the house and sat on the top of the stairs when I knew she was coming up the path. She walked in asked me something about food. I walked down the stairs, burst into tears and said "I am a lesbian. Simone is my girlfriend" She hugged me and said "You'll always be the same Laura to us. It doesn't matter." then she followed that with "i've already told everyone in the family" I couldnt believe how lovely everyone was.
I was too scared to tell my mother and father so I told them via text. 
When I visited my mother the next day she made me a cuppa and said "so you're a queer?" I nearly died. "No mam, I'm gay. I'm not queer." her reply to that was "So, can I meet your friend?" meaning my girlfriend. I told her of course and she never made an issue of it.
it took me 4 years to tell my dad and when I did he and his wife said "Laura we already knew" and he kissed me and told me I was still "his prize" 
Everyone in the family treat me exactly the same but my sister Emma did once asks me deadly serious at a wedding "So, whats prosecco? Is that a lesbian drink?"
I nearly choked. Through hysterics I replied "No Em, it's just a nice sparkling wine." 
I love my family so much.


"Have you got a boyfriend?" 
Luckily I'm really confident and I think the fact that I'm extreemly feminine and look feminine when I get asked if I have a boyfriend or a partner when I reply with "yes shes a woman" for the first few years people would say "you're too pretty" "but you dont look like a lesbian" What does a lesbian look like? They are just women of all styles and shapes and sizes who fancy other women. Also, for the record, just because you're a woman, don't assume lesbians will fancy you. We don't. We are not going to hit on you, don't flatter youself. 
However,
People are usually cool with it, Or like my colleague Sian they go beetroot red. (haha sorry sian) 
In the past people have asked me a string of ridiculous and personal questions PLEASE STOP. I don't want to give my lifestory. Let's stop labelling eachother. 
Love is Love. Love is Genderless. Society is more open minded and accepting than they were 10 years ago. It was daunting at the time to come out as who I was but now we are moving forward. It's nice to see the world shaping into a place where equality lives. 

So without making my story a trilogy I just want to finish with this...
Thank you for those who stood by me in school. You gave me confidence in myself and made me feel loved and accepted. 
Thank you to the very few idiots who used "lesbian" as an insult. Corrcet, I am a lesbian.
 The word doesnt hurt, sorry. #sorrynotsorry
If I shouted "Straight" at you, you'd think I was an idiot. 
Well thats what I though of you. 
I am so lucky to be surrounded by amazing people. You guys rock my world. 
If you got this far, Thanks for reading my story.

Hugs

KIKO MILANO HAUL APRIL '16


I've read a few reviews recently on KIKO products and some are great and positive, others not so keen and so I needed to try them for myself. I was super lucky to click on the website the day they had a BUY 3 PRODUCTS, GET 3 PRODUCTS FREE offer on. 
BINGO! Perfect opportunity. 

They had free shipping so it took about 8 days to arrive after I'd purchased but when they did I was in love. The packaging is really chic and the products sell themselves really well. 

Here's what I got: 

  •  3D instant volume lipgloss. 
  • Face make up fixer spray.

  • Mat Mousse (Matte foundation)
  • Luscious Lashes Mascara.
  • Smart Lip Pencil.
  • Soft Focus Concealer 
I'll trial and test them and give some reviews of each one :-) Anyone else use KIKO? I know they have opened a store in St Davids Cardiff too if anyone locally wants to swatch before buying. 

Hugs,

Laura xx

Drunk Shopping

OOPS!

We've all heard the stories about people who buy random things when they're drunk or book holidays and really regret it in the morning! A friend of mine once told me she woke up after a bottle of wine and had booked a £1,800 holiday! I was MORTIFIED for her but you know what? she went that summer and loved every minute. I laughed at her holiday photos thinking about how it came about but she had an amazing time. When people tell me about the random things they buy  I've always been smug and said "I've never done that" or "How could you be so stupid?" 

WELL... 
When you're at a house party, drunk off a prosecco based cocktail after loosing several rounds of drink roulette your mind isn't quite clear. My friend Alex started searching for festivals for the summer, encouraged by the other girls we all thought it was amazing to drop £800 on festival tickets to T IN THE PARK! I vaguely remember dancing and toasting the occasion too. 
HOWEVER, we live in SOUTH WALES and this festival is a 7.5 HOUR DRIVE AWAY in SCOTLAND!!! 
When I woke up and the girls were still laughing and excited I decided to embrace the fact that we're going. WAAAH! 
We even upgraded to the pre-pitched tents with hot showers, pamper stations and mobile phone charging so all is grand! more £££ (crying face) but I cannot wait.


So yeah... My first ever drunk purchase was festival tickets. I'm £300 down and flat broke but my summer is shaping up nicely! I'm sure my older self will look back and pat me on the back for grabbing life but the scruff of its neck (mega LOLS) 

Anyone else drunk purchased? I'd love to hear your stories! 
You can tweet me or find me on instagram on the links below!

5 ways to wear GENDERLESS CLOTHING


GDL Clothing doesn't have a specific targeted audience! The clothes are made for EVERYONE, it's just how YOU choose to wear them... Let me show you five very different ways to style GDL to suit your own look.

ACTIVE LIFESTYLE. GYM 


The GDL team spend the day at newly renovated GELSEI Academy HYPE GYM a few weeks back and some of their top Body Builders (including the gorgeous Stefanie Nadine - Booty Bible Bikini Champion) to try and test our GDL Gym vest, hats and T-shirts. 
They both agreed the material was breathable and flexible - perfect for working out. In fact, they loved them so much they both nabbed an emblem vest each to keep and said they were their new favourite racer backs! Stefanie also nabbed herself a GDL bobble hat for wearing whilst working out / hanging around them gym. We are hoping to stock these vests and hats in their GYM reception soon. 


FEMININE. PARTY WEAR.


 A few of my feminine girl friends have said to me "I love the clothes, I just don't know how to wear them, I'm a girly girl" NO worries girls. I got you. Being feminine myself, I can definitely help you.
Here is the gorgeous beautician Amy Beth from #BeautySecretsByAmy modelling our classic grey Sunday Club Tee. We styled it up with this KILLER leather skirt and vampy heels. She said she couldn't wait to wear it out on a sunday session. (Drinks on a Sunday) 
When chatting with Amy on how she would wear the clothes she says this outfit suits her perfectly but she also would wear the tops with leggings and trainers for a casual day and she matched out Overachiever baseball top with jeans and heels and her Louis Vuitton clutch for a day of shopping. 
Here is Amy's instagram selfie of her shopping day!
I've added a few more feminine looks for those girls who just aren't sure... take a look at a few more versions of our other GDL genderless line...
 

We teamed Sorry Not Sorry Tee with some leather pants and either heels, converse or pumps.
And the World Wide Vibes with the vampy heels and skirt combo. Don't be afraid to swap the midi skirt for a Mini, or the Leather for Denim. If you're on holidays maybe swap the skirt for a pair of denim shorts, sandals and our GDL hat. YOU GOT THIS GIRLS. Don't forget to tag us in your photos to show of your fem GDL! 


FROM DAY TO NIGHT. SMART OR CASUAL?


In our shoot with Welsh Actor Adam Byard we took his style from casual day wear to evening wear in a few simple steps. Pictured left modelling our Sorry Not Sorry from the SS16 line Adam is wearing the Tee paired with jeans and trainers for his casual day look. 
We then added smart brown shoes, a brown tailored blazer and some sunglasses for a smart summer afternoon to evening look. This T-shirt is our only LONGLINE so it gives a different look to the other t-shirts.
Adam also modelled some other various smart and casual looks. I love this androgynous black blazer and jeans combo with our classic sunday club tee. I envison this look on both men and women. I also had to put up his laid back emblem vest look. Note adam wearing our MULTIBRAID and GDL SNAPBACK in the emblem vest picture. These accessories are summer essentials! The multibraid has multi uses (hence the name) It can be worn as a bracelet, necklace or anklet on both men, women and any non binary gender. 


BEACH. SUMMER HOLIDAY.

GDL is totally made for the beach. Our organic cotton is loose and breathable so be sure to pack them all and make GDL your summer essentials! Tie the vest and wear over a bikini girls for a crop top look! Pair with denim shorts or skirt to take the look through to the evening. One of my faves is wearing the emblem vest over a bikini. the GDL SNAP BACK IS ESSENTIAL for summer and our 13.00 price tag is an absolute STEAL! 


The ways in which you could wear GDL in summer is endless. Our brand reflect all shapes and sizes and don't forget we stock from size XS to XXXL in some items. If you're size isn't on the site (perhaps its out of stock and is temporarily off the site) don't be afraid to email the team to find out at contactgdlclothing@gmail.com and one of our team will be happy to assist you. 



LOUNGE. BED. 

Check out the gorgeous Leah and Jess in their boudoir shoot. These girls look gorgeous in our clothes. I absolutely adore the LOVE IS GENDERLESS Tee on Leah. 
The couple took to the studio to help create a sunday chill shoot and nailed it. 

I also love model Ashleigh in our Love is Genderless. This girl is effortlessly beautiful. The love is genderless is a classic GDL statement piece. We love promoting equality in fashion and slogans are just one way we campaign.

So just to round up my post I want to say to anyone who's looked at our website or looked at our instagram, twitter or Facebook accounts and thought what we do is great but haven't bought, I hope this blog shows you how you can make GDL clothing suit your style.

PINK HAIR, DON'T CARE

I BLOODY LOVE BLEACH LONDON! 

HAIR HORROR STORY!

Before I explain about this product lets get a little back story on my poor hair this last few months... I've wanted pink hair for a while now but after an unfortunate incident where I tried to go silver / grey and ended up being khaki green, I have been a little off put to say the least. 
My hairdresser did the colour change for me, she is fully qualified, been doing my hair for years. She asked the girls at the colour wear house for the most recommended product for the colour I wanted and they advised her of this certain brand (not sure what it is now). Anyway, She puts the dye on all going well she starts to look a little panicked a few minutes in. She checks my hair then says, "lets wash it off Laur, It looks a little dark." 
Within a few minutes my hair had gone from bright blonde to black roots and khaki GREEN SHIMMER. I nearly died. I was so upset I just calmly walked over to the fridge, pulled out a bottle of Rosé wine and chugged it. My hair dresser was like "If I weren't driving I would be doing the same" 
After a bleach bath and an extremely sore scalp I ended up having to go brunette with strands of blonde. I had awful breakage and my hairdresser was distraught. The whole process took 5 hours! 

BUT, the worst part of my hair disaster is that when she goes back to the hair warehouse in Cardiff the SAME girl who sold her the product listened to the story and calmly says "weird yeah a few people have said the same" .....UHHHH WHAT??! ARE YOU KIDDING ME WOMAN?
Marie (my lovely hairdresser) was so shocked she didn't even know how to respond. Absolute MANIACS! So anyway, hair horror over, my hair is gently healing, scalp mended and hair growing a bit thicker now.


I decided I wanted a slight pink tone but too afraid to actually try anything I see these Bleach London Rosé Shampoo and Conditioners! Voila! Answer to my prayers. 
You simply follow the instructions to leave on for a few minutes and rinse off. You see the pink change after about a minute and I was so excited. I LOVED the initial pink rinse it gave, I did this on my 26 birthday -before shopping. I absolutely loved it. I wasn't brave enough to leave it on too long (obvious reasons) but this was the colour it came out...


A nice subtle pink rinse. I Adored it. I had lots of compliments too!

Since then, I've washed it out (just washes away after maybe two washes) and then gain re-did it leaving the product on for longer (than it says on the bottle oops) I also added a tiny spray of Claires Accessories Pink ROSE hair spray (wash out) to give the colour a bit more depth. 
and here were my results 

PINK HUR, DONT CUR! 

And I love being pink, I do feel so safe in the knowledge it'll wash out if I need it too. 
totally recommend this product. I know there are other colours so may give them a try.
You can get them from boots or bleach londons online website 

Hugs,
Laura-Amie xx

Lush Cosmetics Spring Bloggers Event '16


Back in February I attended the Bloggers event at Lush Cosmetics in Cardiff where us blogger gals got to try and test out all their new spring products swell as all our usual faves! It was an evening event and we were greeted with a blueberry and elderflower (I think) sparkling drink and some cute easter choccies. Soon as you walk into a lush store you just KNOW where you are. The smell, the colours, the friendly staff it all has its own lushness about it.

So we wander around looking at the new spring products and here are some of those:
There carrots are AMAZING and smell so fresh and lemony. I didn't see them last year but they've had an upgrade to the purples and pinks you see here. Not only will they look gorgeous in the bathroom, again they smell gorgeous. A total bargain at 6.25 for the bunch, they are re-usable and full your bath with beautiful bubbles. The oils make your skin so supple and soft. Must buy!

Lovely Ladybirds. I was lucky enough to get one of these guys in my goodie bag, YES we got AMAZING goodie bags so we could rate the products later. As soon as I put this little guy in the bath it was swirling purple and bubbling beautifully. No bath is complete without a lush product.

Here I am smashing open the Humpty Dumpty Bath bomb from lush which cracks open into 3 separate parts. The colours are gorgeous and when opened theres a little yellow bath bomb chick inside. ADORABLE. Blew my mind. 

Somewhere over the rainbow soap is BEAUTIFUL and added in here just because of how pretty it is. Reminds me of the Pride Flag too. A work colleague just got this for her birthday and loved it. came in the RAINBOW gift set and smells incredible! Lush soaps last for so long and are so kind to your skin. 

I Think the reason I LOVE lush so much is because of their whole ethos! Cruelty Free Cosmetics are the future. I can't bare the though of animals being hurt for vanity. Breaks my heart. SO WELL DONE LUSH - I LOVE YOU!!!!! 

HUGS,

The Perfect Valentines

Emma Bridgewater Factory 
Experience Day


All Emma Bridgewater fans will understand why waking up to an experience day all booked and planned for valentines was the most perfect present! My Lucy is the best. We woke up early and made the Journey to Stoke-On-Trent and my excitement was bubbling up the whole way. I felt as if I was going on a blind date, I was nervous excited. Would it be what I expected? Would I be let down? Is it as amazing as my dreams?

Driving up to the building of my dreams

We arrived just in time to take the Factory Tour and our tour guide Jane was lovely! I actually learnt so much, the pottery is made from four different types of clay and get put into these moulds to set! (The handles included!)
I asked so many questions but I won't bore you with them now! All I will say is, the price is absolutely justified.
  
It was then onto Afternoon tea. Which of course was served on full Emma Bridgewater classics! The food was delicious I fully recommend if anyone is planning a trip!



We then got to do some shopping with 15% in the gift shop! I got some feels Like Home hand wash for the bathroom and a wallflower filled candle pot! Smells divine! I absolutely love the wallflower spring collection.
We then had some bargains in the outlet which is loads of fun! Knowing how much your saving is brilliant and I don't even mind a slightly uneven pattern. especially when you consider how long it takes the ladies in the decorating studios to design them!




Next stop was the decorating studio and it is MOST CERTAINLY harder than it looks I can tell you. wow. Our mugs came out more like Primary School children had painted them. Lucy went for a safari theme -- her elephant didn't go to plan and then she added what she thought was kangaroo but even funnier when she shows me her 'kangaroo' its actually a FOX sponge! So she has a fox in her African landscape! 
Mine starts off well with summer strawberries inside the rim of the mug and it just went downhill from there. haha! My free hand bumble bees weren't so bad! we will find out once they've been fired and shipped out to us in around two weeks time!

All round, I had a wonderful day! Emma Bridgewater fans you simply must go! I will be re-visiting for more bargain hunting, afternoon tea and BETTER pottery decorating! haha!

Lush Haul Feb'16


Lush Haul
Fresh Handmade, Cruelty Free Cosmetics



Who doesn't love LUSH? Since discovering it in university I've been converted.
Any occasion their products are on my wishlist, any time I'm just "popping" into Cardiff (aka Going to cardiff JUST for lush) I am compelled to visit. So a post-christmas and pre-birthday treat to myself, heres what I got!!


Unicorn Horn -bubble bar. Amazing!
Fizz banger - melts into a sea of bright blue
Dragons egg, slow melting meaning more bubbles!



I got these gorgeous shower gel and creams firstly;
  • Yummy Mummy is apparently the Mothers Day special they get every year. It smells great and is a beautiful shimmery purple! An ideal gift for mothers day or for yourself! I am a mother of two gorgeous chihuahuas so thats OK right? It's a cream so more nourishing for the skin and you can use it on your hair for extra conditioning. 
  • Also, I got BEAUTIFUL a gold glimmering shower gel. It smells DIVINE and my skin was silky smooth straight away. It leaves pretty glitter on your skin /in the water. A must have - will definitely buy some more of this to go alongside my firm favourites rub, rub, rub and BIG hair!

THREE TOP TIPS!
  • If you use a sieve with your bubble bars you get twice as many bubbles!
  • Split your bubble bars (like unicorn horn) into 4 to get more use out of them.
  • Multi use your shower creams in your hair swell as on your body.

Mindfulness and Wellbeing


Mindfulness and Wellbeing
A modern motion


What is mindfulness?
I've recently practised some mindfulness in my own life over the last two years to de-stress and re-evaluate my life. This blog isn't going to be deep, it's a light read about ways you can help yourself get through the stress and pressure of modern life.

Your wellbeing.
Wellbeing is a state of being comfortable in your life, at peace with yourself, healthy and happy. Your happy place. 

I've been at low points where I was stuck in a negative cycle. I took time out to re-evaluate my life and make the positive changes I needed myself. Taking care of my wellbeing and being mindful helped me enormously!

My easy TIPS for mindfulness: 

  • Notice your breathing. Zone in yourself, control the breath as you breathe out, listen to the sound of your breathing. It brings an instant calm.
  • Eat slowly and appreciate what you're eating. Take the time to taste whats in your mouth. Appreciate it. Also, feed your body healthy foods. Look after yourself. I use juicing as a way to cleanse my body and feel mentally and physically better. 
  • Take time our from Social Media. It's the central focus of most of our lives now. I am the first to check in on instagram, Facebook and now twitter. I also blog weekly so I'm glued to the macbook. Light a candle, read a book, take a bath.
  • Travel, walk, visit new places. Fresh air and new scenery calm the senses. It's also educational and enriches your life.
  • Whilst it's natural to look for motivation and inspiration from others, don't measure your life against someone else's. What you see on other peoples social media is snippets of their highs and you cannot possibly know what they're going through from one picture. Focus on you, be grateful, and love. 
Hugs,
Laura x

GDL SS16



GENDERLESS CLOTHING RANGE SS16
SPRING / SUMMER COLLECTION


GENDERLESS FASHION SPRING SUMMER COLLECTION 2016 IS HERE!
Yep, Thats right. Summer is fast approaching and with lots of us on plans, diets, regimes to get summer-ready - It's the perfect time to make a GDL purchase! Our tops and vests can be gym or workout wear, casual wear or even night wear! Keep your eyes posted for the 5 ways to wear GDL blog coming soon.


Lets talk products, thought processes behind them...
The first top we (Lucy & Laura) created was the

 WORLD WIDE VIBES Vest.

This vest was created from an idea of summer vibes and the wanderlust notion!
We all dream of exotic far -lung places, tans, good times and positive vibes with the people we love when the weather breaks and this vest was a combination of all of these factors. We wanted a statement top that we imagined in Ibiza, Festivals, Beaches and Parties all around this world. 
We played around with words and one day Lucy just thought -- WORLD WIDE VIBES baby yeah!
The font is laid back and casual for a spring summer feel.


Pair with the GDL LOGO SNAPBACK for a sporty / casual look like model James or wear over a bikini/swimshorts, grab a pair of sunglasses and hit the poolside / beach. Going back to the core concept of our brand GENDER NEUTRAL clothing, this style suits both genders and is completely unisex (as is all our pieces).


SORRY NOT SORRY TEE

This T-shirt was originally created from Laura's love of the phrase itself. SORRY NOT SORRY. For those people who NEED NOT APOLOGISE for being themselves! Life is YOURS for the taking this summer -- you be WHO you want to be, you do WHAT makes you HAPPY and don't let anyone make you feel anything other than amazing. This t-shirt is the staple slogan t-shirt for any spring /summer wardrobe. Its longline for a varied look, fair-trade organic cotton (as all out clothes are) and can be worn with or without a roll sleeve. It's an easy spring / summer tee for urban and fresh look. 
If you don't like it, guess what? Sorry, NOT Sorry babes. 

The GDL EMBLEM vest

This piece is the beginning of the GDL emblem line and is an absolute must have for summer. We envision this vest on everyone! At the gym, working out, summer runs, marathons, in ibiza, Glastonbury,on the beach over a bikini or swim shorts!
Lucy and I cannot take credit for this as the design itself was originally created by our GDL SQUADDIE Jay Herbert. A keen gym goer and sports fanatic he clearly takes pride in his appearance. After SO many compliments of Jay in our AW15 range we were not going to dismiss his input! It's rapidly becoming a best seller and we look forward to our EXCITING sports photoshoot coming up with an incredible PT and Bikini Fitness Champion 2015 in her very own Empower Gym. (Watch this space)

GDL SNAP BACKS


Snapbacks are the ultimate street headwear! We absolutely love them and feel they had to be part of SS16. The GDL statement logo on the front is for those who want to represent a brand they are proud to support. (as well as looking effortlessly cool of course!) The black and white snap back is representative of our primary colours and goes with everything in your wardrobe. The burgundy is Lucy's favourite colour and had to be in the line somewhere. It's actually become a firm favourite of everyone who has commented and seen the collection.

Genderless Clothing, we believe is revolutionary. We are building an empire of EQUALITY in gender roles, supporting the LGBT community, supporting and empowering individuals who wants to stand up in the world and BE THEMSELVES. Don't confuse us with homing in on sexual orientation or transgender people, we are talking about EVERYONE. Whether you're straight, gay, white, black, male, female or gender fluid- GDL clothing want to embrace and style YOU and YOUR style. we want you to feel comfortable in your own skin, your own style and be in control of your wellbeing.

We cannot wait to see you all in your GDL clothes this summer, purchase your favourite items, snap yourself wearing them in your world wide adventures and upload them to social media or email them to us at contactgdlclothing@gmail.com to feature on our pages!
