So I bet you're wondering... Why would a retail fashion site have helpful links that have to do with, uh... mental health?

As a trained mental health professional, mental health issues are actually near to my heart. Fashion, and body image issues greatly play part of mental health issues and as a business, we are not shying away from that. So below we've listed some helpful links that will hopefully serve as a resource to you and your loved ones.
