Fashion sustainability
I am sure many of us have closets , drawers overflowing with clothes That no longer fit or are outdated . So do we do buy more ?.
Read this report on how we can change our shopping habits and our wardrobe needs only 74 pieces . That we should only buy five new pieces in the year. I haven’t counted the number of pieces in my closet . But I can say I have really cut back on my purchases. Also, some of my items are more then ten years old . Well made and classic styles. So can wear them years.
For myself I have limited my purchases , not for financial reasons but thinking how many things do I really need? I Love clothes ! But I realized I don’t need as much.
I just recently bought a new dress and a blazer. The blazer is cream color which I didn’t have and linen ;so was ideal for spring summer wear. It can be worn with many other pieces, over jeans , denim dress, skirts slacks, multiple ways.
So was my only new purchase of the year . Thinking about substanibility
and the environment is one very important reason to limit one’s purchasing.
So is your closet overflowing, have you made more purchases? Cut back on your purchases, spent less?
