So glad to know someone the same height as me!!! I can definitely relate to some of your petite-shopping concerns 🙂Thanks for these tips, Haley! Keep them coming!
I think an important tip to shopping more sustainably is to plan to spend more money and better quality ( from more sustainable brands if possible) for items that you know you wear most often ( usually more ‘basic’ items). Then they can actually last year after year. If a person buys an item that is worn very frequently, it usually doesn’t stand up if it is fast fashion.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts ☺️ I agree that’s a great route to take, but I actually have a lot of older FF pieces that I’ve been wearing for 4+ years and they’re still in great condition. Of course not all FF is made the same, but I find that with good clothing care they can last a pretty long time 🙌🏽
I use a lot of these. I had to replace a winter coat at the beginning of the season. I went to the thrift store and found a very high quality wool coat that is normally $400 for $17. Currently doing a no buy month and discovering why I tend to want to shop.
Yes! My wardrobe is 80% thrifted. But I agree with the fast fashion pieces, as long as you know you’re gonna use it well and would take care of it. I see nothing wrong with it. Most of my basics are from a fast fashion brand.
👚 A sustainable, minimalist wardrobe is a game-changer! Less clutter, more style, and a positive impact on the environment. ♻🌿 #MinimalistStyle #SustainableFashion
