"Too many people think the grass is greener on the other side. The grass is greener where you water it!" I love this quote, it's so true in so many ways.⁠

When we invest time nurturing relationships, work, picking up litter in our neighborhoods, that's when things start to improve!!!⁠

It's a sad state of affairs when people feel they have to apologize for appearing in the same outfit more than once on Instagram.
But this is what fast fashion has done to us. It has given us "disposable fashion," clothes so cheap that people can afford to buy new ones constantly.
In the process, our society has developed a perverse sense of shame regarding repeat fashion appearances, which has devastating environmental consequences.
Sadly, even if a person does fall in love with their new fast-fashion clothing item, it's unlikely they'd be able to keep it. These pieces are so shoddily made that they tend to fall apart after a few washes.
When you stop to consider the resources that go into creating each of these pieces of clothing, it's highly distressing. Just because they cost the consumer relatively little, they still come with a big footprint - the true cost of which is absorbed somewhere else along the line, usually by the poverty-stricken workers and developing nations with minimal waste-management infrastructure where the clothes originate.
Is anyone else giving up fast fashion in the New Year and embracing being a proud outfit repeater?
