Being completely sustainable with fashion seems like a daunting task? Here’s the good news: you can start small and still make a difference! Each fast fashion piece you don’t buy or each piece you donate instead of throwing away can go a long way to save the environment. Here are some easy yet small ways you can have a fresh and sustainable fresh start in 2022.
Skip One Of Your Shopping Sprees
How often do you shop? Be it once a month or twice a month, try skipping at least one of your shopping trips. Setting a goal for the number of times you shop in a year can make your choices more thoughtful and avoid all the unnecessary buying you might be doing. The less you buy, the less clothes you discard, which end up in landfills.
Don’t Buy Wardrobe Clones
Love a style of jeans? You don’t need it in every shade of blue that seems almost identical! Try to stick to one piece in any style you love, since you already have it. This can help a lot with cutting down impulse fast fashion buys.
Save The Laundry Load
Cherish your clothes and take great care of them! This is perhaps the simplest thing to do of all. Make sure you wash and maintain your clothes carefully so as to make them last longer. The longer your clothes last, the less you have to discard, and the less you’ll have to buy. What’s the best part? It costs almost nothing to do this!
