Shop Sustainably

The only clothing shopping I've done for the last six months has been thrift shopping and I can confidently say my style has never been so ME. I get so many compliments and I feel better knowing I saved money, found hidden gems, and that shopping second-hand is significantly reducing waste and carbon footprints.

affordable, ethical fashion (+tips): minimalism journey

shopping sustainably and ethically can come off as an expensive alternative. Though these brands tend to cost more than most commercial brands, having a mindful wardrobe doesn’t have to break the bank.

why is it expensive?

sustainable materials cost more: natural materials, generally grown on farms in a certified organic way, farmed in a way that pays workers fairly and ethically

tips to build a conscious wardrobe: 

shop second-hand (thrift shopping): not only is it affordable and sustainable, but it can be fun creating your own style and doing more with less // you’ re preventing items from ending up in landfills // look into local  and online “swapping/trading events” // shop at stores that sell ethical brands, but second-hand // shop less at malls 

have a minimalist or capsule wardrobe: not spending so much on every new “trendy”, fast-fashion pieces of clothing, allows you to save up and afford the more expensive brands and products that are sustainable //  with a small clothing budget, you’re allowed to be more mindful as to what you add to your wardrobe (even if it’s one piece) // new shopping habits: quality or quantity // due to the concept of “year-round-clothing” with minimalism, you’ll be able to buy pieces that actually last 

find a balance between conscious brands and second-hand clothing that works with your budget: this depends on your situation (age and location), budget/finances, needs, and lifestyle // the impact your wardrobe has, also is affected by how you care for your clothes // don’t always wash your clothes in hot water and dry in hot dryers, in order to not waste energy and allow your clothes to last longer/not replace items continuously 

research your brands: check their websites, google about them (reputation), and read their “about us”/”what they stand for”/ “their mission” // allows you to make a more mindful investment in your clothing // look for certifications (e.g. GOTS or FairTrade) // research by country, brand or production criteria (e.g. Eco Fashion World) // read about blogs and websites about sustainable fashion
