While we can't stop you from buying clothes, we can try to persuade you to make your wardrobe more sustainable. With a carbon footprint accounting for over 10% of the global greenhouse gas emissions, it's no secret that the fashion industry is destroying our environment.
Fast fashion marketing makes you feel ashamed for wearing the same thing twice - it’s time to ignore the propaganda and start making fashionable choices for the environment and our consciences with these nifty tips!

1. Invest in trans-seasonal clothes
Only buy items that you know are going to work for you all year round instead of wasting money on items you will only wear once.
4. Make sure your item GOTS sustainable materials.
Ditch leather and fur, instead opt for organic kinds of cotton, a good tip would be to look for the GOTS certification.
5. Quality, not quantity.
Most people wear 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time because buying more doesn't necessarily mean buying better. Instead of making impulsive choices, before buying an item, ask yourself if you will wear it more than 30 times - if the answer is no, then don't invest in it.
