A sustainable lifestyle is more talked about than acted upon. While this route is not easy, starting small can be a good start. As we talk about slow fashion, the process lies in the name itself.
Moving away from reckless purchasing requires a lot of time, patience and thoughtfulness.
There is no denial that fast fashion is accessible, affordable and stylish. And choosing a sustainable fabric is not often pocket-friendly. So take these mini-steps and embrace the change slowly.
It’s always good to start with decluttering. This is a therapeutic process for many of us as it clears our mind and also creates a space in the home and wardrobe.
Give your style some thought and understand what you like, something that can be out of trend or a vintage style. Embrace your style and research which brand offers budget-friendly clothing.
Donate or exchange clothes or any item with your friends or someone who needs it.
Change the way you shop and make more ethical choices from eco-friendly brands. While we understand some pieces are expensive, you also need to understand the wearability of slow fashion pieces.
For special moments, opt to rent rather than shop because when it comes to extravagant pieces, you may tire of it after a point. So better to rent, click a million pictures and be guilt-free when you’re done with it.
Vintage style can never go wrong, so go for polka, florals, plaids, etc.
