Recently I was walking across the office when I felt something scratching across my back. I took the jacket I was wearing off and noticed it was a tag. You see, I purchased the coat I was wearing more than two years ago. And I had only just now put it on in 2023. Great sales always sound like a fab idea but then it’s like, are they? There’s only so much one person can wear in their lifetime. Over consumption is a very real problem plaguing our wallets, mind, planet and closets. Our society has an obsession with hauls (many from fast fashion retailers with questionable business practices). While we are purchasing more these days…most of it isn’t lasting. I could go on. And on. Listen, there’s so much to comment on regarding over consumption, fast fashion, and sustainable (slow) fashion. Let’s not forget the mental health angle, either. When you are plagued by things, you just feel mentally cloudy…or at least I do. This weekend I challenge you to donate and sell at least three items. See how good that feels.
