It's always a treat to be able to share my journey towards adopting a more sustainable way of consuming fashion!
I used to be a HUGE shopping addict, spending 3-4 hours at a time before I sleep just browsing online for the best deals. It took a toll on my rest, it sapped my energy & distracted me from focusing on other more meaningful ways of being. I gave our local Chinese TV news channel (Channel 8) a glimpse into one of the things I did to cut out my unhealthy shopping habit- clothes swapping! It's a MUCH better way of circulating good clean clothes within the community to divert it from going to landfill. And since I also volunteer with the clothes swap organisation, I see first-hand the sheer amount of impulse bought clothes that are still perfectly usable, donated for the swap.
Participating in clothes swaps makes me think thrice about picking up anything new to add to my wardrobe, and trains my brain to reconsider how I consume fashion. ♻️
