If there's one thing good about this new generation, It's that information has been readily available in just a tap of button. With that being said, more people nowadays are more self conscious when it comes to their purchases and how it pays an impact to environmental causes. Environmental issues on the other hand, has a pivotal role on consumer's way of buying things. That being said, Fast fashion nowadays is more likely to be sought after because many celebrities or shall i say internet personalities embrace purchasing secondhand garments or thrifted garments that not only has a more fashionable and historical edge on it but moreso, is sustainable. It also helps cut down the garment industry's carbon footprint by not manufacturing new stuffs moreso recycling in a more fashionable manner. Have you tried thrifting? or doing fashion in an sustainable and environmental way? comment down below. :)

I agree with that! You don't really need a lot of stuffs and might as well buy clothes when it's necessary. Thanks for your reply!

I do not buy clothes the way I used to. We have Office uniforms so no need of buying office clothes. Most of my outfits are old but still look new I just mix and match.

Good thing you are wise now with your spending habits. And by the way, your workplace is so good on giving out uniforms some jobs don't do that. There's nothing wrong with old clothes and yeah all you gotta do is mix and match them as long as you are confidently beautiful wearing it. Thank you for responding! :)

@StyleWithSense we are given 120 Dollars a year for clothing. This is true for all government workers.

I am an avid thrift shopper! I know it helps the planet and such . . . but honestly I do it because I hate paying a lot of money for clothes and I hate cookie cutter fashion. But it's good to know that I can be fashionable inexpensively and donate it back when I done.

@StyleWithSense New fashion is just too expensive and boring as this is the way many others dress. With thrift shop clothing, I can get many outfits and never get bored . . . and it is much more interesting to put together fashion with pieces that hardly anyone has. And yes, sometimes the old stuff is better made than the new!

True! fast fashion just draw away the appreciation for garments that thrift clothes has! I mean, some of these clothes are worn from a different time and they do have more intricate and good hardware compared to new manufactured clothing. And i do agree to that it is cost effective. Thanks for your response. :)
