You know the thrifting is good when you need a basket 🛒
FAST FACTS:
👖Americans throw away a totally of 14 million tons of textiles a year.
👔 It takes about 2,720 liters of water to produce one cotton shirt-equivalent to what an average person drinks over 3 years!
👟Approximately 300 million people who produce cotton are still living in poverty.
I’m still in awe when learning more about the fashion industry because it’s a crazy beast of a problem. It intersects into waste, environmental issues, human rights, animals rights and probably a million other things I haven’t learned yet. It all boils down to waaaaay too much consumption. Because of all this racket I have been turning into a thrifting Queen 👑 I have vowed to buy mostly used, avoid animal leather or wool, and if I do buy new, find a company I want to support. If you are privileged enough to, vote with your dollar 💸
This look of pure second hand shopping joy could be yours! 🥰
