In 2022 I shared 4 posts about some secondhand clothing I bought. In each post I came to the same conclusion: I am doing good, but not good enough. I want to buy less. From this point on I want to challenge myself more. From 2023 onwards, I will write about the secondhand clothing I…
Category: Sustainable and Fair Fashion
In this category I try to share how to buy clothes that don’t harm the planet or the people making it. Shortly said, sustainable and fair fashion. I also try to inform you about the opposite product, fast fashion. And what’s so harmful about fast fashion. If you know what it is, you know how to avoid fast fashion. And how to choose for sustainable and fair fashion instead. This way we can all look fashionable, but still have a happy, healthy environment.
Secondhand Clothing Inspiration
It’s been only a month since I shared a blogpost with the secondhand clothing I have bought the past months/year. I am sharing one again today because I’m behind a lot. But after this, I’m back on track. My goal is to share these posts once a year. I am not there yet, but maybe…
Secondhand Clothing Inspiration
It’s been over 4 months that I last wrote about my secondhand clothing purchases. Ideally, I would write about once or twice a year about all the secondhand clothing items I bought in a certain year. However, I am not there yet. I am still building my ideal capsule wardobe and I’m still making mistakes…
5 Tips to Minimize Your Wardrobe
In September 2021 I moved to a student flat, where I have a closet which is smaller than what I was used to. It has about 10 hangers and 6 shelves. There I put everything, from my shoes to my summer and winter clothing. All the clothes I own. That in itself is a tip…
Secondhand Clothing Inspiration
It’s been only 3 months since I last wrote a secondhand clothing inspiration post. In October I shared 6 new secondhand items I had bought. This feels very strange for me now that I am writing this since I aim to buy very little. I guess it’s time to count all my clothing items soon,…
6 Secondhand Clothing Items I Bought
It’s been a while since I shared my last secondhand clothing finds. 8 months to be precise. I wish I didn’t buy any clothing since then. I wish my wardrobe was perfect and that I don’t want anything else. Reality check, this is not the case (yet!). The past 8 months I did buy clothing…
Why I Avoid Wearing Clothing with Brands Showing
I’ve made the switch to secondhand clothing a long time ago. This means that the habit of buying (almost) no new clothing is quite easy for me. I know where to look and what to look for when it comes to secondhand clothing. The next step was not buying any plastic clothes anymore and that’s…
The relationship between fast fashion and feminism
I think all people are secretly feminists. Feminists want equal rights for all genders. I mean, who doesn’t want equal rights for everybody? Some people think of something dirty when they hear the word feminist. I don’t understand this. And also, calling yourself a feminist is just the very beginning. It’s the first step and…
Finding ethical fashion: Good on You
As you might know by now, I avoid buying new clothes. It works 99% of the time, but there are is that 1% when it doesn’t work out. There are some things that need to be bought new. But if I do buy new, I buy ethical. If there is a sustainable and fair option,…
