However there's ways to cherish items through photos, pieces of fabric, keepsake boxes, etc. Also seeing other people find love for things you don't love anymore or loved a lot is a truly valuable feeling. Upcycling is great, kudos to you! Mastering the art of letting go is truly an art form.

We can re-sell, donate, give to a friend, challenge ourselves to style items differently, or learn and realize that what we bought doesn't support our style or closet. I also suggest not shopping when you're bored or when you have an event (unless you really need something). I appreciate your kind comments!Chanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05366941181462440787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8645768407443301120.post-74971215466455927482020-02-11T19:59:41.836-08:002020-02-11T19:59:41.836-08:00I've heard of Marie Kondo's method, but ne...I've heard of Marie Kondo's method, but never really looked into it.

However I love peaking into second hand shops looking for unique pieces that couldn't be found anywhere else and no one else has. I've also switched to up cycling and making of my own clothes from whatever I already have, the only thing I still need to master is letting go of everything I pretty much know I won't wear in any near future :)<br /><br /><a href="http://dstar-story.blogspot.com/2020/02/im-going-to-sofia-and-i-dont-know-when.html" rel="nofollow">LackaDaisy</a> Lackadaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09964221225320097227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8645768407443301120.post-69015420993429922452020-02-09T12:09:07.746-08:002020-02-09T12:09:07.746-08:00Thanks!Thanks!Chanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05366941181462440787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8645768407443301120.post-5122999565871766962020-02-09T12:08:50.243-08:002020-02-09T12:08:50.243-08:00Thanks for reading, Naya!

The impa...Thanks for the thoughtful comment, Sonia. The impact of Instagram fashion and this liketoknowit era is terrifying. I am totally with you quality over quantity will keep your wardrobe timeless. I also stumble into those conversations with people too and they are so disheartening. I'm trying to be less intense (which is hard because I'm so passionate about this) and persuade them to try one thing like washing their clothes less or organizing their closet so they see how much stuff they have and the impact of those 20 shirts. I'm with you though. The cost of those 20 shirts is not worth it for me, ever. I definitely felt the denial memo until I really watched documentaries and realized the hidden cost. Yet for some people that won't do it. I think we just have to approach this conversation constantly and change the narrative that less is indeed more. Thanks again for all the support! We need to get the word out.Chanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05366941181462440787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8645768407443301120.post-25236425685560583412020-02-09T11:53:00.131-08:002020-02-09T11:53:00.131-08:00That's a great change.

Similarly to yourself, after reading Marie Kondo I have decluttered at least six giant garbage bags (the biggest ones) full of my old clothes. I am grown now, I know exactly what I like/don't like, which helps when it comes to buying new clothes. You are aware of environmental factors as well, Planet doesn't need more trash than it already has, so you might as well be cautious of what and who you support. I'd rather invest in a timeless piece now, something durable, than keep on repurchasing small things over and over again (thus creating even more waste). Great topic xx<br /><br />Naya<br />www.nayatilly.com Naya Tillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14466496583513126153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8645768407443301120.post-58970232062519800842020-02-06T17:28:47.764-08:002020-02-06T17:28:47.764-08:00Also a proud outfit repeater.

It's no secret the influence people have when promoting certain pieces and causing hysteria over stuff that is almost always fast-fashion based. It is crazy how much damage the fashion industry is causing the environment. Crazy and scary. I've definitely been more conscious of what I buy, choosing quality over quantity. I get a lot of flack from some people who sadly don't really care about the fast fashion issues. And it is really disheartening. Yes you can buy about 20 t-shirts for the same price as what I paid for one (with a brand committed to reducing their own carbon footprint) but the price of those 20 shirts is far too high for me to sleep at night. I think a bigger part of this problem is the ease of denial plus the memo just isn't getting out there enough to people. It seems like only a few people are privy to this knowledge and it's not getting spread out enough. I love your article, am going to share this.<br /><br />Sxx<br /><a href="http://bit.ly/12nrdfq" rel="nofollow">daringcoco.com</a>sonia // daring cocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01917824316715854859noreply@blogger.com
