LET’S TALK SUSTAINABLE FASHION!!! One of my goals this year was to stop supporting fast fashion. As much fun as it is to get something trendy and cheap, it has huge implications on the environment. The fashion industry is one of the largest polluters in the world. Textile treatment and dying make up 20% of industrial water pollution and 90% of wastewater in developing countries are dumped into rivers without treatment. So in an effort to do my part, I’ve decided to start spending my money on more sustainable brands like @christydawn. Christy Dawn clothes are made from deadstock fabric which means it was leftover scraps from another design house. So instead of spending my money on 10 cheap items at Forever 21 and places like that, I buy one bomb as piece of clothing that doesn’t have as much impact on the environment. I’m also realizing that I don’t need to own a million articles of clothing. In fact I’m trying to pare down my life. Advertising is all around us telling us we always need more when actually, we don’t. So maybe think about supporting more sustainable companies when you’re out shopping and feel good in knowing that your helping the environment and the planet as a whole ❤️
I’d love a taste…of the cooking, I mean. heh
