Fashion Tips…
Adopt the 30 wears test - when your shopping and your eye catches something you love, before you pick it up think "would I wear this at least 30 times"
Donate your unwanted clothes to friends, family or local charity shops. You can even use reGain app which turns your unwanted clothes into discounts to get cash off your next Hidden Fashion purchase. It's an absolute no brainer! Intrested, see the reGain app here
Look after your clothes so they last longer. Invest in a mini sewing kit and replace buttons, fix small holes yourself. What a great skill to learn too! Not very handsy? No worries get yourself a good tailor to repair before replacing your items.
Avoid tumble dryer. The average household does almost 400 loads of laundry every year, consuming about 60,000 liters of water. Try to air dry your clothes outside instead if you're able to.
Re wear
There is nothing wrong with re styling old pieces to mix and match. Tbh this is were the best creations are made, so get mixing. Tip* when buying a new piece, think of 3 key components you can wear with it.
Invest in key statement pieces which you can wear all round season - like classic denim jeans, oversize blazers etc.
When it comes to your denim, wash it in side out to make them last much longer. We all know how hard it is to find that perfect fit, so treat them with care.
Shop from second hand and vintage stores - and let the hunt begin. You never know what hidden treasures you will find.
Easy ways to become more sustainable....
Switch it off
Less heating & more layers. Ever tired to first add a layer or 2 before switching on your heating. Try it you'll be surprised. Even switch off all standby appliances before you go sleep.
Recycle and reuse
We all buy plastic water bottles as it's a super easy option, but did you know one plastic bottle will break down into 10,000 microplastic pieces over time and is incredibly hard to clean up. Doing your weekly food shop? ditch the plastic bags at checkout and invest in a few god quality, recyclable shopping bags. You won't regret it.
Beauty - we love a bit of pampering but ever thought about where your products come from? Try swapping to reusable cotton pads, organic shampoos and soap bars. Opt for non-synthetic, natural and biodegradable ingredients when shopping for your latest beauty products.
