Sold almost everything and have never felt more comfortable in my style. Don't by the hype, but if you do buy what you like/need/sometimes want.

    As a woman, I can absolutely relate with this. When I was younger, I’d buy clothes as often as 2-3 times a month, and they’d be styles that didn’t fit with my aesthetic. I just saw that they looked good on someone else and figured maybe it would work for me too. But once I had it, I’d realize that I didn’t have anything in my existing wardrobe to go with the new acquisitions, so I had to buy stuff to match them. After a while, they’d sit in my closet or in a pile that will eventually go to my mom’s donation box 😅 Now I purchase clothes probably thrice a year, and I have to put them on heavy rotation because I genuinely enjoy them.

    some things that have gotten me better at buying less clothes 1. don't buy anything after midnight/on less than 8 hours of sleep 2. if possible, wait 3 days thinking about how this new piece would work in your closet and if u really want it. sometimes the want to buy something just goes away on its own. 3. if looking for a specific kind of piece, try to thrift first 4. don't buy faux or real fur new, always thrift it if furs what u want 5. record the outfits ur proud of! sometimes i get into a rotation of outfits, and i feel like i need to buy something to make things feel fresh again. i look at some old fit pics to get inspired and even rework 6. i also just blacklist various brands that are fast fashion/are racist/are generally problematic. its just easy let me know if you have any tips or advice you follow on being more fashion sustainable!

    Loving the work you're doing, man. Just wanna chime in and do my own where I can. On the ozone bit, if anyone is interested in looking more into the sustainability of their fashion I highly recommend starting by looking into the scopes approach (i.e. scope 1-3 emissions). It's a great way to get a broad understanding of the impact on emissions that anything along a supply chain makes from supplier to consumer. Although the ozone layer is healing since we banned a lot of the bad sh*t that we used to spray into the air, there's a f*ck ton more issues we have to address in order to achieve a sustainable and just basic ethical civilization. After all what the f*ck does sustainable even mean? Albeit the footprint of a single person is marginal and honestly won't do sh*t when it comes to global climate change and material pollution (unless you're actively using a private jet but we're gonna eat the rich anyways so it's ok), having the ability to cast a ripple effect is what can really drive change and make us broke boys feel better about ourselves. As it has to do w fashion--material waste, pollution, and human rights violations are all massive things to consider and that's just the tip of the iceberg. A KZread comment isn't going to cover everything but at the very least I want to push you in the direction of doing your own research, even if it is just a quick Google search about scope emissions.

    Atmospheric chemist here: the ozone "hole" was created by CFCs (used in fridges/freezers/pressurized aerosol cans) reacting with UV light in the upper atmosphere where the ozone layer is. This caused an issue because ozone was depleted through these reactions and over time the concentration of ozone in the layer dropped. The ozone "hole" is a region with little ozone concentration. Thankfully since the banning of most CFCs, it is recovering and by 2050 should be back to normal :)

Its either i get sick of them just from seeing them too much in my closet and then get over them very quck or the quality gets really bad after 2-3 times of wear of after 2 wash cycles. Ghe thing with thrift shops is that it helps me not only to be creative by looking at some clothes that I wouldnt normally look at or see on social media differently and create unique original images in my head, but also it helps me currate and have a very essential and self serving wardrobe, because I think thouroughly about every piece before buying it since it comes only in one size and has to be useful (and dont have the skills or money to alter them )

    Maybe it will be useful to someone. I made a board on Pinterest, where I collected for six months only those outfits that I like and that I would copy 100% - from the headdress to shoes and accessories. It helped me discover what I liked and what I didn't like. I realized that my style is classic things from different styles (romantic, business, cowboy, motorcycle, techwear, warcore, 90s, 00s, 70s, sports, Milan and Paris, Chanel and Dior, folk outfit etc). I also discovered that 80% of my ideal wardrobe is black, white and denim. And the fact that I don't like skinny and loose sleeves at all. I am very happy with the result, because during these six months, I did not get tired of the things I collected and I still like these clothes. It is important to observe 3 things: 1. This outfit will definitely look good on your figure. Study your proportions and ruthlessly remove all outfits that spoil your figure. 2. Choose only where the color, shape, material is 100% acceptable for you. You would copy 100% - from the headdress to shoes and accessories. No BUTs are allowed. 3. Be realistic about whether you will have room to wear each outfit. Choose outfits for work, walks around the city, romantic dates, and glamorous celebrations. Of course, if you go to nature or mountains, or for sports, you need a more practical style. As for me, I know for a fact that if I'm going purely for shopping, I won't wear anything other than a comfortable sports outfit.

    Ok so I honestly don’t know if the ozone layer bit was a semi-serious bit or not. But just in case it stopped because the propellants used in things like hairspray, air fresheners, WD40 ect were the things that were causing the ozone layer hole and they were phased out quickly and other propellants were used to compress and dispense those kind products. Butt also yes stop buying crap to throw away. Be me buy mid level basics and wear them for the next 10-15 years the current fleece jacket that I have from Eddie Bauer I got it on sale in 2011 I wear it all the time in the winter it’s warm as sh*t and had held up well and it’s a black jacket it doesn’t go out of style cuz no one cares enough to examine your generic black jacket. It just exists and serves its purpose of keeping me from freezing my a$$ off all winter long.

    Student's law number one regarding things that aren't essential to life (aka fashion, especially fast fashion): "If you can't afford it, you don't actually need it." Srsly, my mom taught me this ever since I was small, "you have lived so well without this item until now, so really think about whether or not you REALLY need it or not.", and this applies to A LOT of things. The thing about the ozone layer has just been substituted by some other problem in the world, such as unsold clothes being dumped in south american deserts and therefore destroying the local environment. I did undergo this transformation basically a few years ago, but now I really AM sitting in that mindset "I don't care how cheap it is, if I don't strictly need it, then I wont buy it, and IF i actually DO need a specific item, I shall make sure I find something locally made, even if it's more expensive. It shall keep for longer and I coul actually give it to someone in an actually WEARABLE condition, and it won't fall apart after three run-ins with the washing mashine. The only clothes I am buying currently are either: literally FOR WORK (aka stuff that is durable and can get dirty) or high quality, locally made stuff that will literally OUTLAST me. I most likely won't have children (unless I adopt at some point), but I will have a legacy regardless. A legacy of style.

I have an extremely fancy sewing machine that I never use, and I've decided that if I see something I really want to add to my wardrobe [like a particular type of top/skirt/dress/cut of trousers], I'm going to look for a similar pattern online and make the garment myself instead.
