Is there anything more restorative and therapeutic than time with your best friend? I do not think so. 1.5 years away from you was the worst - missing you so much already 🤍🤍👯‍♀️

Day 8: #NoNewClothes
Now that we’re finally able to travel again, I have been so tempted to shop for new clothes for our upcoming trips🙈
This weekend I unsubscribed from all retail emails and unfollowed a lot of major retail brands on social media. Out of sight out of mind!💃

As a reminder - I took a 90 day pledge of No New Clothes to help reduce my carbon footprint & fight fast fashion 🤍🤍

Day 5: #NoNewClothes I have been searching for way

Day 5: #NoNewClothes
I have been searching for ways to live more sustainably. Within the design and construction industry - we turn to green building initiatives like the Living Building Challenge @living_future (spearheaded worldwide within our firm by my friend and material expert @mahltbee) and WELL.
At home - in addition to recycling, reusable containers and bags, water and energy conservation, I have also been paying attention to the clothes I buy, the materials of which they are made (again thanks to @mahltbee), and the factories where they are manufactured to help reduce my carbon footprint and decrease the funding of unethical manufacturing facilities and practices.
My friend @bethaniecreates shared the #NoNewClothes challenge with her audience and I immediately hopped on board. @remakeourworld is a female-run non-profit organization made of Millennials and Gen-Z. They aim to end fast-fashion and it’s harmful practices on those who work within the industry and the environment.
“According to the EPA, 11.2 million tons of textiles ended up in landfills in 2017. In Bangladesh and other manufacturing hubs around the globe, millions of people lost their lifeline jobs as big box brands canceled orders as the pandemic broke out.”

This challenge is a 90 day challenge, but I’m hoping this can help me reimagine what I already own moving forward and continue to decrease my consumption and my impact on the environment.
I encourage y’all to learn about sustainable initiatives we can all practice to reduce our carbon footprint and the funding of fast-fashion practices🤍🤍

Dress - $6 dress I bought 2 years ago for my bachelorette party that I totally forgot I owned. (Even though this dress is definitely considered fast-fashion, continued reuse of these items can be considered a sustainable practice in itself!) SHOP YOUR CLOSET🤍
Sweater - Bought last year and I wear it almost every week
Shoes - bought 3 years ago from local, Female-owned boutique @pipeandrow. These @solsanashoes will never leave my closet.

So I want to know - what are some sustainable practices you have already implemented in your daily life?
