Wear It, Love it, Share it.

We have all bought something that we thought looked good in the shop but never ended up wearing. It's estimated that around 30% of the average wardrobe has not been worn in for at least a year. In a recent survey conducted by M&S, a fifth of respondents even admitted to throwing out an item after just a single wear!

Of the clothes that are thrown away, 43% could have been re-worn if given to a charity shop or passed on through a charity shop or by organising your own swishing event. If we regularly reuse and recycle our clothing, and enjoy second hand shops as part of our wardrobes, we can greatly reduce the amount of energy, water and materials needed for creating new clothes. And that means we feel less guilty about the clothes we don't wear anymore.... A real win-win! Fabulous for everyone...
