Fast fashion alternatives. Take care of your stuff, regardless of its cost.
Thursday, January 24, 2019
Happy New year, everyone! Payday was yesterday, so I did a little shopping today. The Dollar Tree on Marhsall road in Abbotsford had a fair selection of t-shirts! Not a lot of size or colour choices, either. But still a great deal $1.25 plus tax = $1.40
They were made in Guatemala, some were polyester. But the 2 I bought are both 100% cotton.
I know a lot of the fashionistas on YouTube say we should buy quality & not "fast fashion". But I am skeptical that the quality issues are all about cost. I went through my dresser recently & well over 50% of my clothing is more than 10 years old. The jeans in this photo are a recent purchase, the first pair of jeans that I have bought since I moved to Abbotsford in 2005, that cost more than $10.
