I already own fast fashion/I can only afford to buy fast fashion, now what?
>Sustain what you buy-sewing, washing, and an attitude that cares about the garment
>Fast fashion can break or wear out easily, you can upcycle the fabric
cut out prints for other projects
use fabric for patches
use fabric to repair other clothes
cut off sleeves/collars/make into crop top
t-shirt bags (an option- but inconvenient to use from personal experience)
other non-clothing crafts
>If you won’t use the clothing item and want to give it away, ask people you know before donating to a thrift store. Thrift stores are already overrun with fast fashion as it is, try not to give them more. But if the only other option is throwing it away, it’s fine to donate it.
>Don't buy excess to what you need. yes you can keep up with trends and accessories but hauls or multiple of an item with the same purpose isn't necessary (ex. more t-shirts than what you can cycle regularly)
>Reduce future fast fashion purchases
If possible consider alternatives such as thrifting, rummage sale shopping, and diy.
Thrift stores and rummage sales support local economics! Your money is going to your neighbors instead of a company.
Rummage sales are preferable to places such as depop, becasue it involves local neighbors who want to get rid of clothes (that will possibly be thrown out otherwise) They can be much cheaper for much higher quality.
>There’s a difference between not being able to afford any other clothes, and buying hauls of fast fashion to wear for a short period of time only to donate immediately or throw away. Influencers who make hundreds of dollars worth of hauls aren’t the type of people who can say “i can’t afford anything else”. hauls aren’t sustainable.
>Don’t feel guilty if you truly can’t afford anything else, but please consider your options and sustain what you already own before buying more.

I'm so tired... but I must doodle Rita with short hair before I sleep~~
Everyone's reactions:
Kaguragi: full approval (but will 100% tease them and try to ask for why the sudden image change)
Jeramie: surprised but finds it cute (think his reaction to their scream in 19 in terms of reaction shift). Will also try to ask for writing purposes 😂
Yanma: trying not to stare as he tries to figure out what happened and if the Supreme Justice is really the type to cut their hair much shorter than routine trims since he only saw them with that same medium-long cut.
Gira: surprised at first, probably the first to comment on it and compliment them. (Maybe mention it suits their whole face since he seems to be the only one who ever saw it even if it was for niramekko)
Himeno: speechless, imagining every possible outfit she would have her servants pick up for Rita to try on as well as what hairstyles she would try on them with their new hair. Will probably know why the cut happened.
Morfonia: babygirl just relishing in the new change and hoping she can take photos of the two of them pretending to be twins with opposite aesthetics now that they have matching lengths.

Where do u get yr clothes from :D
I like second hand the best! Whether it’s online or physical thrifting, my fav things r always second hand.. plus prices are much better. I also loveeee hand me downs they r the bestest cos then they have memories too. I like Amazon, AliExpress n Etsy for accessories or things like stockings and socks.

my wildest jyn thought of the last week is that the woman who managed to smuggle eyeliner and a necklace into the prison death camp AND commit to the Bit all the way through her terror long weekend? This chick might be the most fashion committed make up perfectionist the galaxy has ever seen and we wouldn’t know given that she literally dies wearing the clothing of an imperial prison camp

Decorated some old shorts I never wear with some bleach and a stamp I made out of an eraser. I really like how they turned out and i will probably wear this a lot more now.
