The Hidden Cost of Your Closet: Who Really Pays for Your Purchases?
Description
In this episode of The Intentional Wardrobe Movement with Brandy and Sam, we are discussing Social responsibility - Where does Personal Responsibility End for a Purchased Product?
Why is the role of the consumer currently set up to be devoid of social responsibility after we buy an item?
Should the buyer bear the responsibility of fixing an item before we discard it?
And, Why don’t we consider the cost of mending before letting go as part of our social responsibility?
We also discuss how to change this mindset.
Stay tuned for the weekly challenge at the end of the episode!
Cheers to a Conscious Closet! Xx, Brandy & Sam

The Intentional Wardrobe Movement -TIWM stands for...
Take back your style - quiet outside noise like trends, celebrity news and visual marketing to create your own vibe.
Intentionally Shop - Set goals monthly. Wait 3 days before purchasing. One goes out if one comes in.
Wear it, Work it or wave goodbye - Shop your closet and be a proud outfit repeater. Mend when signs of wear are visible. Alter to adjust for fluctuations in weight, age or lifestyle. Upcycle or recirculate when ready to let go.
Matter - change your relationship with the fashion industry and make your impact.
