A Mindful Wardrobe Refresh

Want to be “up to date” with your wardrobe choices? Fashion forwardness understands that the textile industry is incredibly polluting; having your finger on the fashion pulse, then, is about consciously choosing not to participate in trends.

And yet we somehow must dress ourselves. While fast fashion is quite literally made to fall apart, wearing what we wore decades ago isn’t a good look. So what on earth is a sustainable minimalist to do?

On today’s show: How to mindfully refresh your wardrobe with tips straight from experts.
