Hey everyone!!! Here are a few red flags I see from the fashion industry on the internet!!!
I will try my best to separate the memes into the consumer and company perspectives to shed light on the issues on both sides.
I hope you enjoy viewing these as much as I did making them!!
Always, always, ALWAYS check to see if there is a sustainability page or at least a product description when a brand claims to be sustainable. Large companies use this as a ploy to lure uninformed consumers into buying their products. Always do your own research into the company and what they are actually using.
Mega hauls 1)promote overconsumption and 2) devalue the time and effort it takes into producing garments. For those that don't know what a haul is they are pieces of content like a video or a post showcasing massive amounts of clothing bought to be worn a few times and then tossed when they are out of trend. Understand that buying what is accessible to you is not a crime, just don't fall into the "What is on-trend?" trap that big fast fashion brands like to trick their consumers with. There have been attempts to rebel against mega hauls with things like thrift hauls and anti hauls but their effectiveness can be debated.
This is it for my first wave of red flags! I hope you enjoyed them! Stay tuned for more! Please leave and a comment down below! And if you are new, please follow for more content on sustainable fashion and my brand, GeoBo!

Having a capsule is an essential tool I use when I am putting together my wardrobe!
Due to what was accessible at the time and not having a clear view of what my own personal style was, I felt like I could never truly express myself. I felt like I could never when at fashion no matter how much I bought or how much I was trying to blend in with trendy society. And no matter how much I bought. it could not stand the test of time due to its quality.
After much revaluation of myself, my style, and many amazing (and scary) documentaries on the impacts of fast fashion and overconsumption, I was able to see my situation for what it was and pivot to something that rebelled against the fast fashion industry and that catered (for the most part ) to my personal style.
Essentially, a capsule wardrobe is a limited collection of garments that can serve as a daily guide for creating outfits or as a compartmentalized group if garments that serve a specific purpose (ex. Work outfits, weekend getaways, dinner with friends, etc.). Capsules are versatile, make a statement, and also one of a kind!
