Sustainable fashion and a sustainable lifestyle in general, can sometimes feel like a looong road trip that doesn’t really end. It’s easy to get caught up in feeling like you’ll never be able to buy sustainable products to live ‘truly’ sustainably and that whatever you already own isn’t good enough.
