Nothing makes me feel more smug than wearing my favourite 12-year-old boots and still receiving compliments. I remember saving up for them, drying them of after getting out from the rain and storing them in the original boot bag they came in. They would finish off every outfit and make me feel amazing. These were my lucky boots.
Sadly, over the years I’ve noticed that fast fashion has become the accepted norm. I’m saddened by how classic items are now so easily thrown aside and replaced in efforts to keep up with new trends. But thankfully, with the rise in awareness of the effects of climate change, eco-conscious fashion seems to be the newest trend.
