I loved the snark in that piece. I was never a fan of IT, especially for the prices.
I'm trying to get off the fast fashion train. I've found that, for my workwear, it's still the sane choice; while there is no goat at the new job, there is bleach. There is also the time factor: because I get so messy at work, I can't wear the same pieces over and over, I work several days in a row, I have no dryer so must line dry... so I stocked up on base layers at ON, got a couple of cardigans at the thrift shop (I literally work in a refrigerated room), and got all my pants from thrift or fast fashion stores. Because they will get ruined. I've already destroyed several garments and it's only been 6 or 8 weeks.
However, because of the closet edit, SYC, and no-buy I've signed on for, I seem to be reaching for the same garments time and again. It's helping me zero in on what I really and truly love, and as these items wear out, they will be replaced by high quality versions from ethical/sustainable lines. I believe that I should be the change I wish to see in the world; and it appears that enough people are feeling the same, that it's actually affecting the industry. Awesome!
