I'm happy to say that both my cotton skirts are now out of the <5 wears club, and I wore the lace skirt to a play this evening. Progress!
Fashiontern, buying something new is almost always going to be less environmentally friendly than using what you have. You just have to balance that against your personal needs and desires. And I agree with KnittingGene that you're definitely not too old for Vans.
KnittingGene, taking and editing photos is part of my job, so I'm able to tweak the ones I take at home pretty well but, honestly, I pull most of my images off the manufacturer or store websites. It doesn't need to be pretty to be functional, though. Not at all! Like you, I find the data motivating. I can create 5 outfits with an new item in one night, and then feel like I've worn it a million times and exhausted my creativity with it, so it helps me to clearly see the actuality of it.
LisaP, I totally thought that when I first read it too, but if you wear a top every single week, it still takes more than seven months to get to thirty wears. For me, shoes and bags rack up wears pretty quickly, as do jeans and toppers that I don't need to wash after every use. Those things also tend to last way more than the 30 minimum.
Bijou, I'm glad not to have early access to NAS, as it gives me a chance to pause and think on these new additions!
