Jungmaven Discount / Referral Code
I absolutely love Jungmaven tees & tanks. The drape is exceptional. The colors fit my neutral wardrobe perfectly. The breathability is perfect for Texas summers. I've purchased them before through local retailers but just placed my first order directly through the jungmaven site and got a referral code for $30 discount off your first purchase, thought I would share!

Horrible quality of clothes by these corporations
I went to the mall recently & it’s been a while since I’ve bought myself something … and why are WE allowing these stores to up the prices excessively yet the quality is TRASH. I went to h n m and they are hardly giving you fabric it’s like insance …all polyester and poorly made … I went for some undies at Victoria secrets and HOW in the world are we allowing the underwear’s to completely be polyester even in the main part … this is INSANE. Who is buying this crap … and why are WE not doing anything besides buying that crap …who Cares about the 5/35 when the material isn’t cotton in the main part ..I love clothes and just buy what I need but like it’s so disappointing to see people into the high prices with bad quality clothes … like what is going on ?

John Lewis Rental Occasion wear renting: a warning!
I've recently got into renting occasion wear for formal events as I think that its a great sustainable fashion alternative to purchasing fast fashion dresses or buy an expensive outfit which might only be worn a few times a year. While I think renting these items is great for the environment and want to encourage everyone to give it a try, I just want to put out a warning for (a usually reputable UK brand) John Lewis Rental.
I've rented from By Rotation prior and had a great experience, but I thought I would give JL a try since the specific dress I wanted was slightly cheaper per day to hire. It turns out, they have an unseen, internal sizing system which is not shown when ordering the garments. This means you can order an outfit in the UK sizing system provided by JL, match this up to the UK sizing system of the original designer and your own measurements, and they will send you a completely different size.
When I emailed them to tell them they had sent the wrong size, only then did they let me know about the 'internal sizing system that has been standardised across all designers' and that 'they had sent the appropriate size'. When I pushed back and notified them that the size they had sent did not correspond with the UK size I had ordered on their website and cross-referenced on the designer's website, I was simply met with 'we sent you the correct size as per our internal system.'
This was a short-term rental for a significant milestone event, and there was no way I could change the size of the outfit before it.
While JL provided me the 'Fit guarantee refund', I was still short ~£20 and left feeling upset, frustrated and deflated! Therefore, I just wanted to warn anyone considering using their service and to literally use any other rental company.

I got banned from a second hand shopping app and my relationship with clothes changed
Sorry a bit of story time!
A few weeks ago, I got banned from a famous second hand shopping app (they accused me of reselling fake shoes which were not faked but AI said so!). Anyway, at first I felt truly awful as if something really bad happened to me. I was moody for a couple of days and thinking of al the bargains I was missing on…
Yes, I had addictive behaviour towards the app. As if not getting a good deal on a random T-shirt was terrible.
Then, I decided to donate the clothes that were on the site for sale. No point keeping them and while I make “loose” a bit of cash they were just clutter.
But more interestingly, I also kept a few items that I was originally selling. My lack of access to cheap items meant I now wanted to keep some items and see if really they were that bad.
It is slowly changing my mindset, I still love a bargain but want to take things slower. I don’t have a huge wardrobe (probably capsule wardrobe number wise) but yet I have more enough clothes. I still want to get good things as I am not perfect and enjoys shopping but my dopamine levels seem to stabilise. No more rush of adrenaline seeing a good deal and getting it… to resell it 1 month later.
Overconsumption and second hand truly can be hand in hand, I just never realised it. So thank you Vinted for the ban 🤣

Looking for Indian consumers' opinions on sustainable fashion
Hi everyone!
When you shop for clothes, what matters more—style, comfort, price, quality, sustainability, or something else?
I'm conducting a quick survey to understand how Indian consumers think about sustainable fashion, preferences, and willingness to pay.
It takes under 3 minutes to complete, and your responses will help provide valuable insights into what shoppers actually want from fashion brands today.

I'd really appreciate your participation. Thank you! 🌱
