It's evident that we've all fallen into the habit of impulsive buying, especially when it comes to clothes, and Rachel D'cruz is helping us change that with her fashion series.
Consumer behavior has changed dramatically in recent years, with people purchasing things much quicker without putting much thought into it. We have ditched asking ourselves questions like, "Can I use this in more than one way?" or "Is this really worth the investment?" Today we tend to make purchases on impulse. We’ve become so accustomed to the consumer-driven culture around us that discarding items and moving on to the next attractive option feels almost natural. While this change in behavior might seem convenient and even exciting at times, it’s also concerning, as it prevents us from thinking critically about whether we actually need the product or considering how our choices affect both our personal lives and the environment.
While it takes a lot to control those impulses, we are also aware of the impact our buying habits have. It’s safe to say that many people out there want to change the way they consume. A small but meaningful way to start is by participating in trends like upcycling old things instead of constantly buying new ones. For most of us, clothes are the biggest temptation when it comes to impulsive buying, but instead of rushing to replace them, what if we gave our old clothes a fresh start by upcycling them? Of course, not everyone is an expert at this, and that's where content creator Rachel D'cruz comes in to help. Taking on the challenge of dealing with clothes that keep piling up, she started her series "Fix It with Me," where she fixes her old clothes and gives them a new life. Whether you’re ready to take on bigger upcycling projects or just need tips for fixing small issues like holes or stains, Rachel’s series will surely guide you through it. After all, our favorite clothes deserve more than just being thrown out at the first sign of wear!
