I detest shopping for clothes in regular shops and I don’t like online shopping as more times than not the clothes don’t fit me … but on my occasional trips back to the UK I do enjoy a mooch round charity shops and most of my clothes are charity shop ones or gladly received cast offs from friends! That said I was in a sports shop recently getting kit for the boys when a hoodie just leapt out and said “buy me!”. It was FAR more than I usually spend, it’s got a well known label on it and I hate to admit is is 50% man-made fibres … so not your average buy for an eco-friendly person you might think. But then if I said the last time I bought any new clothes (not counting underwear) was over 16 months ago and I don’t actually have a hoodie now without a hole in it somewhere! As for my torn jeans – luckily the hole isn’t in my behind and the pigs don’t complain if my knee is poking through so they’ll be OK for a while longer yet!

Glad I was part of the inspiration behind a post for #GoingGreen and good luck getting that new pair of long lasting jeans.

I very rarely buy new clothes, except underwear, of course. I have favourite shops and now find it so much easier to choose in charity shops than everyday high street shops. Good luck. #GoingGreen
