I’m probably stating the obvious here, but how many times have you bought something new that is similar to something you already own?
Shopping your own wardrobe will save you £££s, and the planet. Take some time to sort through your clothes. Categorise them into shirts, t-shirts, trousers, jeans, skirts, dresses and so on. Then, sort by colour. How many white shirts do you own? Yes, you’ll find you have several of the same item. Spend time researching the trends for the forthcoming season (or attend one of our informative events!), and use Pinterest to pin outfits that you love. Now, go back to your wardrobe and try to recreate these. No doubt you will already have most elements that you can build upon, and any gaps, try second-hand shopping first of all. Did you know that Oxfam have an online shop?

Clare always experimented with fabric and wool. With 6 siblings she was left to play with the leftovers of any recently made outfit and spent endless hours dressing and making dolls. From such humble beginnings began her lifelong fascination for colour, fabric and texture. Now she dresses 'live dollies'! Archives
