I totally agree with the constraints = creativity idea. I accidentally found myself with only 6 tops for 1 month due to some packing mistakes & by the 2nd week I was excited to figure out new outfit combos & ways to accessorize. I’ve not committed to a no buy challenge but I don’t think I’ve bought anything in 6 months anyway. My body is still changing postpartum & I’m job hunting so we’ll see how my wardrobe works then.

Congrats on making it so far into your no-buy challenge, it’s inspiring. So much research shows that we become more creative when we have less resources. Loved the ready steady cook reference because I always tell my husband my best meals have been made when I am working with the last dredges from the fridge and pantry.

To bring it back to fashion, totally thinking about doing a no-buy year and it may come sooner rather than later.

Appreciate you sharing your experiences 🤍
