This might be just the time to dive in + take the fairdare! Take it for 3 months or 6...or go for it + make a year long commitment to consider farmers, garment workers + the environment before purchasing clothing all year long.
We become activists exercising our compassion by wearing what we have, mending + repairing, exploring dressing with less, making some of our own clothing, thrifting, + purchasing fairly made pieces. Together we hope to influence the existing systems...encouraging swaps, supporting cobblers, tailors + local second hand shops, letting brands know what we want, + voting with our dollars. Rather than seeing our commitments as deprivation, we view them as power + joy.

Perfection or the fear of not being able to buy all fair pieces shouldn't stop us from trying. Each choice is a new opportunity for success! The choices we make about what to wear affect the environment + garment workers + farmers, whether we think about it or not. We can do better...one choice at a time.
I wear clothes.
I like fashion.
I love people.
You too?
Take the fairdare!
Love,
Jane
