Anyway, if you don't know, Oxfam started this movement to help push the battle against fast fashion. For the entire month of September you only buy second hand clothing and donate your pre loved items for someone else to find! Fast fashion causes a ridiculous amount of waste as well as creates awful working conditions due to the low cost of the products. We can all do our part to stop this happening and every little helps.
So, to help you on your journey against fast fashion... Here's 5 accounts to follow on instagram!
