So. My #SpendingPending / Buy Nothing challenge came to an end as of yesterday ✨ After three months

So. My #SpendingPending / Buy Nothing challenge came to an end as of yesterday ✨

After three months of not buying any clothing, plants, and home decor, I am really grateful for the lessons learned here. Lessons like:

you don’t need a new outfit for every occasion
the fashion industry produces SO much waste, and we should reduce consumption accordingly
limitations lead to creativity - explore the versatility of your wardrobe by trying things on backwards, layering new items together, or styling garments in new ways
unlearn ‘impulse buying’ by waiting several days or weeks to purchase new items

And now for the million dollar question: Sabs, are you gonna big anything now that your challenge is over? I’d like to think that I wouldn’t, but I’d be lying. I bought something yesterday after a few *months* of mulling it over. Stay tuned for upcoming fit pics

How did your #SpendingPending challenge go? Are you still going? What lessons have you learned? Lmk in the comments
