Wow, that book really impacted me!

I just finished reading "Over-Dressed: The shockingly high cost of cheap fashion" by Elizabeth Cline and I went and pulled 2 of my tops, the shorts and dress from the donate pile.  I can wear the tops as is.  The shorts can be taken in.  The dress can be turned into a skirt that I think I will like.  I know how to sew and I need to wear what I have purchased.  I liked it once so I can find what that like was or redo it to fit better and get on with using what I have.

      It was interesting and explained why when I do go clothes shopping I come home so frustrated with the poor quality and choices. Who knew "fast fashion" was the driving force in stores?
