Invest Wisely

Buying clothes will always have an impact on our environment. However, if we invest in clothes we know we really like and which fit well this impact can be reduced dramatically.  I have always tried to invest in my wardrobe this way.  I take a lot of time thinking to myself will still like it in a few weeks and beyond.  I rarely make an impulse buy and if I do I end up returning it.  I have also always thought it worth investing in more expensive items not only because I am drawn to the more beautiful fabrics but because they are better made and therefore will last much longer.  I avoid what is now called fast fashion. It is more important than ever to consider the impact on the environment our clothes have.  Tonnes end up in land fill.  This is such a waste.  Whilst a bespoke piece may cost more it will fit better and last longer.  A really good quality item, which is well made should last for many years and it is a worthwhile exercise considering the cost per wear of an item before you purchase it.  JGG Bespoke Jackets whether a standard size or fully bespoke are created in Britain from fabric sourced from Linton Tweed, the jackets have beautiful lining and a weighted hem to keep the jacket in shape when wearing. You can choose your own colours and style of jacket which means you will enjoy wearing it for many years because you have been able to choose exactly what you like.  When you consider this against a quick fix buy which you might have preferred in a different colour or fabric you can perhaps see the benefit of choosing your clothes in this way. Definitely worth a cost per wear calculation when thinking of your next purchase!  Invest wisely.
