    In this video I go through 3 reasons why I decided to do a low buy year this year as well as 5 rules that I will try to follow. The Low buy challenge was inspired by 2 great CZcamsrs - @UseLess as well as @StyleApotheca. These ladies are incredible inspiring to me with regards to being sustainable with my consumption choices.
    I give you some facts along with my reasons for the low buy challenge, why I am not doing no buy challenge, and how I hope to become a more conscious consumer and a more ethical consumer through doing this low buy challenge.

    This video really resonates with me. Thank you for your honesty about comparing yourself to others. I definitely struggle with this and it is NO GOOD, it leads to so much discontent. I have found myself filling my life with things thinking it will bring happiness and it ultimately DOES NOT. In fact it is a vicious cycle of once it's obtained it's right on to the next thing...exhausting! A low buy year was one of my New Year's resolutions for this reason and many of the reasons you mentioned. Sadly, I didn't do as well in January as I would have liked, so this video/challenge is helping me to get back on track. Thank you!

      I'm glad you are re-inspired to continue :) Not comparing is tough....I'm trying not to do it but I cannot, so instead, it is good to focus on what makes you happy. For me, it is making these video that I think will keep me on track. Also running after a busy toddler will take care of the shopping habit!

    I loved hearing about your reasons for doing a low buy. I'm doing a no buy this year for similar reasons. I want to be more sustainable and get out of the habit of always searching for new things. Good luck to you!

      Velvet Report thank you! A no buy I think would be a failure for me just now - did you do a low a buy before?

      @@CoolSustainable No, I've never done a low buy but I have done failed no buys before. I started this no buy in November and so far it's going really well.

    Really love the way you express yourself and your valuable content... from going "no dye" on your hair to implementing #nobuy, #lowbuy etc
    Your level of being conscientious in many areas/topics is so refreshing and something much needed and valued in this day & age.
    I first saw you a few months back on a "going grey" video...at that time I was 14 wks no color, and now I'm at 7 months with no color! 💪🏽😎
    As for the #lowbuy #nobuy, I've been consciously buying pre-loved, second- hand clothing, shoes, jewelry, furniture, etc for many years.
    Honestly, most of my absolute favorite wardrobe pieces & eclectic furnishings are second-hand 🙌🏽 🔆
    Keep up the great work, beautiful...you're on to something good! 👌🏽💕🥰

      Wow, you have made my day! Such a thoughtful comment on here - I adore it! The whole purpose of this channel is to document my own journey, of course, but to also bring awareness to these issues to a wider audience. There is not single most important issue to our generation than the well-being of our planet. So, I hope that by talking about all these issues, others might alter their behaviours as well. And yes, my most worn pieces are all vintage/second hand! I love a piece with a story.
