I studied environmental science in college and realized that while I was so passionate about combating climate change, my daily decisions were in direct opposition to that. I was still using single-use plastic, buying fast fashion, using toxic cleaning products, eating packaged\/processed food and meat, and was actually contributing to the systems I was deeply opposed to, so I decided to make a change. I stopped using plastic and ultimately started reducing my waste to align my day-to-day actions with my values for environmental sustainability. I created my blog, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trashisfortossers.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trash is for Tossers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, to document my journey of reducing my waste almost 10 years ago. I then started my company, Package Free. Our mission is to make the world less trashy, and we sell products that are replacements to single-use products or products that are packaged in plastic that you use in your everyday life.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How does sustainability impact your personal style?<\/span><\/i><\/h2>\n<p><b>Lauren: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I decided to decrease my plastic usage and personal waste, I made the decision to shop less, and if I was going to shop, only secondhand, only natural materials, and if I am going to buy new, that it must be natural materials from sustainable designers. Because of this, I make fewer impulse purchases, and I spend less money on clothing or make less frequent but more special purchases. I have also decreased the amounts of \u201crisks\u201d I take with my wardrobe and only really buy neutral colors and items that pass the \u201cI could wear this 3 days in a row, and no one would notice\u201d test. It\u2019s made getting dressed easier for sure!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/rebag.com\/thevault\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/IMG_1968-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Rebag &#038; Lauren Singer&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Lauren Singer&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; width=&#8221;750px&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; text_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Book||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.44px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;48px&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;56px&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_6_font=&#8221;MaisonNeue-Demi||||||||&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_6_letter_spacing=&#8221;1.5px&#8221; header_6_line_height=&#8221;23px&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||21px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can someone interested in fashion make their wardrobe more ethical?<\/span><\/i><\/h2>\n<p><b>Lauren: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The absolute best thing one can do is stop buying new clothing and work with what they already have. Can it be combined in different ways? Can it be tailored to look or feel different? Can you layer? Can you play with makeup instead of clothing, maybe get a haircut? I recently cut my hair short (and donated 12+ inches!), and it\u2019s amazing how my clothing looks so different with this new style. Things that used to feel more flowy and natural now feel a bit more edgy, so it\u2019s not always about the outfit! But if you are going to buy \u201cnew\u201d items, opt for secondhand and 100% natural materials always. It\u2019s also great to support new designers creating sustainable products (100% natural, biodegradable). Remember, Vegan Leather is typically PLASTIC. Don\u2019t buy it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are your favorite ethically made or secondhand pieces in your closet right now?<\/span><\/i><\/h2>\n<p><b>Lauren: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have so many, and honestly, my favorites shift depending on my body, my weight, my mood, the weather, if I have my period, what I\u2019m doing, etc.!
