For this reason I am temporarily converting my Etsy shop over to serve as a means to collect donations to support the efforts [...]

If you are into Mayans or Judgement Day there may not be much point in planning out your next project, but as for me; I’ve got a lot of work to do. I am extremely happy to have survived the holidays.

From now through New Year’s Eve you will be expected to don your best duds and doll yourself up to spend time with friends, family, coworkers and acquaintances.

I love to watch it, read about it and obsess over it. Unfortunately I can’t afford any of it, so I try to make my own eccentric glamor work with what I have.

From what I’ve found by looking through the various photos on the website is that the goal is to radically change the clothing industry to address the ecological impact and the sustainability of fashion in the future.
