The past few years shopping behavior has changed massively. Fast fashion is no longer the primary choice for many people when they want to refresh their wardrobe and buy in to the latest trends.
Instead consumers are becoming more conscious of their buying habits to make them more sustainable and considered to avoid waste and do better for the environment.
Todays episode is in honour of second hand september, which is a campaign run my @oxfamgb to encourage people to buy only second hand items for 30 days in the month of September.
Today’s guest @ellensinwonderland is a fashion youtuber and instagrammer, ex fashion brand merchandiser and she also spends a lot of time spreading awareness around the ups and downs of chronic illness.
Over the past couple of years Ellen has made a conscious effort to change her shopping behaviours from fast to slow fashion, thrifting much of her wardrobe from second hand websites and charity shops.

- Take inventory of what you already have so you know what you need.
Ellens favourite places to shop are:
