Stop fast fashion and protect our forests.
Does this affect me? Check yourself right now. What are you wearing? Some blue jeans and a white crop top or pink t-shirt with summer shorts? Or just joggers or trackies all day, every day. I'm just asking about your style here, please go ahead and express yourself as you want, in something that you're comfortable in. I mean I’ve thrown away all my clothes that can’t be used as PJs.

Automatic Sports Watches Retain Their Charm
What’s making today’s gadget freaks turn towards the old mechanical magic? Let’s take a break from the quartz brigade. That includes analog quartz, digital quartz and smart watches. Instead, let’s discuss the conundrum posed to many of us; especially, the modern-era gadget freaks to whom, the fundamental sense of brand recognition is different from embracing an admittedly excellent quality. The unimaginative and conservative analog designs also appealed to them less than the smart watches; they easily overlooked the reassuring consistency in mechanical designs all these day, despite their reverence reaching unprecedented levels.

Differences Between Western Fashion And Eastern Fashion
Clothing has always been gender-oriented, it has, from the beginning of time been different for men and women. This practice continues as we transcend into the age of modern fashion. Modern fashion is all about breaking the norms and doing things that are deemed out of the ordinary and making those unexpected things ordinary. We have seen these things grow on us over time. A perfect example of this can be seen with jewelry which was mainly focused on women but with time we have seen jewelry and piercings make its way to men. Nowadays you can find men wearing ear piercings, chains, and pendants. These things were not common in prior years, in fact, these things were known for their feminine qualities but with time we adjusted and now no one would bat an eye twice if you were wearing a chain or an ear-piercing.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world, it was easier than ever to buy a £1 bikini form a high street store, or order clothes online that had been crafted using cheap, man-made fibre and exploitive labour. However, many major fast-fashion brands rely on worldwide supply chains and therefore the global pandemic, paired with changing attitudes towards fast-fashion, are likely to spell disaster for the industry.
