![Have you ever thought about ‘Cost Per Wears’? This month’s 真实成本系列, is looking at things a bit differently. Instead of the usual cost to make the garment, we are going to think more on the consumer side and how we can make higher prices seem more accessible in our minds ✔️

For many people, seeing anything over $100 seems ridiculous because we have become accustomed to fast fashion pricing. We think, ‘well, we can get that cheaper somewhere else’. Unfortunately, we don’t tend to think years down the road, and where the value of our money leads us. Sure, we can find a denim jacket for less than $50 at Target, but is it going to wear as well year after year, or are we even thinking of the implications of the planet and the people before the product even reached our hands? 👐🏽

I think budgeting ‘cost per wears’ is similar to budgeting that morning coffee or those glasses of wine at happy hour. It enables us to look at the bigger picture, and really see where our money is going. It makes a well-made, ethical garment more worth it, and once we can put a value to each time you wear it, it makes more sense to purchase it 💵

We broke down the Cost Per Wears for the @able Merly Denim Jacket on the blog so check it out! I have an amazing 30% off discount code in there, too 💚 p.s. I want to make a point to say I understand over $100 is out of budget for many & I fully support shopping secondhand. My 真实成本系列 is really here to show the impact of purchasing [new] clothing for those who typically spend a lot on their closet at fast fashion stores.
