Are you a fan of fast fashion?

Kelly Dennett Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Many of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.

But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great … View more
Many of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.

But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great for the environment.

While some of us are pledging to only buy second hand or to invest in statement pieces - more expensive items that will last a long time- not all of us have that luxury.

We're wanting to speak to someone who isn't giving up their fast fashion any time soon, whether it's for economic or style reasons, personal choice or indifference to the environment. Maybe you're a student who likes the choice chain store fashion brings, or perhaps you're a parent whose children are growing too fast to risk splashing out on expensive clothing.

If this sounds like you, please email kelly.dennett@stuff.co.nz.

Staying connected through volunteering protects mental health

MenzShed Wellington trustee Steve Jardine says he has seen first-hand what happens when retired people get involved in volunteer projects

"He's seen older, retired men doing nothing but 'waiting for the grim reaper to come to their door'. But he's also seen what happens when they meet join up and meet 'sheddies' - men that are already members.
Menzshed Wellington members forge social connections at the shed - something that will likely lead to better mental health. 'One of the other sheddies will take them under their wing, show them around.' And before you know it, they'd be perking up."
