[TEMPLATE] Closet Inventory and Budget Worksheet

January 21, 2019
Share

Do you set a budget for fashion purchases?

According to my Affordable Ethical Fashion Survey, 17% of my audience currently has a budget.

Those of you who do have a budget: great! (Though you may want to keep scrolling for a closet inventory template.)

For the other 83%? Don’t worry—I’ve got you covered.

As part of my year focus on affordable and accessible ethical fashion, I’ve created a template to help you track your spending on fashion items, what’s currently in your closet, and what you may like to invest in later.

Introducing… the Closet Inventory and Budget Template! Here’s what’s included:

  1. Closet Inventory Chart
  2. Wishlist Chart
  3. Expenses Workbook
  4. Budget Workbook
  5. Cost Per Wear Estimate Calculator

Now what are you waiting for? Get planning! 🙂

.
But industrialization and mass production has also resulted in a disconnect between designer and maker. 
.
For truly ethical production, there must be an equal knowledge exchange between makers & designers in the design process, especially when artisans are using traditional techniques & generations-old crafts. 
.
But what does collaborative design look like in practice? And how does this type of collaboration support more sustainable and ethical production?
.
I’m interviewed Tatiana of @zuahaza to discuss these questions and much more! Tune in and let us know your thoughts. 💗

⁠⁠
Top tip: Buying used furniture is a great way to reduce your exposure since the highest concentration of VOCs are off-gassed with newly manufactured furniture just out of the factory. (If you are looking for new furniture that’s safe though, stay tuned for a list of non-toxic furniture brands coming soon!)⁠⁠ 💚

Unsurprisingly, the home goods & furniture industry has much of the same problems as fashion: labor exploitation, unsustainable production, and massive amounts of waste.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But, there are ways to style our homes with intention, in a way that goes beyond aesthetics and considers the impact on people, planet, and our health.⁠⁠

This question — and the question of "will increasing wages increase clothing prices?" — came up during last week's IG Live with Ayesha of @remakeourworld.⁠⁠

These are both really common questions, so I wanted to dedicate an entire post to address them.⁠⁠

👗 Why garment worker representation is so crucial to creating a more ethical and sustainable fashion industry⁠⁠
⁠⁠
👚 What centering garment workers would look like in practice⁠⁠
⁠⁠
👗 Whether or not brand-led initiatives and industry commitments have really led to any tangible improvements in the lives of garment workers (and why that's the case)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
👚 What sorts of reforms will be necessary to truly improve the industry⁠⁠

⁠⁠
➡️ And now, it’s time to take action demand better from fashion brands, support garment worker rights, and ensure workers get the direct relief that is needed now.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🌍 WAYS TO SUPPORT⁠ 🌍⁠⁠
⁠⁠
1. Donate to the Garment Worker Relief Fund (link in bio)⁠. Although brands have more than enough money to provide this relief, they have failed to do so, and so @remakeourworld has created a GoFundMe for individuals to provide support.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
2. Sign the @PayUpFashion Petition (payupfashion.com)⁠. Learn more about this movement in the previous post on @consciousstyle!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
3. Support the #GarmentWorkerProtectionAct / #SB62 to improve working conditions for garment workers in Los Angeles (garmentworkeract.org)⁠⁠
