A woman has saved thousands by committing to only buying second-hand clothes including bras for two years.
Becky Hughes, 24, works in marketing for a charity and says she has completely cut out fast fashion.
Since 2018, Becky, who lives in Wolverhampton, has only bought second-hand clothes, and saves thousands by sticking to charity shops and apps like Vinted.
Becky has bought a range of items, including a designer Valentino top for just £4, which would have cost over £500 if bought new.
She said: "I'm genuinely so much happier now that I've stopped buying fast fashion.
"Before, I used to spend £20 a week on a new outfit to go out.
"Now, it's maybe £10 a month, if that.

"As someone who's quite young, and very into fashion, it feels really good to be able to ignore trends and focus on what I like."
Becky, like many others, draws the line at buying underwear second-hand, but has purchased a few bras from Vinted.
She said: "My attitude has always been: I can always just give it a wash, and then I'm happy to wear it.
"That doesn't bother me at all, but I do understand why some people don't want to do that.
"My attitude towards clothes and how I treat the clothes I have has completely changed."
Becky has also made some money selling on her own worn clothes, and estimates she's made £2,000 from this alone.
She said: "I'd wear something, and then wouldn't want to wear it again because I'd posted a picture on Instagram.
"Now when I'm shopping I think really carefully about when I will wear something, does it go with the clothes I already own, things like that.
"I'm much slower about the whole process in general, I usually favourite a few items and then come back and review them a day or two later."
Since quitting fast fashion, Becky has saved £840 a year by sticking to second-hand clothes.
Becky added: "I hate the idea of stuff ending up in landfill, that's why I like to sell stuff on.
"If you have something just sitting in your wardrobe, not being worn, it's so easy to post it as for sale.
"Then, there's someone out there who will actually wear it and enjoy it, and you get some money from it, so it's a win-win situation."
