Entertaining the idea of a total reset, a back-to-basics movement of sorts, an indubitable return to looking at people during a conversation as opposed to a smartphone screen and remembering to say thank you and please. A congruent and fully conscientious decision-making process in retail purchases, use of technology, mode of travel, choice of employment, food consumption and everything in between. Individual activism for the collective good, a nuanced rendering of the meaning of connectivity.

Self-knowledge. The more we know ourselves, the better we are for ourselves and those around us. Empathy for others comeS naturally when we first practice it with ourselves. Self-knowledge allied to empathy makes us more interesting people with content. And then, in the era of sharing everything, we only share if we have more to talk about.
It would be mortifying to the feelings of many ladies, could they be made to understand how little the heart of a man is affected by what is costly or new in their attire... Woman is fine for her own satisfaction alone. No man will admire her the more, no woman will like her the better for it. Neatness and fashion are enough for the former, and a something of shabbiness or impropriety will be most endearing to the latter.Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Self knowledge and awareness. It’s the root of everything – from style to empathy to being a good friend and being good to yourself. Without it you’re also a shitty conversationalist and that’s the worst.
Clothes aren't going to change the world, the women who wear them will.
