By embracing second-hand fashion, uncovering life hacks that prioritised under-consumption, and finding the joy in what she already had, Anna realised that she loved living with less. After starting her hugely popular Instagram account @not.needing.new to document her journey in 2019, and being featured in money-saving articles for The Guardian, The Times and more, Anna found her place amongst the slow-fashion community, and now hopes to inspire others to have a sense of happiness and contentment as they willingly, or otherwise, are being faced with less.
