Task 2
You found the following post on the internet forum Take the Challenge:
Emma U.K.
Have you heard about the 100-day challenge devised by the US brand Wool&? They produce
simple, sustainably sourced merino wool dresses called Rowena, Ellie and other common
names. The basic idea is that women who wear the same dress for 100 days and document it
with daily pictures get a voucher for a new one.
I got the idea from my friend Eby in Oregon, who is on day 58 with her grey Fiona dress (I only
saw photos of her wearing it on Instagram). She had decided to take part in the challenge
because she completely agreed with the brand’s mission statement – “live simply, consume
carefully, do good” – and encouraged me to sign up too.
I quite like the idea of living a simpler life in general; the pandemic showed us that it was
possible to survive without a lot of things we had thought of as essential. You also have to be
creative to be able to do more with less, so it could even be fun. (Or, as guys manage perfectly
with a pair of jeans and a T-shirt for ever and ever, no special challenge there, haha?)
Anyway, I’m more for it than not but can’t make up my mind; I’d appreciate your opinion. Do
you think I should give it a try? Would you? Or your girlfriend?
