Sightline Series
What's New is Old
Sightline staffer Anna Fahey started 2012 with a bold resolution: to buy nothing new for a whole year. Stuff hogs space and takes lots of energy to make, so this is about lightening her environmental load, but more importantly: it’s saving her cold, hard cash. Follow her progress, trials, and tribulations (especially with a toddler in tow).
