Getting them for FREE! So Saturday night I had the most fun experience. I went to a clothing exchange. You bring your gently worn clothing pieces, jewelry, accessories, and shoes that either don't fit, you don't care for, or that you are just plain "over" and a bottle of wine. Add about 30-40 other women doing the same and when you put them all together, you have a nice combination of clothing (and wine
). The hostess provides a few little appetizers for everyone to enjoy. After you've put your clothing in the appropriate spot (dresses, tops, pants, workout gear, etc), you have a nice empty bag. Go peruse the items brought by all of the ladies, try on at will, and take what you want. Bottom line, new to you clothes for $0. I went with about 30 items and came home with about 15. It was great because I effectively downsized, but now I have some new treasures to wear. It was a ball. And all of the "leftovers" are taken to charity. Isn't that a wonderful idea? I'd vaguely remembered hearing about these kind of swaps, but had never attended one. I have to tell you, it was a fun evening with lots of laughter and nurturing women, not competitive, just a good time. I was thinking a home decor swap could be fun too. Hmmmm....must consider that. Reduce, reuse, recycle. LOVE IT!Until next time,
