November Swap - Don't Shop party!

An excellent opportunity to get some new winter clothes, and unload some out-of-season stuff - the next Swap - Don't Shop event is happening next month. Details are below:

Clothing Swap Party

Saturday, November 17

12pm-4pm

Beaver Hall Gallery

29 McCaul St. 

In addition the usual on-site alterations (by donation), delicious snacks and - of course - scads of great clothes, we have a fun new addition to the November swap. Professional image consultant Danielle D'Amato of Danielle D'Amato Image Consulting will be on-hand to provide advice on how to style your new swap finds, and incorporate them into your existing wardrobe. 

As always, all clothing, shoes, and other accessories (with the exception of socks & undies) that are clean and in good condition are welcome.

Admission (with at least 5 swap items): $8

If you have nothing to swap but still want to upgrade your wardrobe, just show up with an extra $5, and we'll give you a bag to fill.

At the end of the day, all of the clothing that is left will be donated to local charities.

Check out the Facebook event page for updates.
