The ladies gather with all the clothes, shoes, and accessories that they found in the back of their closet and don't wear anymore and we lay it all out and swap! Everyone gets to go through their girlfriends clothes and pick what they want to take home. Because one woman's trash is another woman's treasure.
At the end of the day we bag up all the items that didn't find a new home and they are donated to multiple homeless shelters in the area. It's a really fabulous event because its fun and a great excuse to get the ladies together, and in the end we are all doing a good deed.
What I wore to the swap this year:
I chose an outfit that is something I would wear thrifting. I wore a white tank top under a tunic with leggings and flip flops. This way if I wanted to try on a dress or sweater I could slip off my tunic and try it on over my tank top and I could easily try on skirts over my leggings.
[Leggings and tunic- Forever 21, Sandals- Old Navy]
