Come meet other Working Moms, bond, and get some "New to You" Clothes!
Let's make this one as GREAT as the last one!
We'll have a meet and greet and then get to swapping! We found at the last one that introducing ourselves, our jobs, and our fashion needs allowed folks to help each other pick out appropriate "hip art teacher," "lawyer," etc.
DETAILS:
--Please bring no more than 20 of your most swappable work items. (If you wouldn’t give it to your finicky sister-in-law, don’t bring it to the swap.)
---- I don’t think we’ll be able to have an official “changing area” so dress appropriately. Thin leggings and a tank top make it easy to try stuff on. Loose skirts make it easy to try on slacks.
---- Please let this be an adult only event. It makes for a much nicer experience.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does it work?
-Bring items that you'd like to swap.
-Find other people's treasures which are organized by size.
-Try to take no more than what you brought, take what you need, and share the wealth.
-It’s always fun for everyone to find a “diamond in the rough” so if you find more than one of something great, leave it for the next person.
Reminder: Please wash all clothing and heat dry before wearing. Also PRESORT clothes by size to make it easy for us to put things out. Double-check for stains, rips and holes.
