Sharing is Caring

What to do if you get bored of your clothes and can't be bothered to put them on Ebay? Why, host a clothes swap of course! Set a time, put it on Facebook, invite your most stylish friends and prepare to swap away.

I charged each of these lovely ladies for a charitable donation as well. Making something 'for charity' somehow makes one feel worthier through all of the materialism... that aside, we made some marvellous swaps and everyone went away with something new they loved and without the things they didn't anymore. My list for a top swap?

-Wine, lots of wine
-Cakes, lots of cakes
-A rail that can hold a lot of clothing (preferably not one from Argos)
-Lots of clothes hangers
-A large open space to plonk all of your glorious clobber. We mainly used my bed as the point of focus
-Nice underwear. Christina did well with her nude American Apparel leotard
-Music. We listened to Marina and the Diamonds
-A gorgeous little doggy like Elly's Betty to play with
-Bin bags to take all the remaining clothes to the charity shop

Ooh Christina has found something good


Beautiful!



Jen tells Betty to find her something to match the new blouse



Looking good





A new dress for Christina - a bugle-beaded beauty!






I wear Elly's gorge linen dress perfect for summer with its Burberry-esque belt







Christina likes my Oasis lace number, worn over her American Apparel bodysuit








Betty, concentrate!









All of the (bad) food groups were represented and consumed!






















Betty and Hand 2 are introduced. They take an instant dislike to each other












A hand obsession gets scary
