FASHION EXCHANGE AT STAFFS UNI - STOKE!!!!!As i thought my dreams of setting up the first clothing swap shop in Stoke-On-Trent would become real.. alas somebody had got there first!
However, i am not bitter, just concerned of how it shall be run and if it will be effective.
And with everyone stretching the pounds, there's no need to sacrifice your style.
The event will take place on the 26th February at the Leek Road Venue, Stoke-On-Trent. People can bring their unwanted items to the old student union, behind Squeeze Box on College Road, from Monday 23rd to Thursday 26th of Feb.You need to bring clean and wearable items, which will be exchanged for tokens which you can swap for clothes.
Style couldn't be cheaper as the new eco-friendly way to shop has never been more popular. Women all over the country are swapping clothes in the hope to find a new second hand outfit.
We each spend on average around £650 on clothes a year, and 900,000 tonnes ends up in landfill. Throwing away clothes adds to our carbon footprint, the equivalent to running a small diesel car.
There is NO NEED TO BUY BRAND NEW CLOTHES every fort-night;when you can create a great look from recycling old clothes, or wearing vintage.
You can ORGANISE YOUR OWN CLOTHES SWAP PARTY, and GET YOUR FRIENDS FASHION SAVVY!!!!!!!
