Sort your wardrobe and help refugee women

Time for a spring clear out of your wardrobe, in a very good cause

– the 6th Annual Preloved Fashion Sale which will happen on 13 March 2010

 

With the long holiday weekend coming up and spring hopefully about to burst into our lives, it’s time to take an hour, or even hours, to dig deep into the jungle that is your wardrobe.

When you’ve finished you’ll have beautifully sorted rails and drawers and the satisfaction of knowing that your cast offs will be helping New Horizons for Women Trust, which provides second chance education awards for women, and supporting refugee women through Wellington’s ChangeMakers Refugee Forum.

So go on, get the whole lot out on the bed and play dress ups. Be brutal - analyse that apparel, sift those shirts, skirts and shirts, think through those threads, weed out that wedding clobber, let go those gowns and liberate those labels!

Four steps to sorting success :

A. I still love it and will wear it in the next twelve months - hang it up, fold it up, tidy it up and put it away.

 

B.It doesn’t still thrill or doesn’t still fit, but it’s still in good condition and someone else will love it – stash it in a bag for the Preloved Fashion Sale. 

 

C. Drop off your bags at one of our pick-up points or email me with your address and phone number and I will arrange to have your bags picked up from your home.

 

D. Congratulate yourself on a good job done and enjoy that oh so organised, uncluttered feeling.

 

Have fun!

 

Any queries, drop me an email or give me  a ring.
