Think Fashion Week is all about shopping and trying out the latest trends? Well, we teamed up with The Swapaholics for one fabulous NYFW event to prove that fashionable finds never go out of style! Over a hundred of our favorite bloggers joined us at our Friday swap party in Chelsea to meet ModCloth founder, Susan Gregg Koger, and swap for some new wardrobe staples!
In between browsing and mingling, we asked these fabulous fashionistas to share some of their best thrifting tips.
Do you ever swap? What are some of your best thrifting tips?
We have swaps all the time in DC. Some are put on by organizations and have an admission fee. The best ones, though, are just friends getting together to share. The more people you can invite, the better – sizes are more likely to match up, and items are more likely to find a taker! Between thrifting and swapping, I hardly ever have to pay for new clothes.
This was such a cute video! The neck to waist size trick was super neat – I wonder if that’s true of many necks/waists!
So many cute ladies of the web in this video!!! I love hearing other people’s thrift tips :)
Had so much fun at the swap! Thanks for having me!
I had a great time at this swap. Got a great dress!
