Do you have a stash of clothes or accessories that you’ve sadly outgrown but have only worn a handful of times? Since my tastes tend to evolve pretty quickly, I usually have the what was I thinking moments when going through my closet, coming to the conclusion that I will just never wear some things again.
A fabulous alternative to selling or donating (both of which I’ve previously done) your unwanted clothing is holding a fashion swap party with your friends. Last weekend, Mel and I gathered our unwanted, hardly worn gear and headed to our first swap party at the wonderful home of Courtney from LA Vintage Exchange, where we had fun picking up some new threads while managing to free up space in our closets.
Kristen and Kristen, the dynamic duo from VainGlorious (pictured above), covered all the tips you need to know to throw your very own swap party.
The fabulous Courtney from LA Vintage Exchange hosted the swap event at her home.
I brought 10 items of clothing, and in turn, scored 10 great pieces to refresh my wardrobe. A fun way to get your fashionable friends together, I definitely see hosting a swap party of my own in the near future.
Wishing you a fabulous weekend!

That’s such a smart idea. A bunch of fashionable people getting together swapping equally fashionable clothes.
I took a huge bag of clothes to a resale shop here and only got $25. It was so disappointing.
Did you change your hair color? It looks a little darker! Maybe you have mood hair like me that changes dramatically depending on the lighting.
Hey Beth! Yes, you should def. throw a swap party.. so fun.
I didn’t change my hair color but now that you mentioned it, my hair color is actually blue-black (with some ash mixed in). It probably looks darker because when the light hits it, a very faint blue tint should appear.
xo!
Love that top photo of you. So stylish and sophisticated!
Have a great weekend, Becs!!
This is such a great idea, and looks like so much fun! And I am in love with your shirt here, it is too cool!
You look so chic! And lucky you! I can’t wait to see how you wear your new pieces!
Great post.. I think I will start selling my clothes over the summer

oh boy. i wish i was there! i love being surrounded by clothes…
Becs! You and your sister are the just the cutest! I would die to go to a swap party with ya’ll!
wow such an awesome idea, you look so gorgeous there and all the clothes on the rack is just amazing!
My friends & I did this same thing a couple of months ago! I came out with brilliant items too! It’s so funny the things people just don’t want any more & you think, How could you ever get rid of that?! OH well, mine now! Score! I love this. I just went through my closet lats night to get rid of the old & bring in some new summer clothes.
You look amazing Becs, as always too!
Those lips do you so much justice, especially with your newly darkened hair. So hot!
This sounds/looks like a lot of fun. I wanna see all the new things you got (10 items is a LOT!).
