The idea for Swap Soiree was born out of my love for fashion and also for the love of our environment.  

 

Did You Know:

• The fashion industry is the second largest polluting industry in the world. 

• The average American throws away about 81 pounds of clothing each year. 

• Polyester fiber is now one of the most commonly used fibers in our clothing and takes almost 200 years to decompose.

• Only 10% of clothes that people donate get used by thrift stores, the rest goes to the landfill.

​​

After learning these facts and seeing the long term environmental impact, I decided that I wanted to make a difference.  Instead of throwing away clothing because you no longer wear it, or feel like it's out of style, you can participate in a Swap Soiree and reduce your carbon footprint! 

​

What Swap Soiree is All About:

• Fashion - I want to shift the thinking that second hand shopping can't be considered a boutique or upscale experience.  I want to help YOU find the perfect outfit, that might already be hiding in your closet!

• Fun - I want all of our hosts and guests to have a great time.  This is where you get to relax, unwind and catch up with a close group of friends and I take care of all the details so you don't have to stress!

• Food - I mean, who doesn't love some good food, right?

• Flora and Fauna - (I had to keep the "F" theme going) I care about the plants, animals and humans of this planet.  When I learned how much waste was coming from fast fashion and how drastically it has impacted our environment, I knew I had to do something about it.  I want to share this knowledge with you because the changes are so simple!  Let's join together and make sustainable fashion look good!

I am looking forward to helping you and your friends create a fun and unique event where you can refresh your wardrobe and participate in something that can help the planet!​
