Swishing You A Merry Christmas
Swishing is the new shopping, namely because you can pick up amazing bargains to update your wardrobe absolutely free!
It’s a shopping revolution and a great way to swish through the economic downturn.
Swishing simply involves swapping clothing/jewellery/accessories at swishing parties organized with your friends. Now ladies, we all know have those items in our wardrobe that we haven’t worn in ages - but someone else will! Organize your own swishing party and display everything on hangers/ladders/shelves, etc. When selecting an item to swish, make sure it’s of an acceptable quality. The host of the party opens the event with a countdown and then swish away. At a recent swish party an original Jean Paul Gaultier Jacket was picked up as well as some other fashion treasures. Check out this swishing site for more info: http://www.swishing.org/
Whilst your waiting to organize or attend your first swishing party, visit Fashionspace.com.
It’s a fantastic fashion website where you can purchase new and used bargains,vintage and accessories. Most importantly it also has it’s own ’swapshop’, the same principle as swishing but online!
I love this amazing silver metallic coat from The Vintage Wardrobe. It’s only $15.70!!! And it’s only still there because it’s not my size!! Hurry up!
This is a beautiful gold plated waist belt from Crimson Fashion on Fashionspace.com, only $7.84,brand new.
I had to include this stunning 1950’s little black dress finished in lace and satin,$47.00. Find it at the aptly titled shop
Little Black Vintage Dress on Fashionspace!
Mixing old and new is usually a winner when it comes to wearing vintage. Jeans are always a good core fashion item to work around. Take a look at these ‘Havana 2′, 7 For All Mankind jeans from Designs By Stephene on Smarter.com.

Hello!
We have just launched the first ever online swishing site!!!
It works in exactly the same way as a normal Swishing event, the only difference being we only allow you take as many items as you are offering. That way it’s kept fair and you’ll always be left with a choice of items to take.
The first event is Thursday 4th December (next Thursday!) at 9pm, browsing starts at 8pm so please make sure you have your items in your bag and you have signed up for the event before 8pm!
We would appreciate it if you could all head over to the site and register and let us know what you think.
Ideally you should use Internet Explorer as we’re having a few issues with browsers such as Firefox, but nothing major!
Look forward to seeing you there!!
