Time 4 a Fash Bash!




These are some friends from Ottawa; they're a pretty diverse group who's interests include play therapy, cuban music, graphic design, aboriginal rights, date squares, and prancing (!) They also happen to be some the participants in the FashBash I put on when I was still living in Ottawa! A Fash Bash is a party, in which we bring together a collection of stuff from our closets that we don't want anymore, and share it. Consumption of snacks and drinks are also a main feature.
It's a nice way to connect with friends, clear out the closet, and to keep clothes out of landfills.... all the leftover clothes are donated to charity when the party's over.
We all scored a few items that were really unique that night (a vintage dress/ shirt, a brand-new item that didn't fit the 1st owner, etc...) In the end, we ended up donating about 70-80% of the clothes we dug out from our closets.
Spring cleaning that's fun, and eco :)


(miss you guys!!!)
