LOVE Again Pop-Up shop: 4 & 5 March 2017

The Love again Pop-Up Sale encourages people to clear out and reduce the clutter in their lives by selling their previously used clothes, shoes and bags. It also supports a good cause so beside the fact that each selected donator gets a percentage of the sales, they also do something good for someone else.

Just getting “rid” of belongings make it very hard for people to clear out. I was planning on clearing out a lot of items and ran the idea pass a few friends, they all thought it was a great and wanted to participate. I got 15 people together and we have approximately 1000 items varying from clothes, shoes and bags to be put up for sale. How amazing!?

What this pop up sale is about?

That item that you see as being old in your cupboard, has been an admirable item to others and is still in perfectly good condition. Why not sell it to someone who will love it again? All of us women have the same issue: too many clothes in our cupboards and too little to wear yet we somehow find ourselves not clearing out and living cluttered lives in essence. A great feel good factor!

I also wanted to incorporate another feel good effect to the sale and therefor a portion of the sales will be donated to charitable causes. We will donate to the Ethembeni Children’s Home and also assist a young student to get trained as a barista and support him in finding a job to support his family.

What do we see as the must have pieces and basics to always keep in your wardrobe?

The most important item you can wear with any outfit, is confidence and a smile. Along with that, you can make any outfit amazing by walking upright and with purpose.

As much as it is great to follow fashion trends, our rule is that if you buy unique fashion items, don’t overpay. Buy it to last the season as next season it will not be so trendy and then you don’t want to deal with the hard reality that you paid too much for it.
Another rule is that you need to wear decent underwear. You can spoil the most amazing outfit if you fail in this department.

The 5 key classic items you can invest in and can dress up or down are:

1) Good fitting black cigar pants
2) Great fitting medium to dark denims
3) Crisp and good quality, well fitting white shirt
4) Genuine leather black high heels / stilettos
5) Tan or black leather handbag
6) Good quality and tailored black jacket
7) And of course a little black dress that you can wear everywhere!
8) Great underwear – I’m not talking about the sexy laxy lingerie – I am talking underwear that stays where they should – under your clothes and really makes the outfit look impeccable!

Please join us for the Love Again Pop-up Shop on Saturday 4 March 10am-4pm and Sunday 5 March 10-1pm at 28 Clarence Avenue, Craighall close to the Spar and next door to Dolci. If you don’t want to buy – just come and say hi – or come and share some love.
