Hold a Closet Swap Soiree

    During the pandemic, we may be buying more than what we need, including clothes. Once everything is lifted, you can share your 
surplus clothes with friends and acquaintances by throwing a "naked lady party." This is a fun way to exchange clothes as well as other items. First, set a date, and invite a group of friends to your house (we do ladies only, but men could be included, too) and ask everybody to bring some clothes that they don't want anymore. Set up your living room as a shop, designating different areas for guests to deposit their item-dresses in one pile, sweaters in another, and so on. Be sure to make a bedroom available to those friends who are too shy to try on clothes in company. We usually have wine and some snacks, and we end up with bags of new-to-us clothing. Don't be bashful- things that you are heartily sick of will be starring in someone else's wardrobe, and the surplus can be dispatched to the thrift store.
