Do Good, Look Good: Sunday's Proper Topper Clothes Swap Benefitting Martha's Outfitters

UPDATE: Rain delay (our location was totally outside with no cover). We'll now be doing the swap on 10/10/10, same time, same place. More time to clean out your closet!

What do you get when the fabulous Anna of Proper Topper meets two food bloggers obsessed with fashion and accessories? Well, Sunday [October 10th] from noon til 4pm you get the first-ever Proper Swap!


Here's the deal. We cull our closets for those things that are in good condition, but we just don't wear. It's time to downsize that closet so that you can acquire new fall fashion. So get rid of those one-size-up/one-size down clothes and swap them Sunday [October 10th] on the Proper Topper patio for new things from your fellow swappers!

Alejandra from One Bite at a Time and I will be baking sweets and Anna from Proper Topper's giving all swappers a great discount on accessories to go with their newly acquired outfits.

All clothes that are not swapped will be donated to Martha's Outfitters, a community thrift store and clothing distribution center providing free and low cost supplies to those in need.  We'll be accepting a modest $5 donation (or more if you're feeling give-y) to Martha's as an entry fee for the swap. Where else can you get a totally new outfit for FIVE DOLLARS??? Plus, did we mention our lovely company, sweets and discounts!

So, do good, look good... and come on down to Proper Topper Georgetown and have a fabulous time hanging out with us!  Proper Topper is located on P Street NW, near Wisconsin Avenue.

I spent many a paycheck at Anna's store. I LOVE that place. Tell her Nelle says hi. So sad I can't high tail it down to meet you in person. Have the BEST time and enjoy the weekend!!!
