The whole point is to ask questions, raise standards, make a difference and most of all demonstrate that change is possible no matter how small. If you haven\u2019t done so before, I would have a swatch at the <a href=\"http:\/\/loveyourclothes.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Love Your Clothes<\/a> site for a whole bunch of ideas on how you can make the most of what you have, look after what you\u2019ve got and dispose of your unwanted clothing in the right way. Come\u2019on guys! Your clothes deserve the best until the very end of their lifetime! <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Fashion-Revolution-Day-2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3080\" alt=\"Fashion-Revolution-Day-2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Fashion-Revolution-Day-2.jpg?resize=598%2C845\" width=\"598\" height=\"845\" \/><\/a> So, back to the event! The lovely folk at <a href=\"http:\/\/gladragsglasgow.co.uk\/ \" target=\"_blank\">Glad Rags Thrift<\/a> are celebrating the Fashion Revolution  by creating a fabulous evening featuring a Blogger Fashion Challenge and a free fashion swap shop within their big sister neighbour, Glad Cafe in Shawlands.  I will be joined by fellow local bloggers <a href=\"http:\/\/www.misswestendgirl.com\" target=\"_blank\">Miss West End Girl<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/lastyearsgirl.pixlet.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">Last Year\u2019s Girl <\/a>in  showing you how stylish ethical fashion can be using only goodies donated in the swap shop. We\u2019ve all heard the saying, one girls trash is another girls treasure \u2013 let\u2019s make it happen! <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Fashion-Revolution-Day-1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3079\" alt=\"Fashion-Revolution-Day-1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Fashion-Revolution-Day-1.jpg?resize=598%2C845\" width=\"598\" height=\"845\" \/><\/a> For all those first time swappers, here\u2019s the deal; bring three or more items clothing that are in great condition but maybe an impulse buy that is wasting space in your wardrobe . Drop off all your items at Glad Rags Thrift from <strong>5-6.30pm on Thursday<\/strong> to be put forward for the swap. For your clothes you will be given a coloured coupon to represent what rail you can swap at; high street, designer, vintage etc . When the <strong>event starts at 7.00pm<\/strong> it is up to you to go meet your fashion destiny and exchange your coloured coupon for your new found love. I love a good Swap Shop and I promise it is the perfect way to update your wardrobe without spending a penny! At the end of the night, any items remaining  will be donated to Glad Rags Thrift in support of the Glad Foundation. New clothes and being charitable? There\u2019s a revolution I am glad to be involved in! So see you all this Thursday at 7pm then? <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/20140218-000745.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2776 alignleft\" alt=\"20140218-000745.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/20140218-000745.jpg?resize=140%2C88\" width=\"140\" height=\"88\" \/><\/a> \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all want to do our bit to help save the world so when Glad Rags Thrift asked me to join a Fashion Revolution,well I just couldn\u2019t say no!
