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&#8217;t 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&#8217;ve got and dispose of your unwanted clothing in the right way. Come&#8217;on 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&#8217;s Girl <\/a>in  showing you how stylish ethical fashion can be using only goodies donated in the swap shop. We&#8217;ve all heard the saying, one girls trash is another girls treasure &#8211; let&#8217;s 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&#8217;s 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&#8217;s 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> &nbsp;<\/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&#8217;t say no!
