Closet Swap

My sister-in-law and I were sitting around discussing how we want all new clothes, but (of course) can not afford to shop all the time. We quickly came up with the idea of closet swapping or closet shopping. This past Saturday she showed up at my house with a bag that had tops, tunics, skirts, cardigans, purses, bracelets, and even a dress! I went through it and decided I'd keep it all and see what I can do with it! ;) She took a few dresses, tops, purses, and necklaces (yes, she got some Marie Marie Jewelry) and when the smiles on our faces were the right size we parted ways! We decided that we would trade back in 10 days. A few of the items might be borrowed longer, but as of now that is the turn in date. I can not tell you how much fun I've been having with her stuff! I really can't believe I haven't done this with anyone sooner! I mean, I've borrowed an item here and there from a friend, but this is taking it to a new level! This is not going to be the last time I do closet shopping either. Next time I'm going to Kaitlyn's closet to choose my picks first hand. I also hope some of my other sisters/friends will want to play this game with me! Think of how much money we will all save!!!
This is a brilliant concept that I hope you all try with a friend/family member ASAP!
