What It Says On The Tin: Fashion That's Friendly

Happy Good Friday everyone, hope you're all having a ball. I'm feeling a little worse for wear as I went to two parties last night. Yep, two. Cos I is so popular.

Anyway, I was contacted by this really great website called Friendly Fashion and agreed to do a post about them as I found the whole concept such a great idea.

Basically, Friendly Fashion is a place where "everyone can swap, sell or give away the clothes, accessories and shoes they no longer wear" It's a tad like Ebay but so much better as, guess what? It is completely free. Yes, no more sly 'seller fees' sneaking up on you or the website taking a cut of the final selling price. This way all the money you make goes straight to your pocket! It's a very simple website to use, all you do is click the button saying 'I want it' and then negotiate with the seller as to how you would like to pay/swap for the item ect.

Also, this website doesn't work on the basis of an auction and thus avoids unleashing that competitive bidding steak we all know we have. You can't tell me that you've never gotten just a tad over excited on Ebay and ended up bidding way too much for something you didn't even want in the first place.

Finally, I couldn't agree more with the whole ethics of this website. The majority of my wardrobe is second hand, mainly due to the fact that I don't have the money to be dripping in designer gear. But also because I'm a big fan of recycling and looking after the environment as between 1.5 to 2 million tonnes of clothing is discarded every year in the UK. Friendly Fashion helps give a new lease of life to old clothes and keep them out of landfills and in our wardrobes.

Anyway, enough of me ranting, have a look at some of the great items I found whilst browsing on the website and are available to buy now, so grab them while you can.
