 | | If 10,000 Chicago Biters swap hip vintage tees instead of buying new ones, we'll avert the weight of 32 Kate Mosses in pesticides. |
|  |  | | In a recent poll, 80% of women surveyed admitted that they never wear 25% of the clothes in their closet. | | |

|  The Bite
What’s the trick to getting new clothes for cheap? Trading. Read this twice: In with the old and out with the old. That’s the motto at Swap-O-Rama-Rama, the latest DIY craze that’ll hit Chicago this Sat. For 20 bucks and a sack of your old duds, a giant swap pile is yours for the rifling (you’re welcome to a little or a lot). Our fave part: Take your new loot over to the creative reuse section of the room where needle-and-thread-savvy volunteers will help you transform or repair clothes with sewing machines and fabric tools. In with the old and out with a brand new wardrobe is more like it. |
