Dear Fashionistas,

I was recently at one of my favorite “cheap chic boutiques,” better known as TJ Maxx, and found this really cool and informative book while in the check out line.  For folks interested in eco-friendly beauty and fashion, Style Naturally looks like a great resource.  Authored by eco-fashionista and activist Summer Rayne Oakes, the shopping guide provides a comprehensive list of resources online and world-wide, including many retailers in Texas, naturally.

Fashionably Yours,

Nik

The Ultimate Exchange is the ultimate shopping experience!  It’s another opportunity to get glamorous, go green, give back and even make a little green to put in your pockets!  Here’s the summary, straight from the clothes horse’s mouth:

“Have you ever wanted to raid your best friend’s closet? Now is your chance. With The Ultimate Exchange you can profit from cleaning out your closet and shop our upscale, fun events featuring designer fashions at “got to have it” prices. Our 4-day, semi-annual shopping event is an eco-friendly, economically savvy fashion experience you won’t want to miss. It’s guaranteed to be a hot spot for the smart fashionista looking for a fabulous deal!”

The Ultimate Exchange will be going on Thursday, April 22nd through Sunday, April 25th at 5302 Beltline, Dallas, TX 75254 (that’s in Addison behind Houston’s Restaurant).  A Four-Day Pass is only $10 and a single day pass is $5 with half off on Sunday.  A portion of the proceeds will benefit The Ultimate Exchange Charity Partners. 

I know it may be a trek for some of you, but it’s oh so worth it- you do NOT want to miss this one-of-kind, eco-chic shopping extravaganza!

Fashionably Yours,

Nik

(P.S. Y’all report back any goodies you find!)
