If you cleaned out your closet in the transition from Summer to Fall, but haven't taken those bags to Beacon's yet, procrastination is your friend. Save them for next week and swap them with other stylish Williamsburgers at the Score! Swap next weekend.
How it works:
You bring your bags of stylish wares, including clothing, accessories, housewares, music, books, DVDs– even art supplies– to the table at the entrance. Your donations get sifted through by volunteers, led by experts in each category. For example, the clothing will be curated by Nisha Gopalan, a senior editor at überstylish NYLON, to ensure that whatever you get is not a fashion faux pas.
You then go in look through all the stuff, take what you want (yes, for free!!), and if you can't carry it all you can get a hunky dude to help you carry them for $5. Ok, ok, the dude is just printed on their awesome totebag, but still... it's a score.
Plus, hunky baywatch-esque dudes and free duds is not all... There's will also be drinks, great music, even streetstyle bloggers snapping pics of everyone's stylish wares.
Here's what you can bring, and who'll be curating the wares:
