Hi. Can you put me on your swap list? thanks!
Hi Nichelle. Love your website! I just launched my new fashion swapping website. I will be primarily be focusing on designer clothing and am looking for new members to my site. As the site is brand new there aren’t too many people who have joined and even less who have listed items. I am offering a grand opening promotion of a 1 year 100% free listing, swapping and selling membership to all who are interested.
I have begun advertising and will be doing a lot more promotions in the future but am trying to get as many people to join. As we all know, the more the merrier!
To get a 1 year free and unlimited membership just enter the promo code swap2008. The website is http://www.myfashionswap.com. Check it out, it is super cute and very girlie!
My goal is to keep the site very affordable for girls who want to swap as well as sell their used clothing. I want us all to look and feel great about our wardrobes without going into debt! Used clothing, as you know, is the wave of the future. Go green and save money, what more could a girl ask?
If you could at all pass this on, it would be fabulous! Keep up the good work, you rock girl! Thanks.

Hey nichelle, I saw the article in the Daily News and you looked familiar from the hot dog cookoff too! It is a small small world (brooklyn, that is). I wanted to let ya know about a clothing swap my friend lori and I have organized for August 11th on the Lower East Side. The link for the flyer is below. All extra clothes will be transported to a women’s shelter.
Any help spreading the world is greatly appreciated!

Hi Nichelle,
I’m working on an article for an NYC kids magazine about bargain shopping. Do you have any swaps in the works that will include kids clothes and/or gear that I could include?
Thanks so much!
Heather
I’d love to speak with you about your swap experiences. I would also like to be added to your email list for announcements of clothing swap events. If you have time to speak with me, please email me a couple of options when we might “have coffee or a drink” on the phone. Many thanks!
Love your concept and hope you’re thriving in style in your swap-generated garments.

Hi Nichelle,
I am a student at Parsons Newschool for Design in Manhattan and we are doing a project where we research organizations and companies that are based on the people in the community to contrubute and collaborate.
I came across your website on clothing swap and I think this idea is amazing and you have done a great job with your site.
Would you be willing to exchange your email so I can ask you a few questions and hopefully pitch you and your idea to my class in the near future?
Hi,
I’m pretty new to this but I have become curious. I am interested in finding how to set up a swap party of my own. I don’t have a place of my own but I might be able to get someone else to join in.
Bye for now
