MSMemory Clothing Giveaway
Back in September, Mistress Caitlin had mentioned to some friends that she would love to hold a clothing swap. Unfortunately, she was not able to schedule that before her illness.
She has, however, left a *lot* of clothing, and Justin feels that rather than just giving it to Goodwill, that Jane’s clothes should be shared amongst all her friends. I have been helping him move and organize it, and will hold the Clothing Giveaway at my home on *Saturday, May 14* and *Sunday, May 15.* (This was the best date I could come up with around all the events.)
There are racks and racks of clothes (16 and counting), and boxes and boxes of things as well - skirts, pants, and suit jackets; twin sets (in, I believe, every color that exists); sweaters; jeans; a few suits; more sweaters; work blouses, silk blouses, and casual shirts; yet more sweaters; T-shirts, sweatpants & sweatshirts, and still more sweaters - as well as two or three racks of shoes, purses, some costume jewelry, and perfumes. All of the clothing is in sizes from 10 to 18 (in those very accurate women’s sizes, meaning that if you are a size 12 or 14, you might fit into most of it *sigh*). Jane had excellent taste, and much of her clothing is from fine manufacturers - Jones New York and Ralph Lauren, as well as Lands End and Chicos. (A special invite goes to Wellesley alumni, as there are logoed shirts and hoodies.)
Ladies, please come to this Giveaway and bring an empty bag or three, to bring home things that suit your fancy. Although Jane had originally hoped to do a clothing *swap*, I ask that everyone plan only to take things *away* - I would be happy to organize a swap later, if people are interested, but for this weekend, as there is so much, I am concentrating on *giving away* only. Leftovers will go to charities, but we would like to give as much as possible to all Jane’s friends.
Remember also that Jane has always had cats, and the clothing will probably retain traces of cat fur.
Please mark your calendars, and I look forward to seeing everyone!
Saturday, May 14: 10:00 a.m. through 5 p.m.
Sunday, May 15: 12:00 through 5 p.m.
The giveaway is at my home. I do not want to post my address on the Internet; if you do not know where I live, please contact me with your email address (and your name!) and I will happily send you directions.
Note: Men are welcome to accompany their ladies on this adventure, but will be confined to the downstairs of our house, as the upstairs will be restricted so that ladies may try on outfits.
Also, my LJ circle is small; please copy this message into your LJ, to reach as many people as possible who knew Jane and might like to come!
