This morning Nisha, Pam and I spent an hour helping Slough Outreach with donated Asian wear fashion items! commonly referred to as 'suits'...

When Shin told me about the task I knew I had the right person signed up! What doesn't Nisha know about Asian fashion??? She's our glam Bollywood Queen!

So the task was to sort through all the donated lenga's; salwar kameez; dress suits; suits; sari's and general party sharty items into 3 piles...

  • Hang with pride and sell for a fiver;

  • Bargain bucket good to go but missing an item for 3 quid;

  • Long lost love not worth keeping so lets give to rag.

In our best 'market trader' accents we got to work...

Classy is not what you wear... It's how you carry yourself

Some of the donated items were of immaculate condition and a real bargain at a fiver... we hope some lucky locals pick these items up!

Within one hour we had sifted through 2 big boxes of clothes and labelled them accordingly!

So from drab to fab we did our job!
