When Adaku U. (a.k.a ThirdWorldProfashional) tweeted sometime last week that she was having a wardrobe sale, i was all kind of excited! And the clincher: every item was going for a token of N1,000. I couldnt wait for Sunday the 9th! Anyone that knows TWP will attest to the fact that she is a fashionista! I couldnt believe that most of her red/green/yellow carpet ensemble and accessories {some of which have been worn just once} were up for grabs....just like that! Some folks would say...and did say...why sell already-used items, even if they were being sold at ridiculously cheap prices? Why not give to charity? I would argue: how charitable can this get...a pair of brand new Gucci sandals or a Deola Sagoe polo shirt which usually retails for N15,000 now being given away for a token?!
Anyways, i wasn't the only person excited about this sale {i infected my friend Miranda with my excitement too}. It was originally scheduled for 12:00noon but by ten o'clock that a.m, there was a sizeable number of chics waiting outside the gates! Needless to say, by the time yours truly was able to make it to the sale, a large chunk of the fabulous spoils were gone! Bummer!!! No worries though since i had eyes only for the bags and accessories....and i did score some!

Putting up ninety percent of her wardrobe up for sale was a brilliant move on the part of TWP. It couldn't have been an easy decision to make, i am sure....chics/women are natural borne hoarders! The wardrobe sale, however, was a win-win situation type thingy. The shoppers were thrilled they scored really fabulous items for less and TWP got handsomely paid to de-clutter her wardrobe!

I had a fun afternoon on Sunday the 9th....bargain shopping makes me really happy! Appreciations to Adaku (@VivrantThing) for having us and to Miranda (@jerominababies) for letting me drag her with me!
TWP inspired a lot of young fashionistas with this sale that i'm sure there would be a few more wardrobe sales in the nearest future. Watch this space or follow on Twitter (@Zitera) for updates. Love and light...x
