Annabelle Swap 2014

As mentioned in my previous post, I went to the fashion swap event yesterday in Kaufleuten, organized by the Swiss magazine annabelle.
I brought my 'old' clothes last weekend and got 2 chips of the category 'Street' and a wristband for the entry.

I arrived at 15:20, 10mins before the door opening and there was already a long line infront of the entrance.
Finally, we can get inside!

The guys in light green shirts served us a welcome drink, a refreshing Café de Paris "Hugo" with fresh peppermints! Yummy!

The entrance area was very packed and the ladies were getting impatient when the doorman didn't want to open the doors to the main floor even when it turned past 4PM...


Finally! As soon as the doors opened, the ladies pushed themselves to get to the main floor to snatch nice clothes, shoes and accessories.

Each clothes rails were labeled either "Street", "Cool" or "Luxe". There were even some new clothes with price tags on!

The shoes from the category "Luxe" were displayed nicely like in a boutique.

This was the check out area, where you swapped the clothes with the "chips" and where everyone got a goodie bag! Yay!


Here, the "buyers" are waiting in line to get access to the event from 5PM. Those who didn't bring clothes for swapping but who wanted to buy clothes and accessories also had the chance to attend this amazing event.


So this is what I got at the annabelle swap: black pumps from asos and a new flower tanktop from H&M still with tags on! ;-)
Inside the goodie bag: "The Colossal be Extreme" mascara from Maybelline, Café de Paris "Litchi" flavor and a 'Flexible hold hairspray, Instant dry' and a 'Silk shine cream' from "OSiS+ SESSION LABEL" by Schwarzkopf!
Yesterday's event was really crowded and bustling but the it was lots of fun and I would definitely go next year again!
