New Project!

I'm starting a business!


Need to downsize your closet for college? Want to make room for newer, updated clothing? Don't know where to start in your mess of a room or closet? Let me help! I'm going to major in fashion merchandising at Seattle Pacific University and want to start a fashion consultation business and consignment shop for high school and college girls. I need your help as much as you may need mine.

The concept:
1) I will personally help you go through your room and closet to figure out what pieces to keep that work best for you (your body, your lifestyle, etc.)
2) With what is left in your closet, I will show you different outfits that are possible and also advise you to invest in certain basics if you don't have them already.
3) It will also be possible to request a shopping day with me (which is always fun. Tiring, yes, but rewarding at the end of the day). This will all be done for an hourly fee of about $10.
4) I will cart away the items for you that don't work; either to a thrift shop or, once I collect enough items, to my shop.
5) With or without a consultation, you can donate your gently-used clothing and accessories to my shop or
6) I willconsign them. "Consigning" means that after your items are sold, you will receive 30-40% of the selling price.7) Myshop will be open limited hours (still to be determined). The location will be on First Ave North by the Key Arena.

As for profits, a portiongoes back to you, the customer, a portion goes towards my church (I am participating in a challenge tofind ways to multiply $60. I will take the profits to church and the youth group will decidewhich three organizations to donate to) and the rest will go towards me and my college tuition in order to receive my fashion merchandising degree at SPU. If you're interested in a consultation, shopping spree, donating clothing or becoming a consignee, contact me! If I generate enough interest,you win, I win, some deserving charities win! :D Thanks!


Exciting, no?
