ladies and gents, the clothing swap has just gone electronic! imagine a site where you can post items your closet no longer needs...where you list your size and fave brands, styles, colors, etc...and imagine the convenience of not even having to run to the post office to ship the old garb, instead ordering prepaid envelopes to your home and just popping them in a mailbox. thred up!
