A place for us to
swap ideas
Eco-friendly summer swaps
It’s not just for clothes.
SUMMER IS HERE.
After a freeeezng winter, and a classically British, rainy spring, it’s about time we got some gorgeous sunshine.
How To Nail The Communal Wardrobe
We’ve all jokily said we have a communal wardrobe at some point. Whether it’s with your housemates, siblings or friends, everyone loves to borrow each others clothes.
So why don’t we apply this idea when we plan and pack for those summer holidays?
How to swap
The clothes-swapping of the past was all done in person, where all you had to do was hand over your items for quality checking, and then away you went on your merry little eco-conscious way to find some swaps! But here at Bandi, we always like to do things differently.
Love is in the air
On February 14th we love showing those around us how much we care, but at what environmental cost?
Organising your wardrobe
So you’ve decided it’s time for a clearout and are now faced with the mammoth task of decluttering your wardrobe. You aren’t alone.
Overlooked second-hand items
By now, we all know and love second-hand shopping. It’s an easy, sure-fire way to avoid negatively impacting the environment without stopping you from enjoying all the clothes you love.
The stigma of swapping and secondhand
As we’re sure you’re all aware, we think swapping is great. We would swap literally everything if we could, but that doesn’t hide the fact that a lot of the time, swapping clothes and buying second-hand has a massive stigma attached to it.
Thrift flips
Fashion is constantly changing, and when trying to keep up with the trends, it can be tempting to buy new clothes when you get bored with what you already own.
Where to look before buying new
We have all been there. There’s a big event coming up, trends are constantly changing, and you open up your computer to buy something new.
Why should I start swapping?
With the rise of Instagram influencers and TikTok trends, it’s hard to avoid the fast fashion brands constantly popping up on our feeds.
