Saigon Outcast is preparing for another great event, this time with the theme ‘Thrift Shop.’ So this Saturday from 10am – 10pm, be sure to stop by and update your wardrobe!
From the organizer:
Only got $20 in your pocket? That shouldn't stop you from getting completely decked out in someone else's grandpa's duds!!!
Time to get pumped up for the first ever installment of Saigon's (hopefully) favorite annual event organized by the "Work Hard Play Hard" team (formerly known as "Live, We Are Young") and SGOC!!!
DRESSCODE: please find more details on how to dress appropriate for this event here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK8mJJJvaes
To raise and embrace the awareness of “Recycle, reuse and reduce,” get completely funked out and head on down to the one and only Saigon Outcast at 188/1 Nguyen Van Huong street to enjoy the sun set, local craft cocktails, frosty brews, tasty bites from local restaurants, snacks, musical entertainments, live performances and many more!
Check out our fashion clothing & accessories & book exchange / swap system:
Bring the stuff you don’t want any more to donate and exchange for something new – one man’s trash is another’s treasure!
It could be from books (English) to a t-shirt, scarf, pair of jeans, boots, sneakers, shoes, belts, earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelet, dress-shirts, pants and even books!…anything that you can wear- male or female. Get them clean, tidy and bring them in. We will provide a spot for them and sorted out. Make them presentable!
For every item you brought in, they will be checked at door first. Then if it pass, you will be given a stamp /sticker. With 2 stamps/ 2 stickers you are allowed to exchange for one new item.
