Fashion Show!!

Hi all! If you didn't already hear about it, Cal State Long Beach was the place to be this past Wednesday. TRN held its first Sustainable Career Fashion Show on their campus. The weather was a perfect mixture of California sunshine and brisk autumn air, and our models looked fabulous!

Each of their ensembles came from recycled clothing stores- but you wouldn't have been able to tell that in office or on the street! It turns out that using recycled clothing to bump up your career wardrobe is a pretty fun and rewarding alternative to buying new.





Two great places to check out are Out of the Closet thrift stores and Dress for Success- a nonprofit that assists women in need by providing them with professional ensembles to wear for interviews and their first week on the job. We also found that Goodwill was another great source for used threads. Check out the amazing outfits our Event Planner put together with all of her finds!

And Rainmakers, we’d love to see even more of you at our next Sustainable Career Fashion Show at Cal State Fullerton this coming semester. In the meantime, happy shopping!
