Seattle FRUiTs Style Swap
« on: April 13, 2005, 04:29:32 pm »


★★[FAQ]★★

What is a FRUiTs Style Swap?
fans of japanese street fashion [or just street fashion in general] come togehter and bring kawaii [kawaii means cute in japanse] chothes they dont want anymore and trade with others. Lolitas, Cosplayers and cosplay are welcome too! All people of all different styles are welcome! The more the merrier ^____________^ ♡

Where will this take place? Volenteer park in capitol hill by the waiding pool

When? Saturday May 21, 2005 2pm till whenever.

Okay...so what should i bring?
Shoes, assessories [bags, patches], pants, skirts, shirts, chii ears, cat ears, whatever you can wear~!

Can i sell my stuff too? sure, but if you are, please make your items under 10 dollars. The point of a style swap is to trade, not to sell.

☆☆also, please bring some snacks/cookies/whatever to share since this is a picnic! Dont forget a camra either becuase you may want to take pictures. I'm bringing sammiches and what ever i can bring to the event! Who likes PB and J?☆☆

hope to see you there ♡

Hi PixxiY!

I just wanted to let others know that we talked and I think you have a great idea, but I also let you know I'm not a decision maker for the con and I pointed you to the right person.  I know YOU know that, but I thought it would be good idea to let others know that I'm not the one to go to for permission to run events.  

If anyone has an idea they'd like to bounce off someone, I'm still a very creative person that can perhaps give you a personal opinion or even come up with a few little things to add that might make the event even better.  (I will never had my feelings hurt if my suggestions aren't taken.  That's what suggestions are.  They can be used or tossed away.  Actually, what I like best is when I give a suggestion and the person doesn't really think it fits in, but then finds a way to modify it and turn it into something even better than either of us thought of by ourselves!)

FYI:
I'm in a very minor role this year, how minor will depend on my health.  At Sakura, Friday I sang and performed at opening ceremonies then performed with the 404s at 3.  Then I stayed in bed all day Saturday.  I didn't really get up until it was time to get dressed in my little Swiss outfit to be a Pocky Cam Girl and say Happy Birthday to Umipixy and make one pass by the dance.  Sunday, it was perform with the 404s at 11, make my first and only trip to the Dealer's Room, and then back to rehearse, sing, and perform in closing ceremonies, then go back home to
Eugene and to bed for a week.  I'm seeing a specialist soon.

hey, i'm on my ass for a week after getting my gallbladder out

((for any of you who eat a high fat/high sugar diet, STOP. NOW. Gallbladders can give you the most pain ever >.<))

but since i'm recouperating and can do nothing but sit around, i was thinking i might have to take up knitting again. and since i love the whole FRUiTs things, i was wondering if any of you would have any ideas you'd be intereste din buying/swapping that would be knitted. i'm not good enough to take on anything huge like a sweater, but i might be able to try things like legwarmers and the like. alrighty, thanks FRUiTSers!!!

anything can be FRUiTS ^-^ [FRUiTS is all kinds of fashion, Decora, Lolita, Gangaruo, Visual kei, hippie, urban..] Bring some plastic hair clips from the dollar store or whatever to trade. Here's some good ideas to get "FRUiTsy" items for cheap

-Thirft stores
[in the kids section, chothes, look at toys/bags area too]
-dollar stores [best place to get cutest hair assories for cheap]
-Target [great legwarmers/hosary selection also has lots of cute hair stuff too]
-Ross [has alot of cute tops and skirts for really cheap]
- Urban outfiters [pretty pricey but cute stuff]
- Buffalo exchange [has everything, good deals sometimes]
-Redlight [lots of retro-cool stuff, good deals sometimes]
anywhere with a clerance rack :D

Remember, if you're selling please keep your items below 10 dollars.

i would LOVE some legwarmers ^^  Get better!

I stopped by the goodwill bins yesterday to pick up some stuff to alter for the swap. I also found a bunch of stuff at home that I don't want anymore...but I don't know if I want to hold on to all of it for four more months, so I might start selling stuff on eBay or something....would anyone be interested in buying it there?

i'll save my best stuff for you guys of course :D :D
