As a celebration of hitting 10k followers on Instagram in just six months and hosting 20 sustainable events, the girls have a great evening planned.

Over the last few months, the girls have saved clothing from going to landfill, educated the masses and shown Ireland how fun (and not grey) sustainability can be.

The event will commence, of course, with a swap shop where you bring five pieces with you to swap for some pre-loved bits.

THE VINTAGE SCENE IN PARIS IS ON FIYAHHH🔥🤩🙌🏻 “By-and-large people here have a different mindset to clothes – viewing them as an investment; something to value, cherish and respect (as opposed to wearing once and then throwing out within the month). As far as the french see it; if you invest in a few beautiful statement pieces alongside your well-made long-lasting staples, you’ll be on the road to a sustainable wardrobe in no time.” 💖💖💖 If you like what you see above☝🏻 then keep a lookout on our stories as @geraldine_carton will be doing a BIG roundup of Paris’ BEST vintage shops & flea markets to check out if you plan on booking a little séjour over the next while!💖🇫🇷👗 #vintage #paris #sustainable #style

Doors are opening at 6pm at The Tara Building, this Saturday, July 20.
