I challenge you to the 'reuse fashion' pledge" here are the rules and the signed pledge form. Pass along!

REUSE: The Pledge

I TILLY RIVERS pledge that I shall abstain from the purchase of "new" manufactured items of clothing, for the period of 2 months. I pledge that i shall refashion, renovate, recycle preloved items for myself by purchasing only what I need from a used clothing store, or make the item myself, for the term of my contract. I pledge that I will share the love and post a photo(s) of my refashioned, recycled, crafted or created item of clothing on my blog (s), here on Facebook- or other on line venues so that others may share the joy that reusing brings, and show the world how easy it is to make a difference, 'going green' to help the environment!

Signed "Tilly Rivers"

The Rules

1.

• No buying new! (handmade- or used only) All clothing must be Recycled, Renovated, Preloved or Thrifted, or Handmade only for the term. Employment related and special needs clothing (ie sports,) shoes and undies are not part of the "used / home made" rules.

• 2.

  In extreme circumstances, maybe a special event, or the worlds greatest and most amazing never to be repeated sale that you simply can not pass up, you may use the Get out of Refashionista Jail Free card. You are able to use this card once during the 2 month part of your contract. Of course you need to fess up on the blog and display what you bought so the world can judge for itself if it was indeed a 'fashion-must-have' emergency.

• 3.

  You must post on you blog(s), Facebook or other on line venues at least once a week to let the community know what you've been up to. This will not only give you brag points, but inspire and encorouge others!

• 4.

  You need to be honest and admit when you've fallen off the Refashionista Wagon! And suffer the 'comments' that your actions caused.

Dark Side

Note from the author:

The dark side has fascinated us all. A little piece of who we are, the side we try so hard to hide, conceal, disguise.

Yet from time to time when we think no one is watching or when the lights are out and we are alone with only our inner selves we wonder…

What if?

What if the dark side is true?

What if I could truly let go and no one would ever know?

What if I could explore if only for a moment the bewitching sirens that are calling me?

What if for just a second I could be one with the dark side?

Come....

Let me show you- for just a moment

It's okay- you're hidden from sight..no one will see..no one will know

...... the dark side

Qualifications

Rivers not only thinks outside the box, she thinks outside the ‘circle’ her ability to create success after success mystifies most. Could it be because she is a marketing and business honours graduate? Understands the creative processes of Advertising? Has ten plus years in the role of CEO? Maybe it is her Mensa IQ of 174? Perhaps it is her humour or her charm and beauty? ~giggles~Whatever the reason, you are in good hands!

Day Off

As a work-a-holic; Rivers rarely has a day off. If you catch her relaxing, it would most likely be in a hammock, with the latest business, philosophy or new age book such as “The Secret” in her hands with a glass of red wine at the ready. She enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and two dogs and cat.
