Ever wanted to raid the closets of Seattle’s most fashionable? Get ready to on Sunday, March 17 at 1927 Events for the Urban Girls Garage Sale. Over 40 local sellers will be selling their gently used, still-stylish clothing, accessories and small home goods, with all remaining items going to the Seattle Goodwill. The sale is open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with a VIP Preview Sale from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

The sale is being organized by Seattle Army Reservist Zong Her, Girl Power Hour’s Darnell Sue and stylist Darcy Camden. Her is being deployed to Afghanistan in April and Sue may move to France, which prompted them both to make some hard decisions on what they’ll take with them and what needed to go. The two teamed up with Camden, founder of Styled Seattle and resident stylist at KING-5 New Day Northwest to provide styling tips to shoppers at the event, which will also include a networking café and retail vendors. Her is donating all her proceeds to Goodwill and each vendor will be donating the proceeds from one item to Goodwill as well.

Urban Girls Garage Sale is free to attend and $100 per table for sellers. For more info contact Chelsea Wyles at info@urbangirlsgaragesale.com.
