Start your week right; get some retail therapy with a social conscience (and a breakfast bap).

Overview

If you like your fashion to come with an eco-tick of approval and a social conscience to match, you may already know about National Op Shop Week, organised by DoSomething! and the National Association of Charitable Recycling Organisations (NACRO). Joining them again this year, the Salvos will be celebrating the all too important role charity shops play in supporting those less fortunate by bringing a pop-up op shop to Martin Place.

Drop by early for a free breakfast bap before browsing the select range of recycled clothes from local Salvos Stores. Plus, TV fashion commentator and eco-fashion blogger Faye De Lanty will be curating the pop-up's fashion show, designed to showcase different ways to wear vintage and recycled pieces and demonstrate that style doesn't have to come with a three-figure price tag. Proceeds from the pop-up, as with all Salvos Stores, will go towards running vital community support programs. Retail therapy has never felt so good.

The Salvos' pop-up op shop will be at Martin Place on Monday, August 25, from 7.30am to 3.30pm. National Op Shop Week continues from August 24-31.
