eDrop-Off Shops for Love
Last week, we had the pleasure of supporting a wonderful event hosted by Sun-Times Splash and Christina McGrath. Shopping for Love was a glamourous night of retail therapy, pampering, and plenty of bubbly to benefit the American Heart Association.
We decked out the eDrop-Off table with Oscar de la Renta resort and spring 2013 pieces, elegant florals by Stemline Creative, and our brand new EDO necklace tees, illustrated by Rosemary Fanti. We sold the chic-shirts to benefit the American Heart Association, and raised over $1000! Thank you to everyone who purchased a tee!

Events: Christian Siriano Trunk Show at EDO
Last week we hosted an exclusive trunk show at our Halsted Street store featuring the talented and fun Christian Siriano. Guests were able to shop a selection of shoes, handbags, and clothing by the designer, while snacking on desserts and sipping wine. Everyone had the chance to mingle with Christian, who made a special appearance at the show. We had the best time!

Support Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation at eDrop-Off
We at eDrop-Off are proud to offer a new way to support Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation, a New York based cancer research charity, throughout the next month.
If you read the “Our Inspiration” page on the Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation website, you will find it a moving experience. Gabrielle Rich Aouad, the namesake and reason for the foundation, passed away from AML at only 27 years old. Her last wish was to create a charity with a focus on supporting research into better treatments for leukemia. She intended on finding a way to decrease suffering from the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.
If you consign with us, beginning today through November 22, you can choose to donate your consignment proceeds to benefit the charity. For more information, or to schedule a free nationwide pickup, email pickup@shopedropoff.com today!
Tips for Shopping Our Charity Warehouse Sale
The 2nd Annual eDrop-Off Charity Warehouse Sale is tomorrow! We’ve been busy setting up thousands of new and gently used name-brand items in preparation for all the fashion lovers planning to attend. If that includes you, we have some helpful tips on how to successfully shop our sale! On your marks…
1.) Get There Early!
Our sale is first come first serve, so getting to the event early is key. Doors open at 9am, but we saw shoppers in line several hours before the sale began last year! Remember: the first people in have the largest selection. Don’t forget a cup of coffee!
Make sure you are prepared for the elements, too. Bring an umbrella and an extra layer in case of changes in the weather.
2.) Select the Right Size
We have two sizes of bags available for shopping our sale, with a limit of two bags per person. We have a small bag for $20, and a large bag for $75. Your bag has to be able to close in order to carry out your items, so be mindful of how much you take. Below are some photos to help you pick a size!
3.) Hold On to the Ones You Love
If you see something you want, pick it up and hold onto it! Once you set it down, it’s open for anyone else to purchase.
4.) Get the Perfect Fit
Know your approximate size before you arrive. Hold up items from your closet at home, like a button-up shirt, a pair of pants, and a dress, so you can understand the proportions of your size garments. Then you can quickly size-up our sale pieces and won’t be stuck with anything too big or too small!
Since we’re offering many designer options, you might see some European sizes you aren’t used to. Check out our size conversion chart for help!
5.) Keep Calm and Shop On
Our sale is huge, and can easily leave you wondering where to begin. Don’t fret – just head to one area and focus on the racks in that section if you feel overwhelmed. There are so many unbelievable items throughout, you don’t need to be concerned with where you’re positioned.
Good luck tomorrow! We can’t wait for you to get amazing designer deals while supporting the Anti-Cruelty Society!
