Marketing mavens are trying to spin "recession chic" into a hot new trend, but we're not buying it. Real sartorial thriftiness is no mere passing fad — nor is it buying marked-down designer duds or shopping at discount retailers. Enter the ladies-only Chicago Clothing Swap, which lets you indulge your inner fashionista without dropping a dime. Donate gently used clothing (all sizes and styles welcome) at designated drop-off points across the city. For every item you donate, you get to take one out at today's free event. All leftovers are donated to Uptown women's homeless shelter Sarah's Circle, because frugal fashion — and a good cause — never go out of style.
