Forget overpriced dinners and rom-com marathons—this Galentine’s, we’re doing it right. The Free Community Closet is back in action, and they’re throwing a FREE shopping party at Stella’s on West! From 3 to 5 pm on Saturday, February 8, you and your besties can rummage through racks of pre-loved treasures and leave with a brand-new (to you) wardrobe. No need to bring donations—just your fabulous self.
Not sponsored. But free stuff always deserves a hype-up.
