Trade Shawls, Scarves And Skirts At Stevie Nicks-Inspired Clothing Swap

ALBANY PARK — Before there was boho, there was Stevie Nicks.

Known as much for her style as her singing, the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman, dubbed the "pop culture fairy godmother of witchy women," is the inspiration behind Thursday night's "Give To Me Your Leather, Take From Me My Lace" clothing swap at Halcyon Theatre.

Comb your closet for shawls, scarves, peasant skirts and anything with velvet, fringe or ruffles — better yet, anything with velvet, fringe and ruffles.

The swap kicks off at 7 p.m. at the theater, 4541 N. Spaulding Ave. Admission is $10 or BYOB.

The organizers are requesting that people bring a minimum of two items and a maximum of six to the swap.

Additional swap tips, courtesy of no less than Oprah:

• Make sure to clean out any pockets first.

• Leave anything stained or in poor condition at home.

• Don't forget accessories (Stevie loves hats!) — bring shoes, jewelry, handbags and other accessories.

English twins Ward Thomas on conquering Nashville and how niceness can be 'cool'

Their accents may be more “hoorah” than “yee-hah”, but last autumn Catherine and Lizzy Ward Thomas became the first British country act to top the UK album charts. Now the 23-year-old twins from the sleepy Hampshire village of Liss are gearing up to support Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks when the rock legends play Hyde Park in July. No wonder they’re “a bit dazed”.

“We love Stevie Nicks,” gush the sisters, when I meet them at their publicist’s office in north London. “Fleetwood Mac and the Dixie Chicks are our favourite bands. When we were growing up our parents were in a Seventies covers band. Mum was the singer, she was Stevie Nicks.” The wholesome sincerity of their enthusiasm is irresistible. They’re ridiculously likeable and totally lacking in the diva-esque attitude that was once standard issue in pop stars their age.

Actually I did watch it in entirety not too many years ago, like two or less, and both the 80s seem to have come back in fashion and I've started to develop a taste for that period it was particularly fascinating.
