With many students stuck at home with nowhere to go, we understand that swapping can seem tricky at the moment. So, we’ve come up with a few ideas to help kickstart your swapping journey, while also making sure all Dopplle swappers feel safe and comfortable…

We have realised that the main concerns Dopplle swappers have are that, due to the current climate, everyone is worried about swapping in person due to COVID-19, which is completely understandable. Others also really want to take part, but do not have any clothes at university that they want to swap! Read below and see how you can keep on swapping!

Combine swapping with your daily exercise

We all need to get out of the house every now and then – not only is it good for us physically, but it also makes us feel better mentally! Use this time to meet up with other swappers in a mutually convenient location and make your swaps outdoors.

Get Comfy

As much as we all love getting dressed up and going out, this year it’s all about looking nice while being comfy. Upload some of your pre-loved loungewear into the Dopplle app and swap for someone else’s comfy chic clothes to refresh your “chillin’ at home” look.

Bubble Swaps

Get together with your bubble or household and have fun looking through each other’s wardrobes. Pick out anything that they haven’t worn in forever and could benefit from a new home. You may even see something you can nab for yourself!

Old Clothes, New Tricks

Most of us have old clothes in our wardrobe that are missing a button or have seen better days, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t be loved again! Repair or upcycle your old clothes to give them a new lease of life and add them to Dopplle to give someone else the chance to wear them. Do you already upcycle clothes? Let us know and send us some photos of your projects on any of our social medias!

Do a deep dive into your wardrobe

Use this extra time at home to properly look through your wardrobe. Dig out some items that you don’t need anymore and could be given new homes and leases of life through Dopplle. But also suss out if there are any essential items that are missing from your wardrobe. Use this as an opportunity to search Dopplle for key everyday pieces of clothing that will help to complete your collection.

So what are you waiting for? Keep on swapping!
