It's time for the annual "Out With the Old, In With the New” drive.

No, I'm not talking about spouses, jobs or even cars.

Talbots and Suited for Success again are hosting an annual clothing drive, Aug. 1-31, to help clothe low-income women who have completed job training or a readiness program and are actively seeking employment.

To help, clean out your closets and drawers and donate items that would be appropriate for an interview. Suited for Success is looking for:

•New or gently worn clothing, not more than five years old or in a classic or conservative style.

•Suits, dresses with jackets, pantsuits, blouses, skirts and pants.

•Shoes, purses, briefcases, jewelry and scarves.

•Unopened panty hose.

•Unopened cosmetics, and bath and body items.

•All sizes: misses, petite, junior, plus-size and tall. Sizes 16 and larger especially are needed.

•All items must be on hangers, stylish, in season, clean and pressed.

Take the clothes and accessories to any Talbots in the Oklahoma City area or to the Suited for Success office at 4141 Highline Blvd.
