I recently attended a closet cleanout birthday party for two sisters. They brought the contents of their closets and tried everything on in front of their friends (and me!) to get opinions. There was also a clothing swap! The party was so thoughtfully planned out, the planners even had surveys, a pink "catwalk", racks for the clothes, a swap area and a large NO bucket that was full by the end of the night. I enjoyed getting to know the group of ladies and hope that the two birthday girls walked away with some new ideas and had lots of fun.
Birthday Girl Monet, rocking a tiger skirt that (i believe) later found a home in the NO pile.
(Check out that cat walk!!)
Birthday Girl Sterling, looking stunning in her shirt dress with wide belt and leopard flats.
NO pile, in the works
Swap area, with some items on display for shock factor :)
I also got to have a little one-on-one talk with some of the other girls there, talking about different issues they have from dressing for work, moving on from a frumpy look or accentuating their body style. The party ended with the group of friends trying on and swapping clothes. I know a few items were swapped and will have a whole new life with their new owners. What a great party!
