More details about the clothes swap

Just a reminder that we have another Pretty Pretty Pretty party coming up, at my house at 3pm on Saturday October 17 (add yourself to it on Facebook here).  We hope you’re cleaning out your closet in anticipation, because a big part of that party, as well as of course sharing and enjoying sugary & boozey treats and favourite products, is the clothing swap. Because there were so many girls last time, it got pretty chaotic, so here are a couple of guidelines to make things run a little smoother.

  • Clothes will be sorted in Small, Medium, Large and Plus piles. There will be girls in your size coming along. Check out photos from last time if you want more evidence of the range of PPP readers.
  • There will also be a Special Good pile, in which you can put any designer items or clothes you’re really attached to, that we can all go through together instead of having a big free-for-all on, because I know last time some girls got into the clothes before anyone else had a chance, and people didn’t see who ended up loving the things that they’d previously loved before. The first time we had a clothing swap we went through all the clothes together and it was really lovely. I’m thinking there may be too many people and too many clothes to do that for all items, but if something has been really precious to you, then you deserve to see where it ends up, yes? Yes.
  • All leftover clothes that aren’t claimed will be donated to charity.
  • Bring accessories and beauty products that you don’t want anymore as well, and we’ll find them a good home.

Any questions? Comments? Testimonials from people who’ve come before as to how much fun it is and what awesome stuff you’ll end up with? I’d also just like to state again that I have met some lovely awesome new friends through the PPP parties, and I think you will too!

Time for another girlie party!

September 21st, 2009

We’re super excited that we’re going to be having another girlie party on October 17 and we would love you to come along. Bring clothes and accessories for a clothing swap, products you no longer want for the dud trades box, and maybe bring along something that you do love to share with the group – perhaps you’re an expert brow plucker, or you have amazing moisturiser or an impressive collection of red lipsticks? There will of course be cupcakes, but if you’d care to bring a plate and something to drink, that would be most welcome too. It’ll be at my house in Newtown again, and we can’t wait to see you again/meet you for the first time. Wahoo!
