Swap Party

I mentioned in one of my questions recently that I was going to be hosting a "swap" party. I actually got the idea here on PNN and I wanted to share some details.

First of all, a swap party is a party where everyone just brings stuff that they are going to get rid of, and everyone can go through everyone else's stuff. (There's probably a more eloquent way of putting that.) We had a great time doing this. We all got a ton of new clothes and accessories, ate yummy food, drank wine and champagne and then watched Twilight. It was a really fun "girls night in." Here's a pic of the damage:

After the party (which went until the wee hours of 2am), we donated all of our remaining items to Goodwill.

I wanted to also share this picture of three of us in action. For those of you who are regulars on the Question of the Day portion of this site, here is a chance for you to see me (in the middle) and 2 of my favorite commenters. "Corn" is on the left and "Mel" is on the right. It's fun to put faces to names - isn't it!

 P.S.

I already wore one of my "new" pairs of pants - thanks Corn! And I got a ton of compliments on them.

P.P.S.

Sizes apparently don't matter. We had people of all different heights and weights and somehow (like that Traveling Pants movie) we all seemed to find some good clothes to fit into.
