You put lots of thought into this and have probably made a difference in how some of those girls view their bodies. Thank you for reporting back.<br /> If you go to the Goodwill, you might want to call and talk to the manager about what you want to do and ask for advice. Certain days are more newly stocked and weekends may be too busy to get into dressing rooms. You might also ask the girls to wear camis and leggings or bike shorts under their clothing for more modesty and ease when trying things on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/girls-fashion-evening-thank-you#post-160977 Mon, 24 May 2010 16:36:08 +0000 yublocka 160977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh Taffy that's awesome. I love it when great ideas like this come to life!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/girls-fashion-evening-thank-you#post-160972 Mon, 24 May 2010 16:25:51 +0000 DressLover 160972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's such a fun, fresh party idea! I'm sure your guests had a great time and left confident and ready to shop with a new outlook.</p> <p>I do a lot of entertaining, but it is almost always a food/wine type of event. And it seems like I am always invited to parties where I'm expected to purchase something from the hostess.</p> <p>I might have to try this for myself sometime in the coming months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/girls-fashion-evening-thank-you#post-160965 Mon, 24 May 2010 16:01:51 +0000 Rosie 160965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like it went so well!!

I would have absolutely adored an evening like that as a young teen. </p> <p>I went back and read your original thread, Taffy -- are you going to follow up with a trip to Goodwill? Maybe you could snap some photos for YLF (can leave the faces out if that's of concern.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/girls-fashion-evening-thank-you#post-160654 Sun, 23 May 2010 21:18:55 +0000 Taffy 160654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped with ideas for the girls fashion evening that I was in charge of. It went very well! You all were right... we had every body shape represented. We split into partners and had everyone trace their bodies, then we tried to figure out what shape they were.<br /> I had them visualize shopping for the perfect pair of pants only to find in the dressing room, that the pants had 3 legs! Obviously, nothing wrong with the body, something wrong with the pants! THen I tried to repeat that idea throughout the evening: that just because something doesn't fit doesn't mean that there is something wrong with you.<br /> We covered the basics of dressing each body type and the current trends. (BIG THANKS TO ANGIE!!! I pilfered all the info for the evening from this site...and tried to send more traffic this way!)<br /> The accessory swap table went really welll!! It was funny to watch the girls getting rid of things that others were so excited to have! I think that we had a good atmosphere of accepting what and who we are, which I tried to mimic from this site.<br /> So thanks again everyone! </p>
