I was invited this Wednesday to the Kenzie's Closet "In the Bag" fundraiser. I brought along my mom for a much needed girls night out. We arrived at the Hyde Park Country Club and didn't really know what we were getting ourselves into. I was sort of familiar with the charity and didn't realize how involved it was. I always believed that Kenzie's Closet was a place fr high school girls to pick up a prom dress if you couldn't afford one. Boy was I wrong! Kenzie's Closet helps these girls out be putting their whole look together. From shoes to jewelry, from gloves to purses, from shaws to alterations! This charity is a great one to get involved with! Brynne, the founder, asked if I would like to come help out the girls get ready for prom. I thought it was an excellent idea and an offer I must take her up on!
The building for the party was decorated in hot pink and black and they had candy layouts with tiara shaped cookies! I soon met Deb Knoske there, who was the photographer for the evening. LOVE HER!!! :) One of the big fundraisers that night was called The Purse Vault. You could buy a ticket for $25 and go in the "vault" and pick out a gently used designer handbag. You could even buy a $100 ticket and pick up a highend designer purse (I saw a Louis Vuitton and so wanted it!!) I decided there was no way I could pass that up and ended up picking out a dark brown leather Furla satchel with a $10 Starbucks gift card, jewelry cleaner, and a $100 off coupn for plastic surgery (which I will not be using).
The night was very eventful and I got to meet some awesome women! At the end of the night I drew the winners name for the Grand Prize-A Naples Trip. Congrats Sandra!!!!
