Princess for a Day

MaryLynn (of Rockin' Poncho and Fashion Bitchslap) wrote today about the Princess Project, which matches prom dresses with the girls who otherwise wouldn't be able to swing the big night out. The Princess Project rounds up the inventory via a combination of new dresses and donated frocks. In her Princes Project entry today, MaryLynn makes this offer, reproduced here with her permission:

If you have a dress that meets the guidelines and want to donate it, I will pick it up from you and bring it there myself. If I have to, I will even pay to get it drycleaned (but help a sister out if you can). Just let me know by next week and I will arrange something with you. Now - TO YOUR CLOSETS! Email me at marylynn@fashionbitchslap.com.

MaryLynn wrote about her volunteer experience last year, and frankly, it sounds great. I'm off to e-mail them and see what I can do this year.

Thanks for posting this Lisa - I hope people will take me up the offer.

I also want to point out that if you've joined into Lisa's monthly Reduce-Reuse-Recycle program this is a super great way to check Recycle off your list!

If you're in the Chicago area, the Glass Slipper Project is a similar organization: http://glassslipperproject.org/

Good way to get some value out of old bridesmaid's dresses. Provided they aren't completely horrible, of course.
