A very glamorous jumble sale...

There are jumble sales and then there was Selfridges' Really Really Great Garage Sale in aid of the charity Mothers4Children.

The event, which took place yesterday lunchtime, took over the first floor of the store's car park and had 45 stalls selling items donated by celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Tamara Mellon and Lisa B, manned by the likes of David Walliams and Trinny Woodall.

By the time the stalls opened at noon the queue was 800-strong. Items for sale included a stunning Roland Mouret dress (pre-owned by Davina McCall) and a pair of Dame Shirley Bassey's glittery platform shoes. All show-stoppers!

Charity Swishing Event

On Saturday 19^th September 2009 Juno Says Hello Ltd held its very first event! We organized a swishing party at the award-winning Jerusalem Tavern in Clerkenwell. For those who are not familiar, swishing is a form of eco-friendly and sustainable style - a quick a fun way to swap your way to a better wardrobe.

Everyone brings clean, presentable clothes that are lurking unloved in their wardrobes, and other girls fall in love with them and give them a good home.

Swishing RULES:

1) Everyone must bring at least three items of quality clothing
2) You will hve an hour to browse before the swish opens.
3) No item may be claimed before the swish opens.
4) As soon as the swish is declared open, everyone may take what they want.

Everyone has to play nice - no scratching, spitting or fighting!

Thank you so much to everyone who came. It was a lovely day and we managed to raise £450 for a very good cause: Look Good Feel Better - the cancer support charity that helps women manage the visible side effects of cancer treatment.
