Can you believe February is almost over? It’s a short month, so it’s pretty much gone before it even starts, but one thing I know a lot of people are looking forward to at the end of February is SPRING! Oh, and the Oscars! I love any reason to celebrate, have the girls over, and enjoy some yummy treats, so why not have an Oscar party? Besides, I should have a front row seat being that I am the mother of the toddler who must receive the award for “Best Drama of 2012.” Yes, she’s a diva, and no, she won’t be attending mommy’s big girl party, even if we do honor her title.
So, on to the party planning! I sent out a mass text to my closest girls, and within seconds they all replied that they will be attending. We SO need this girls night in, can you tell? Then I went on to tell them that Skinnygirls Cocktails will be sponsoring our cocktails and snacks for the evening, and everyone will be going home with some Skinnygirl swag! Being that it’s only February, most of us are still on this “I will lose the last of this baby fat, even if it means I spend all my calories on chocolate and bacon” kick. I know I am, so I’m happy to see that my Skinnygirls cocktails contain only 100 calories per serving. But please, ladies, that doesn’t mean you should starve yourself and have 15 drinks to stay within your caloric needs for the day, so please drink responsibly when partying with Skinnygirls cocktails!
Here’s another reason to love Skinnygirls cocktails: Skinnygirl Cocktails will donate to Dress for Success for every red dress on the red carpet. You can follow them on Twitter at @Skinnygirl to let them know when you spot any #LadiesinRed, and Skinnygirl Cocktails will donate $2,500 to Dress for Success for every red dress they see! How awesome is that!?! Don’t forget, the Oscars are THIS WEEKEND! Feb 24, 2013!
Dress for Success is a not-for-profit organization which assists disadvantaged women on their paths to financial independence and self-sufficiency. Dress for Success provides professional attire and a network of support and career development tools to help women get and retain jobs.
Skinnygirls has provided cocktails, swag, and a giftcard to help my guests have a fun-filled evening of celebrating the Oscars!
