I was just invited by the interior designer that usually does the furniture for my fire station projects to a Purse Party.
Huh?
I almost trashed the invitation (purses are not really on my radar; I have one small baggallini about 5"x7" that I put my credit cards/phone/fold up brush. into and that pops into my laptop bag; I do not have any other purses).
Here is what the invitation reads:
Sponsored by KI and Pallas Fabrics [note: these are commercial fabric lines for desk chairs and stuff]
Come and view the latest Pallas fabric offerings. Select a bag design with your favorite Pallas fabric(s) and receive your complimentary bag in just a few weeks!
Drinks and hors d'oeuvres will be provided
So it's a free purse, and they're feeding me? Also - this interior designer has daughters, and F went to camp with one of them last summer (they loved each other). I'm going to see if her daughter will be there (I think she will - the interior designer is super sweet and has an afterschool kid area in her office that she's invited F to come to before).
So - what do you think? Should I rsvp yes?
If I go, what should I do with the purse? Keep? Sell on Craigslist (or is that rude?).

It's very business networking and sociable to attend these events. You aren't obligated to partake drinks and food that may not be compatible with your preferences. Select a bag design to give as a gift or business promotion since you have a preferred style but you needn't explain your intention. If you don't like the results you are free to sell, donate or trash. A gift given is immediately to property of the receiver to use as they wish.
