I shared Host Picks to the Posh Party from my computer, because I find I am the fastest there! I love to host the afternoon Posh Parties while sitting with my Starbucks drink. Super fun!

I like to “like” my Host Picks ahead of time so I can easily share them once the Party starts.

What was your favourite part about co-hosting a Posh Party?
Since I don’t have any maternity wear and it had been a decade since I last needed any, it was a great learning experience, because it helped give me some ideas for my own sourcing in that department.
Tell us about your experience during the Posh Party?
I was bundled up in my room for a bit of privacy! It was fun and went really fast, and it felt great to give some people their first Host Pick!
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
Take your time choosing what you’re going to share! I accidentally chose a few things that I might have skipped otherwise. Have a few choices lined up for the party, too. I chose to “like” mine so they were ready to go.
What was your favourite part about co-hosting a Posh Party?
The interaction with other Poshers, and the shopping I did.
Tell us about your experience during the Posh Party?
I didn’t expect that I would be so busy searching and sharing and I loved that. It was fun to curate the items for Host Picks. I learned alot from taking time looking through other Poshers closets that I have incorporated into my own posh life. I was cozy on the couch with my computer and a glass of red wine.
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
Be totally posh about it… own it! Have fun and engage with other Poshers. And use your other social media accounts i.e. Instagram to promote. It makes it more fun and drives attention to your closet. It builds community on and off the platform—allows you to make more #pffs!

I spent the evening just Poshing it up with my peeps with my favorite drink, wine, in hand and the iPad I bought with my Poshmark sales!
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
Share lots of Host Picks—this will bring more traffic to your own closet too! Get prepared early by choosing listings to share ahead of time.
What was your favourite part about co-hosting a Posh Party?
Co-hosting was SO much fun! I spent a few days before the party scouring Poshmark for fun & festive styles, accent pieces and “first look” items from new Poshers.
Tell us about your experience during the Posh Party?
I sat in my big cozy chair with one of the dogs and a glass of prosecco. Share, sip, pat the dog, repeat! I loved connecting with fellow Poshers who took the time to thank me for my Host Pick! One Posher in particular reached out to thank me and let me know she got a sale as a direct result of the party. Exciting!
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
A few days before the party I researched and “liked” a few items so I could easily find them again when the party started. Be aware that in doing so you’ll likely get a few offers from some lively go-getters! I balanced out the listings that I pre-selected by choosing some lovely items from the “first look” showroom.
What was your favourite part about co-hosting a Posh Party?
“I definitely enjoyed sharing some amazing items as Host Picks from new and seasoned fellow Poshers. I also loved it when many reached out afterwards in appreciation, that was heartwarming!”

“I was on the couch cozied up with my cuddly #PoshKitty sharing from my phone”
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
“I’d definitely recommend searching for and saving items at least a few days before you co-host. You’d be surprised at how fast the time goes during the party! I like to maximize the number of Host Picks I share and use the full number I’m allocated so I choose the majority ahead of time and choose just a few while the party’s happening. I always find some last-minute treasures! I also use a template to send a message to each closet owner when I share their item to congratulate them and let them know when their item’s a standout piece!”

What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
“One of my tips is to feature new Poshers’ closets! It’s so fun seeing how excited they are when you select one of their items as a Host Pick for that Posh Party! I also love to filter by “new with tags” or “just added” so I can find the best items to share!”

What was your favourite part about co-hosting a Posh Party?
“I loved putting a spotlight on great closet listings that may otherwise not have gotten as much exposure and it was an awesome challenge to curate listings for a theme. It’s as close to actual shopping as I’ll get for a while in lockdown!”
Tell us about your experience during the Posh Party
“In the days leading up to my co-hosting date, I kept a collection of the listings I’ve chosen on my Likes page. When the time comes to co-host, I’m cozy on the couch with an iced latte sharing those saved listings and looking for more spectacular items to share to the party.”
What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
“Definitely start looking for your Host Picks in advance and save them to your Likes. Maybe even post a Posh Story to let everyone know you’re co-hosting and have them tag you in their listings that match the theme. It’s a great opportunity to make new connections within the Posh community and expand your outreach.”

What are some tips and tricks you would share with new Posh Party co-hosts?
“Be organized. Go through and like items ahead of time so you’re ready to share when your party starts. Have a think about who and why you want to choose the item you have. Consider picking people who have purchased from your closet in the past as an extra thank you provided they meet the criteria needed to qualify as a Host Pick.”
