The W Hollywood Yard Sale

The staff of BeansTalk attended this year's Hollywood Yard Sale on that warm Sunday afternoon, and thanks to our dear friends at Rousso and Fisher (note: if you want a great publicist, consider RJ and Ryan, who are as darling as they are efficient), a good time was had by all.

W Magazine hosted its second annual sale (we loved last year's, too), presented byGUESS? Stars sold items from their personal and professional lives. Attending and selling were Nicky Hilton, AManda Bynes, Jane Kaczmarek, Bradley Whitford and Lisa Rinna and many others -- all supported the charity Clothes off Our Back.

Celebrities hosted booths selling their wares, proceeds which went to Clothes Off Our Back which raises money for charities such as Children's Defense Fund, Smile Train and Cure Autism Now.
