Hello how may I help you? I am looking for interesting convo starters for a dinner party ok what type of party is this? This will be a dinner party of four, really intimate affair you can start by complimenting their clothes Really? What exactly should I say? Nice shirt..it compliments your face? yes if it's intimate, they will be wearing their best Hm. Okay. Any other ideas beside complimenting their clothes? ask about that expensive jewelry they are wearing Hmm..would that be considered tacky? no they will love it
