Events Recap

2(9)Social season is in full-swing here with events almost every night this week with no sign of slowing down – just the way I like it!  It’s been so busy that when I finally had a quiet night at home I felt like I was forgetting something, that I had somewhere to be that slipped my mind.  From an industry panel discussion at Kitson to a Ladies Night at The Left Shoe Company to a Red Carpet jewelry preview, it’s been a really full week…

This event was sponsored by Townhang.com and Single Dress and was a great opportunity to visit with friends, sip champagne and do some holiday shopping.
