I like Gabriella Wimmer almost immediately upon meeting her. And not just because she’s offered me a glass of champagne to kick off our time together (though that certainly doesn’t hurt). Gabriella is friendly, approachable, and chic – qualities that should be paired together more often. But, most importantly, Gabriella is a woman who radiates confidence and self-assuredness, qualities of a woman who has fulfilled her purpose. And there’s nothing more stylish than that.
I’ve had an uncontrollable urge to clean recently. It’s been feeling a bit similar to the nesting phase I went through during my pregnancy, but spanning across all areas of my life. I spent the better part of my Sunday sifting through clothes and shoes, finding myself at the end of the process knee-deep in unnecessary clutter I’d accumulated over the years. Tops and dresses with tags still attached, shoes that had never been worn, and skirts with their pleats still intact all sat neatly piled in a bag on their way to find their new homes. It felt like I’d shed my own skin. And I’ve never felt lighter.
If you’re in the Miami area this weekend, I hope you’ll join me this Saturday, March 8th at The Recycled Closet (an urban, upscale consignment store) to shop, sip champagne, and raise some money for the Chapman Partnership to benefit the empowerment and rehabilitation of the homeless.
Candace, the lovely blogger behind From C to C, has planned this fantastic event including some of Miami’s fashion bloggers to help style you while you do some good for the community.
The first 50 ladies to attend will receive a goody bag courtesy of Gables Beauty Supply (one of my personal favorites).
To receive 10% off your purchase, post a photo of the event on your Instagram, and tag The Recylced Closet (@therecycledcloset) and the participating bloggers (@fromctoc, @kqnstyle, @bubblesandink {me!}, @downtostars, @fiercelythriftin, @beautyandbrowgirl, @nanysklozet).
I’m really looking forward to this event and working with all these incredibly stylish women. Hoping to see you all there to support a great cause!
