By reaching out to our blog audience or hosting a live Twitter party, Facebook chat and streaming video at the event, we can expand awareness of all businesses and charities involved while strengthening community correspondence. Any event that involves fashion, shopping, community-building and social media is right up our alley! We're proud to be a part of this."
