Last week, I spied the cutest and brightest hot pink bag on the floor of my co-worker’s office. Instantly smitten with the item, I made a note to later ask her about it. In true KB fashion though, I ended up forgetting about the bag until I stumbled across this tweet: Could it be? Did they have the scoop on my bag obsession? I clicked the link and VOILA…It was THE bag! It turns out [...]
Red vote. Blue vote. Honestly, I could care less at this point. (Please don’t tell my Dad!) But, what I do care about is the fight against breast cancer. So, ladies and gents, I’m asking you to cast a pink vote in support of my co-worker, Lauren. She is currently in second place to win $10K for her medical bills. To vote, please click HERE and vote in the category of “Most Successful Fundraiser by [...]
Over the weekend, I was talking to a friend of mine about how tired I’ve been lately and he asked me what I’d done all week. Usually, I answer with the usual “Work, Red Pump stuff, work, blog.” But, this time, I attended some actual events, a couple with a charitable focus! So, of course, that made me smile. Here’s a quick recap of the two fun things that I did last week! I attended [...]
Intermix, has teamed up with artist Marilyn Minter to create the limited-edition Green Pink Caviar tote to commemorate breast cancer awareness month.

This weekend, I tried to keep up with the big girls and attend a couple of BlogHer events. Allow me to tip my hat to the ladies who attended the conference sessions, along with the pre- and post-parties. You all deserve some type of medal! On Friday evening, I joined bloggers at the Blogalicious/LUSH Experience in the LUSH Cosmetics section of Macy’s. The private event took place after store hours and was amazing! I am [...]
Even after a year, I consider myself to still be a blogging newbie! I mean, there is an entire world out there that I am still learning and trying to figure out. One thing is for certain…If you are a woman blogger, than the BlogHer conference is definitely where you want to be. The two-day conference is full of great workshops, led by blogging geniuses and business leaders who are blazing paths in social media. [...]
On Sunday, I spent my day walking around the city and checking out events held by two great organizations! First, I payed a visit to The 900 Shops on North Michigan Avenue. Bright Pink was hosting its charity shopping event, and I stopped by to grab some pictures and say “Hi!” From the giant sign out front to the smiling volunteer wearing a pink shirt, there was no mistaking the point of this day. DONATE…SHOP…SAVE…ENJOY! [...]

As a budding yogini, I’ve decided that I want to get some new (read: official) yoga gear. I remember reading about a partnership between lululemon and Bright Pink, so I decided to check out the website and see if their charitable spirit was a one-time deal or if it was a staple in their world. To my amazement and sheer thrill, lululemon absolutely believes in the power of giving back. The lululemon Charitable Program [...]
