After living in the New York metropolitan area for over a decade, I took for granted all of the special things that "the City" had to offer. One of my favorites was shopping with my mother and sister in the garment district, Chinatown or the diamond district (actually my Dad was lots of fun there!). When our board advisor for the For You Network in Moreno Valley saw a personal shopper on television who knew the ins and outs of LA, we jumped at the chance to be part of this urban shopping adventure. For only $99, our outing included breakfast, networking, wine & cheese, a lunch snack box, games and raffle prizes! Jennifer Kossler, event planner extraordinaire, created a one-of-a-kind experience for all. (Unfortunately, she didn't get to enjoy the fruits of her labor, as she was caring for her son who fell ill.) At the end, we sang "Happy Birthday" to Peggy Ricks, an amazing color & image consultant and dear friend. I enjoy connecting with other women and found this trip to be really special. In the end, it really is all about the relationship(s).
