When I signed up to attend Tampa’s first-ever Blogger’s Ball, I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. For weeks, I cyber stalked every social page I could find about the event, which was being billed as a place where “top blogging influencers and publishers, readers, fashion and lifestyle enthusiasts” were set to converge and show just how fabulous they were. Admittedly, this event was a bit outside of my comfort zone. But, I’ll be the first to say that I was pleasantly surprised! I met a number of fellow fashion bloggers from across the Bay area and learned that they’re not altogether different from me. We’re all looking for the perfect platform to share our style aesthetic, make connections and have a good time. And, the Blogger’s Ball was just perfect! Better still, it was in the name of a good cause; supporting Redefining Refuge, a local charity organization “dedicated to fighting for women and children who have been victims of the depraved injustice of sexual abuse.” I’m really looking forward to becoming more entrenched in Tampa Bay’s fashion community and getting to know my fellow bloggers better in the coming year. In the meantime, I’ll bask in the fashion forward glow of this past weekend’s events. Love U! It’s not just a declaration. It’s a call to action.
