get down to business

 

I came across these cool limited edition t-shirts created by Female Founder Collective that will assist LA-based women-owned businesses in urgent need of recovery. Not only do they represent the inextricable bond between LA and NY, but my split personality (native New Yorker, long-time LA resident)! For every donation of $100 or more, you’ll receive a tee, with 100% of the profits providing critical grants to female business owners. Women-owned businesses are 1.5x more likely to close after a natural disaster, and now more than ever, those based in LA urgently need our support! This mission is deeply personal for my friend Ali Wyatt, Co-Founder and CEO of the Female Founder Collective, who lost her Pacific Palisades home. She shares: “When I personally experienced the devastation of losing everything in the fire and seeing my vibrant community be decimated, it became clear what we all needed, and that is hope. Hope is the fabric that weaves us together in tragedy. And by taking action and moving forward, maybe we can be the hope by ensuring women have the resources to survive and rebuild—because when they thrive, our communities thrive.” You can contribute here. 

P.S. If anyone in my neighborhood is looking for quick, affordable and spot-on wardrobe replenishments, I know someone who can offer up some great recommendations ;), starting with the $54 denim jacket, below, this cinched quilted jacket, this twill (Chanel-y) blazer, and this cute pinstriped blouse.
