Join us this Thursday at the glittering new Lauren by Ralph Lauren Shop at Bloomingdale's! We'll sip Pinot Grigio, nibble on crab cakes and revel in luxury! It's all part of the Decorate Like a Pro extrava-GAHN-za, featuring style tips and tricks from design bloggers like lil' ol' me. Here's an ad from today's New York Times.
The party starts at 6 pm, and make sure you wear your shopping shoes! 10% of sales benefits Housing Works, a healing community of people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. Hope to see you on Thursday, everyone!
