Last month, I was asked to speak at Couture Expressions business and fasion event, where I gave advice to professional women about ways to work your office attire and spice the interview.
The event, hosted by Couture Expressions founder and creative director, LeAnn Harley, was a great success, as it promoted a local Washington D.C. non-profit, Success in Style. As a result, the Washington Afro-American newspaper cover it in their 'Sophistocated Settings' section:
Furthering the coverage, last week, I wrote a column about handbags and body fit - which for some, myself included, was a new concept. Luxury and lifestyle online magazine, Pursuitist featured it in one of their posts.
Through a Twitter connection, I was able to provide German fashion blog The Good, The Bad and The Divine with coverage of the Paris and Milan spring 2010 menswear collections. I chose to cover Prada and Japanese designer Junya Watanabe.
All of these outlets have been excellent exposure for me and I hope continue exploring my passion for writing and fashion. Though I don't typically use this blog as a personal forum, I do wish to express my appreciation to everyone who has visited District Couture or my DC Style Examiner column. I hope you find the information useful and entertaining.
Something I love about being an emerging style writer is the opportunity to highlight others work as they have been so kind to do for mine.
Thank you all!
With <3,
Marie
