Is there any gift more rewarding than the gift of giving back?
Not in my book.
So I was delighted a few weeks ago when Caravents invited me to their #CocktailsWithCaravents holiday party (co-hosted by Sazan Barzani and Sheryl Luke) benefitting Dress For Success.
Not only was it a meaningful night, but it was a beautiful one to boot, thanks to the delicate details that Caravents is famous for.
To welcome us at the exquisite Mr.C Beverly Hills, we were greeted with mulled wine and roasted chestnuts.
Then, there was – of course – photobooth fun.
Another round of cocktails by Mr. C Beverly Hills, featuring Absolot Elyx – the oh-so-delicious cranberry ”Holiday-Thyme” cocktails that we couldn’t stop staring at and sipping.
And, as if the evening wasn’t gift itself on its own, we were given luxe, overflowing Gift Bags By Rachael.
To cap things off? How about cookies and milk and mini ice cream cones?
The sweetest of all though was that, thanks to the generosity of all the guests, they collected over 250 pieces of clothing, accessories and beauty products to donate to Dress For Success, helping disadvantaged women gain the skills, confidence and attire needed to gain economic independence.
And it is such a gift to all of us who attended that we were able to use the power of our voices for good by properly kicking off the holiday season! We even raised awareness for Dress For Success by making over 2 million social media impressions over the course of the evening.
