The McCord List+ Shop MISA Dresses on Sale

I met Rachel McCord at a PR Net Breakfast and was instantly attracted to her positive energy and confidence. Shortly after, she invited me to one of her "The McCord List" photoshoots and luxury gifting suites. This event benefited the  Imani Collective, a home goods company that employs over 50 Kenyan men and women to create non-toxic, handmade, sustainably and ethically sourced pieces for kids and their mamas. It was a wonderful experience to connect with so many incredible influencers and brands which took place at the incredible Mogul Design store in West Hollywood. Brand sponsors at the event included: Copper + Crane, Mott and Prince, and High Heel Hero. I am very thankful for the opportunity to be a part of such a supportive and uplifting community of women!
