I still occasionally write about local fashion and style for 7×7.com. A recent post about a butcher’s daughter, a local boutique and a lovely L.A. jewelry line.

In just under two weeks, I’ll be leading a Fashion Blogging 101 workshop at San Francisco’s Renaissance Center for Entrepreneurship. If you’re interested in learning more about the many ways fashion blogging may benefit your business, fashion label or just enhance your otherwise stylish existence, please come join me for the evening.
Other than learning about fashion blogging, the workshop will be a chance to network with other local fashion business owners and entrepreneurs.
While much of the workshop will focus on fashion blogging, other topics that will be touched upon include reaching the media, social media and marketing your brand in general – all things that dovetail with fashion blogging.
Hope to see you there!
