Boy Meets FIT Girl!
October 20, 2010
Yesterday I was asked to speak to FIT's Merchandising Society. I'm not going to lie, I was a bit nervous because I heard over 100+ students would be attending... eeeekk! My last speaking engagement was over a year ago at the Learning Annex, so I was feeling a little out of practice. But once I got there and saw all of the fashionable and stylish students I felt right at home!


At the end of the panel there was a meet and greet with the students, and I chatted with a lot of eager fashionistas looking forward to beginning their careers. I was so honored when they came up to me and told me I was their favorite speaker and how much they loved the brand and how they were inspired by my story. This, to me, made my day. As my blog states, I am here to inspire and teach, and I felt that I was giving back and doing what I have always set out to do.

We also checked out FIT's Style Shop with the amazing co-managers Shelby Skinner & Jacquelyn Miranda (which in the past carried Boy Meets Girl® and will be doing some collaborations with Boy Meets Girl® again soon!). The shop was adorable, full of yummy pieces: hand made jewelry, vintage jackets, handbags and lots more!
I wanted to buy everything
;)
I did get a fabu ring that I will be rocking in some pictures soon!
again, it was an honor to be asked to speak to the students and honestly if I could do it every week I would. I was so impressed by these FIT students and how much they love what they are learning and doing. Thank you for inspiring me too!
