Where Success is a Decision and Inpiration is Discovered...
(1888PressRelease) June 29, 2013 - Toronto, Ontario - Attitude Anonymous, a company that inspires, encourages and influences positive attitude, graciously organized the "Girls Night Out-Free Yourself" event that hosted a little over 150 members from Fiercely Fearless Females of Toronto.
The evening began with a purple carpet and velvet rope outside of The Local Company at 511 Danforth Ave in downtown Toronto. Fabulous women arrived and were greeted with a glass of champagne and escorted inside by gorgeous male models. Inside they dressed in tiaras and boas, glowing bracelets, and blinking rings and posed for fabulous pictures with cowboy hats and big sunglasses.
As the night progressed, there was lots of networking, silent auctioning, and ticket raffles where all proceeds went to Dress for Success Toronto - a charity that promotes the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.
Michell Smith and Julie Edmonds were the spokeswomen for the evening introducing Dress for Success and spoke about women that are here to light the world on fire and paid homage to all the women of FFF. They handed out colored tiaras that represented each person as a fabulous working mother, a fabulous single lady or anyone fabulous in between!
Michell Smith, president of Attitude Anonymous and Fiercely Fearless Females organizer said, "We had 6 weeks to pull this off! It was crazy and fun and we had tons of great people involved! I am so happy how many women showed up for our flagship event" Julie Edmonds, co-organizer who resides in S. Florida agreed, "There were so many great people that pulled together to make this event a hit and big props to Michell!"
The MC for the evening, Rob Pagetto of 30th Street Studios generously donated his time for the evening in order to help such a great cause. He got the crowd rallied up with his hilarious commentary and did a wonderful job with the winners of the raffle and the silent auction.
The two main event planners were Voula Nastas from Ready or Not Events and Joanna Efpatridis from Yorkville Weddings. "Special thanks to Voula and Joanna. They worked nonstop around the clock to make this event a first class, top notch event! I would recommend them anyday for any event anyone has!" Michell said. "Also thanks to Rob Pagetto, our MC, and to Chris Porto of Christoper Porto Photography and John Darmody of livemedia for their efforts during the evening. Tim Lem, Peter and the staff at Local Company know how to treat their guests! Everyone did such a tremendous job!"
