Happy Friday! Today I want to share some snaps from last week's blogger brunch event I hosted with YMI and a little giveaway opportunity for you guys at the end of the post. Before you scroll all the way down (ha!) I just want to share a personal note. As an LA blogger, I'll admit that event invites overload our inboxes on a weekly basis. I knew when it came time to planning my own, there was a possibility that girls couldn't make it. I am so humbled by the turn out of this event. It was special to me from the location and details to the amazing girls who made it out to celebrate the YMI residency with me. I could not ask for more!I started the brunch by raising a toast to all of these amazing women you see here in the pic. Over 30 people made it out on a Friday morning and I seriously was blown away with the turn out!! The fact that these ladies came all the way to downtown on a Friday to celebrate my residency with YMI, meant so much to me.
Zinc gave us a huge room to set up our blogger brunch which quickly filled over 30 people! It was so cool looking into the space and seeing everyone who came to support me. It's moments like these when I feel like I have to pinch myself. It was so incredible!
P.S. The food and sweets were AH-MAZING.
My face.. lol. Insert Meme?
The brunch party gave us all the perfect excuse to unwind, mingle and stuff our faces at the same time. We got the hashtag #YMISazan and #YMIJeans going where everyone started posting their pictures. I wish you guys could see bloggers at events. We're all on our phones trying to capture the perfect pictures for our Instagrams. LOL #bloggerprobs Regardless it was so nice getting to catch up with my BFFS!
Here are my Instas I took during the extravaganza for my Insta. Thank God for my hyperstretch skinnies I wore to the event. I ate so much!
Here are a few instas from some of my fave gals who made it out!
The hashtag #YMISazan got me thinking well, Why Am I Sazan? I don't know if I'll ever have a concrete answer to this because I'm evolving everyday. The more I'm learning and growing, the closer I'm getting to realizing my purpose. It's a journey with of course tons of incredible people who help shape me. It's a bittersweet feeling when I'm at these events and I can't physically celebrate my accomplishments with all of my amazing followers (YOU!) who deserve the most credit. I wouldn't be able to do what I'm doing if I didn't have an amazing audience to entertain. As my cyber family continues to grow, I am motivated to do bigger and better things for you guys. You guys are my besties!!!!In celebration of YOU, I am giving away 3 blogger babes gift bags today for Freebie Friday from the event. These bags are filled with YMI goodies as well as some extra freebies. I'm also going to include a personal note from me to you. :) I made it really easy for you guys to enter. Details below.
