All Things Royale:SD at Syrah Wine Parlor 10/15

A few months ago we participated in an event called All Things Royale down in San Diego. Well looks like it was a hit because they are doing a Holiday Edition on October 15, 2009.

Here are the deets:
Date: Thursday, October 15, 2009
Time: 6- 9pm
Location: Vin de Syrah Wine Parlor 5th Ave right below Dakota Grill

15 of SD’s hottest boutiques, spas, salons and designers will be getting together for an evening of amazing deals and steals. JemeRoyale has booked everything from hand massages, clothing, jewelry and even a pilates studio offering special pricing so you can look good thru the holdiays!

Moderne will be there with all their latest gems -of course at amazing prices. We will even have some items marked at a ridiculous price.. So make sure you keep following up about our upcoming ATR event in SD.
Did we mention that this event is benefiting a great San Diego cause: South Bay Community Services. SBCS is a great charity that provides assistance for victims of domestic violence. We can all use a little extra love and attention, especially during the holidays, so I hope you will be there to check it out.

Be Moderne: Ronda's Dream Center

Be Noticed. Be Moderne.
Rock your Moderne tank.

Julia, Founder of Ronda's Dream Center (http://rondasdreamcenter.org) and a dear friend sent me this snap shot of her rocking her BE MODERNE tank!

Julia is the proud founder of a local Southern California non-profit, RONDA'S DREAM CENTER. Her vision is to create an amazing, one of a kind, creative visual therapy center.

Imagine being unable to go to the ocean, see the flowers bloom, or watch the snow fall. Would you agree that you would be missing out on some of the beauty that is "life"? For many people, this is a reality, and Ronda's Dream Center is part of the solution.

Ronda's Dream Center aims to create a safe environment for developmentally disabled individuals by providing them 360 degrees of visual stimulation.

Moderne is so happy to be part of the Ronda's Dream Center family and can't wait to see the final product. To learn more about this amazing project, please visit http://rondasdreamcenter.org.

Show some love
