RachMartino: M First PR Event: ReFashioner

Hey everyone! So my life in New York has been such a whirlwind. I moved into my amazing apartment in Williamsburg, Brooklyn just about a month ago and my whole life has been turned upside down. I work part-time at Small Girls PR as a self-described #petite publicist. I also write for Fashism, which is a great job. I have been an active use on their site for over 2 years now, so definitely check it out! I write the articles for their blog. If you are interested in knowing more about my work, follow my new tumblr account where I detail more about my career adventures. So this past Sunday I had my first official PR event! The event was for ReFashioner, an It's an amazing new site that's basically a curated designer swap meet! Basically you are able to buy incredible designer duds from some of New York's most amazing closets from anywhere!

The event was at Gleason's Gym, a world-famous boxing gym in Brooklyn. It's been home to some of the most incredible boxers and moving about boxing as well. The founder of ReFashioner, Kate Sekules is a world-famous boxer as well and the site was the perfect place to launch the site as well as celebrate her book, A Boxer's Heart. The event was a huge success! There were 300 people there enjoying a boxing match, a violent ballet number by Streb dance company as well as some delicious drinks including Knockout Punch. A friend of mine from college, Alex Crawford, also shot some lovely photos in the ring for a very unique photo booth! It was such a fun night. Be sure to check out the website for some incredible designer fashion for less! Photos c/o Guest of a Guest.
