There’s nothing that kicks off a new fall season better than a shiny new pair of stylish, warm, high-quality boots, and Sorel certainly fits that description! Come and pay a visit to the Sorel Flagship Store in New York City’s Meatpacking District (located at 345 West 14th Street) this Thursday, October 8th from 7-9pm for the launch party, a chance to check out the latest and greatest in the brand’s footwear offerings for women and men, plus a look at the debut of the apparel collection. I can’t wait to check out the newest offerings, and if the website is any indication, the Conquest Carly Moto Jacket in Olive Green and Major Low Premium Print Bootie are on my must-have list!

The
launch party is hosted by costume designer Jenn Rogien, who has most recently
created the costumes for the HBO hit series “GIRLS,” and equally as popular Netflix original series
“Orange is the New Black.” The ultra cool, stylish, and personable Rogien will also be giving a short talk and Q&A session during the event, so if there’s anything you’ve ever wanted to ask a costumer designer of a hit show…now’s your chance !
I hope to see you there!
