I just got back from a quick but fabulous trip to Tampa for a Preppy Podcast Live Panel with Dillards’ Coterie Brands. I always love these panels as Dillards is truly innovative in spotlighting these small brands and all of the brand’s founders are so inspiring. Plus, it’s fun meeting listeners!
The event was at the gorgeous venue The Spiral Staircase. It was the perfect backdrop to shop and hear from these founders.
I stayed at the Epicurean Hotel which is conveniently located across from the icon Bern’s Steakhouse. The hotel is food and drink oriented with 2 restaurants on property, a Bern’s wineshop filled with premium wines from around the world and even a built-in ice bucket in the desks of the guests room!
While I was in town I worked by the hotel’s pool, stopped by the local Dillards for some shopping, got a blowout at Drybar had lunch at Oxford Exchange. It was a quick but great trip!
