A forever in blue jeans babe, that's how we like to be. And what better time to purchase your winter cache of denim than at a party to fete the store that stocks your trusty everyday wear. Kick off the holiday season while you shop and sip- cocktails will be served up courtesy of Hangar 1 Vodka and Hi*Ball Tonic (tasty tonic water that gives you extra pep.) 15% of sales from the evening will go to Toys for Tots and guests are encouraged to bring toys to the event. PS: From now until Christmas when you donate a toy at the Bar you will receive 15% off of your purchase (*excluding the eve of the party.)
