Bloomingdale's 'In Her Shoes' event aims to inspire and empower women through hosting a series of feminist panels that will focus on topics that surround modern womanhood.
Kicking off this series is a discussion about motherhood. Taking place at Bloomingdale's New York City flagship, this talk will serve as a safe space where women can discuss all things related to motherhood, including finding a balance between work and life at-home as well as other heavy-hitting topics.
This event came into fruition following a partnership between designer Rebecca Minkoff and a "mom social network" called Peanut. The series launches on May 3rd and serves as the department stores efforts to demonstrate its core values.
