Pink Day!

Betsey Johnson has declared today Pink Day!  
How are you celebrating?


I have some mad love for Betsey Johnson.  
When I interviewed one of her San Francisco store mangers, Alice Johnson, on the blog the CFO emailed the link to the ENTIRE company.  
They were so tickled "pink" that their employee was being interviewed on Dancing Branflakes.  
I wanted to be like, 
Wait!  You've got it all wrong!  I'm the one who's completely humbled that you even care!

But, of course, they cared because it concerned one of their very own.
She treats her employees like family and they are thoroughly supportive of one another.
Almost everyone one of her employees (and perhaps Betsey herself) visited the blog to read the interview.
 That's right... that day Dancing Branflakes got 600 extra readers.  
And I'm sure they were all wearing pink.
See the interview here.

I hope you get a chance to celebrate pink today!

How did you know pink was my absolute favorite color? Hope you're having a good day! :)

pink day? well i guess i'll have to pull out my pink bow and earrings. how fun! :) also fun - your interview with alice johnson! as far as corporations and the design world go, betsey johnson sounds like one of the most fun places to work. i suppose that's not too surprising when you think about how betsey johnson clothes are like parties that you can wear, but in this day of cut-throat competition and money being the bottom line, it's so refreshing to hear about a company that values their employees like this.

It actually is national pink day. My friend over at www.pinksuedeshoe.com has been having a pink week. Today she's hosting a blog party with all sorts of pink posts throughout the day. Check it out if you like pink. :)

Natalie Nicole said...

The moment I saw Pink Day was the title yesterday, I had to grab my adorable bright pink dress from last summer and put a few curls in my hair. There's something so absolutely fun about pink~

Brandi {not your average ordinary} said...

The only thing pink about me yesterday was my skin. I need to remember to put on sunblock when I drive. (It's not too bad.) But a national pink day -- we definitely need one of those!
