The incredible girls (Kate!) at MZ Wallace recently asked me to participate in the #MZWoman campaign with my best friend, Ali. They invited us into their lofty, Soho office, gave us wine and cheese, had a team to do our hair and make up and sent us home with bags to wear on the trip we were taking together to attend Coachella. Needless to say, it was a fun day.

They asked us to answer some questions and I'm excited to share those with you today, along with my answers and...tell you what you can typically find in my bag...

MZ Wallace: Why is it important to have girlfriends in your life? Seri: My girlfriends are so important to me because they are always there to listen to the good + the bad. We laugh together, cry together and I wouldn’t trade them for anything in the world. 

MZ Wallace: What is your favorite thing to do with your girlfriends? Seri: DRINK WINE and talk.

MZ Wallace: What's your favorite MZ Wallace bag for the work week? For the weekend Seri: The Crosby Traveler is the best for the work week.  It can hold all my folders and laptop and my favorite part is the cross body strap so I can keep my hands free for coffee and my cell phone.  For the weekend, I love the Paige. It's small and lightweight but holds a good amount so I can still carry the necessities while out in the evening. Since this shoot my bag SOLD OUT!  I picked a good one - obvi. More of these types of bags in other fab shapes/sizes are available!

MZ Wallace: How do you balance making time for your girlfriends with your busy career and/or family schedules? Seri: Time for my girlfriends is a must. It’s never easy to fit everyone and everything into my schedule but I always carve out the time at least once or twice a month so I can catch up with my best gal pals. This sometimes means I have to work later into the night to get everything in a day done but it’s always worth it. The work/life balance is key and that includes family AND friends!

MZ Wallace: If we open your bag up today, what will we find inside? Seri: CANDY, Hand & Face wipes, My Wallet, MAC Lipstick, my keys, pack of tissues, a pencil, pack of gum, glasses and a phone charger.

Thank you MZ Wallace for inviting me to be a part of this super fun campaign!
