Today I had the opportunity to join 50 fabulous women in the District to celebrate
Jones New York and their newest brand Ambassador, former White House Secretary Dee Dee Myers. Jones New York , unveiled the next phase of the Empowering Your Confidence campaign, celebrating over 40 years of dressing women for success in each of life's moments.

Guest included Philippa Hughes, Rachel Cothran, Nadine Namoff, Sara Beth Walsh, Kristin Guiter, Jacqueline Corbett and Nikki Schwab.
We were treated to lunch at the always posh Adour at the St. Regis and guests departed with the newest issue of Vanity Fair, the Little Black Book and an Easy Care white shirt care of Jones New York.

The regional 'Power Women of D.C.' campaign, which launched exclusively in Washington, D.C., highlights five prominent local, successful women in their respective workplaces. Photographed by Norman Jean Roy, the campaign features Brand Ambassador Dee Dee Myers, as well as EVP of Patient Care at The Children's Hospital Nellie Robinson, Emmy Award-winning journalist Sheila Brooks, and Georgetown Cupcake's Sophie LaMontage and Katherine Kallinis.

Jones New York sought out women who have built, created, and nurtured businesses, ideas, and people -- the embodiment of empowerment and confidence. I was thrilled to be among their ranks and you'll catch a photo recap below with the newest images from the campaign.
