She now has over twenty interns in various cities and four full-time staff members. Today, her main audience is on The Shade Room’s Instagram account (@theshaderoom) boasting over 5 million followers.

Guests enjoyed a beautiful view of the Hollywood hills while sitting poolside with delicious summer cocktails and cupcakes. It was definitely a night to remember. |
