For as long as I’ve been in San Diego, I’ve never had the opportunity to visit The University Club, a members-only club at the Symphony Towers in downtown. So when the invitation came along for me to attend their ‘Tis The Season Shopping event, I jumped at it! We got to sip champagne and browse vendor booths from Fashion Valley Mall. The view of downtown from the club is beautiful. I was there after dark but I would imagine it’s a stunning place for sunset cocktails. It was a perfect way to get my holiday spirit sparked and get some gift ideas. I was particularly tempted by some gorgeous Chanel sunglasses but refrained. Can’t let the champagne do my spending! 😉
