How We Can All Stand Together for International Women's Day
As you might have heard, today is International Women's Day. As a company that's for women, by women, we simply couldn't pass up the opportunity to celebrate the powerful females in our lives—and we want you to join in too. That's why we've launched the #WeAreWomen campaign, to turn the spotlight on inspiring women in our local and international communities.
"As an entrepreneur, I think it's critical that our business supports and empowers women," says Who What Wear co-founder Hillary Kerr. "On March 8, that means we will proudly support International Women's Day to recognise the achievements and contributions of women. I hope that with our #WeAreWomen campaign, our efforts will remind the world that women are stronger together and demand that our voices are heard."
So how can you participate? Nominate the inspirational woman in your life by using the #WeAreWomen hashtag and tagging her on Instagram. If someone nominates you, tag someone else to keep the momentum going. We can't wait to learn about the strong females in your life—see you on Instagram!

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
