Champagne Day is on October 21, 2016. This all day global event celebrates all things Champagne, the sparkling wine that comes only from Champagne, France. People will be blogging, tweeting, posting and sharing their photos, videos and experiences online between now and the all day celebration.  If you are a fashionista or a beauty girl and you read here, it’s reasonable to assume that you love bubbles.
