Get Her List, Check it Twice — All Ann Taylor stores, including the one at Reston Town Center, are hosting a men’s shopping night Thursday for 6 to 9 p.m. Stop by and let stylists help select gifts for the woman in your life (she can even create an online wish list ahead of time). There will be drinks – and the guys also get a pocket square along with their purchase and a chance to to win a trip for two to Las Vegas.  [Ann Taylor]
