Girlawhirl.com Announces the Launch of its ‘Women Firsts’ in History Series

NEW YORK, NY (PRLEAP) May 24 2006)—Girlawhirl™.com, the first website/homepage for women is now highlighting the ‘firsts’ of other great women in history. Already known for sharing the many great ideas, products and fashions she discovers every day, globetrotting Girlawhirl is now out to let everyone in on the accomplishments of women throughout history!

From political firsts, like Victoria Woodhull’s run for the Oval Office back in 1872, to the soaring heights Harriet Quimby reached in her signature purple satin flying suit as the first licensed female pilot in 1911, Girlawhirl wants women everywhere to learn about the ‘firsts’ of those who have come before!

And because Girlawhirl is first and foremost a woman of today, look for features on fashionable firsts – like Coco Chanel making black a color of fashion for the first time with her classic little black dress.

From the courtroom to the tennis court, Girlawhirl is dishing out the info on great women in history!
