"Breast Cancer Awareness Month"


For those of you who don't know; October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In support of the cause I wanted to help my blogging buddy Styles in his effort to raise awareness & contribute to the cure. To show your support we're asking that you wear a pink item of clothing or accessory on TODAY, October 16th and make a donation of $5 or more to the Susan G. Komen Foundation; Passionately Pink for the Cure.

Breast Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in Women. Although studies have shown the disease to be more common in women over the age of 40; It has no preference in age nor race. My grandmother was diagnosed @ the age of 71; she had to undergo a double mastectomy & I feel so fortunate to still have her in my life because there have been so many who have fallen victim to the disease.


More cool ways to show your support...

One of my fave sites is Save The Tata's, they have clothes & accessories for women & men. And the proceeds go to research in finding the cure.



Cute...
