Take out your pink ribbons – I have – because October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it’s our job as women to help eradicate this disease! In the US alone, 1 out of every 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and 1 in 35 women will die from the terribly invasive disease. And girls, the disease doesn’t just attack us; it can also be contracted by your man. So we all need to stay aware of screening techniques to help ensure early detection when possible. These statistics sound grim, so it’s in everyone’s best interests to support Breast Cancer Awareness - cancer is definitely not a picky eater. Thank goodness so many companies and individuals champion the cause and raise significant awareness and funds. Here are two companies that are championing the cause and some of my recommendations on how to raise awareness on a local, one-to-one level. All-American brand Ralph Lauren has a Pink Pony collection – yes, the classic Polo icon is pink! Proceeds from sales of items in the collection are designated into the Pink Pony Fund and then distributed to charities around the world in support of breast cancer research, as well as providing screening and education to parts of the world where that is not readily available.

SwimSpot went looking for the best-of-the-best upcoming stylistas, and boy, oh boy, did we find them! Over 740 entered the Postcards from the Beach contest hosted by Polyvore and sponsored by SwimSpot.com. Never heard of Polyvore? Check out the site; one of the fastest growing on the WWW, tapping into the personal stylist in each of us. To enter the contest, each “postcard,” or style board submitted, had to feature a Swimspot suit, athletic gear, or a cover-up. With a bit of creativity five fashionistas were crowned winners, and given VIP cards for a Spring Break shopping spree!
A Postcard from Greece took the Gold. From the Luxe by Lisa Vogel collection, this fashionista chose the Met Tankini Top and String Bottom paired with the Ella Moss Elsie Swimsuit Cover-Up Tunic. The whole look she pulled together was light and airy and a perfect ensemble for this year’s swim season. Tuchi(: - who was the mastermind behind this creative piece - received a $500 VIP card. Talk about a shopping spree!
