Now on to this month's theme: Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
October seems to be a month drawing awareness to many things - one of those being breast cancer. Remember to check your breasts regularly and know what is the normal for you. Also, if you are in the market for a wedding dress or looking for a place to donate yours, please check out the great organization Brides Against Breast Cancer. They have sales around the US throughout the year to help people impacted by cancer. I bought my wedding dress at a local sale and have also volunteered at the sale.
I own tons of pink stuff. "Pink is my signature color." I have no shortage of pink to wear, but had to go with this recently purchased dress from Torrid. I was drawn to the color and sleeve length and the fact that it would be perfect to wear with leggings and boots. Plus, it has pockets!
The dress came with this skinny black belt. I may actually wear a larger belt next time to balance the extra fabric in the bust. It just seemed to swallow me up in the top, but the bottom fit very well. I still enjoyed wearing the dress because it was comfortable without being too fussy or warm. I ran around the house all day giving friends and family tours of the house. :-)
