October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month: #GlamuletPinkOctober

October has an addition to its orange and black color scheme this month and it’s pink. I think the majority of us have been affected by cancer whether it was losing someone to it or having to see someone fight through it. It’s touched so man people’s lives and we are still trying to find a cure. In case you missed it, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Namely, this October is time to raise as much awareness as possible.Breast Cancer is the 2nd deadliest cause of death for women around the world. By 2050, no woman should die of breast cancer.  This isn’t something that can be done alone or overnight. While it might seem like a huge cause, every little bit counts. One way to do that is by wearing jewelry that represents the cause and helps fund research. Yeah, buying a charm bracelet won’t cure cancer, but every little bit counts for something.

Glamulet’s combined gorgeous jewelry with raising awareness in their Pink October Campaign. I definitely recommend checking out what they have to offer on their site, they have some seriously gorgeous limited edition charms. They’re mix and match and for every charm purchased, 50% of sales go towards a charity fund for breast cancer. Shopping, pretty jewelry and helping an important cause? Perfect.

Here are some of  my favorite picks of Glamulet’s mix and match charms:

Heart Lock & Key // Pink Ribbon // Ying-Yang

Wouldn’t those make a beautiful bracelet? The best part of these charms is that they are entirely mix and match. You can use different charms that match your outfit or represent different aspects of your life.

Gorgeous jewelry and fund raising to an excellent cause, what could be better than that? Join #GlamuletPinkOctober and let’s make some change!

OOTD:// Casual B-List Celebrity Funeral - eyeliner wings & pretty things

So this is my first shot at an actual outfit of the day post–mostly because I was feeling my outfit, the weather was beautiful and my roommate was available to humor me by playing fashion photographer.

I like to call this outfit “Casual B-List Celebrity Funeral” because that’s where I felt like I was going. I felt glamorously chic but the colors were dreadfully funeral-ready. Black and burgundy are two of my favorite fall colors–that trend will never stop for me.

So here are some photos for my OOTD (namely, me posing around campus trying to be fashion blogger-esque).
