Between pumpkin spice overload, costume chaos, and weather worth curling up under a blanket for, October’s already pretty memorable — but for us, it’s personal. Ever since Katie’s breast cancer diagnosis, this month has carried extra meaning. While we encourage supporting breast cancer research all year, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, some of your (and Katie’s) favorite brands — like Ralph Lauren, Easy Spirit, and Vera Bradley — pull out all the stops to offer ways to shop while supporting a good cause. This year, as you settle into the season, consider putting your purchases to good use.
Some of the best fashion, accessory, and wellness brands are donating a percentage of proceeds from certain products to breast cancer research and advocacy organizations, like Shoes for a Cure, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and Stand Up To Cancer, among others. Katie was even the inspiration behind a custom sweater bearing a very important message for you and your loved ones.
Whether you want to update your footwear collection, stock up on holiday gifts, or add a hot pink touch to your wardrobe, rest assured that you can shop all of these products while also making a difference.
