With it being Fashion Week, all attention is focused on the runways at the tents, presentations that are outside of Bryant Park and so much more. I love this time of year as it makes me think of the spring/summer being closer together, but I'm also thinking of another runway that is even more impacting in terms of helping so many that fight every day! On April 30th, St Jude Children's Research Hospital will present the Design Cares fashion show which is a collaboration of so many designers (including my fave Diane Von Furstenburg) whose pieces will hit the runways and will later be auctioned off in order to benefit pediatric cancer research. The sketch above is a custom couture gown for Design Cares by Maggie Norris Couture which is being donated for this worthy cause. I think this is such an important cause and Kitten Lounge (along with other sites that I write for) will keep you in the loop on this event up to the day (and of course the day after). There are so many amazing stories and interests that are associated with this amazing event, that it would be unfair to share it within one post. Definitely stay in touch as Kitten Lounge presents more posts about this and of course, you can see this event first hand by purchasing tickets to attend!

With Fashion Week getting closer to the end, it was important to us to also launch our Pink Lounge this week! The Pink Lounge is a shop where you will find various products where a portion of the proceeds will go to the fight against and the awareness of Breast Cancer. We know that there are various products that are available; however, the aim of this shop is to attempt to centralize these items so that you can see them in one place. Although this will not be a comprehensive list, I am excited to partner with those that would like to have their work added to this growing list. The Pink Lounge will be up from now through November 15th! I look forward to adding to this shop and if you would like to participate, you can click here!
