Who said shopping could not be beneficial? The emergence of many "cause based" clothing companies have become mainstream in the recent few years, with brands like Toms and their now global campaign charity movement One for One has made giving back not only cool, but fashionable. The mission behind the One for One organization, is for each pair of Toms shoes sold a pair of shoes will be donated to a Child in need, and the idea has went viral. Today Toms has donated over 10 MILLION pairs of shoes worldwide. The giving has evolved, not only do they give shoes, but now Toms also donate glasses to children in need. To get the full scope of the good things going on at Toms check out the link here to go to their website. Speaking of glasses check out Warby Parker and their latest winter collection of vintage frames. They also follow the same mindset of "buy one, give one" their mission at WP is simple. "Do Good". The Warby Parker approach is a bit different from the above mentioned company Toms, because their platform actually gives low income entrepreneurs in developing countries the skills to start their own business of selling eye-wear. So just from purchasing a pair of these vintage, modern, and sophisticated specs could actually grant an individual their livelihood and the ability to gift someone the pleasure of vision..isn't that a sight to see. The feel good approach of consumerism doesn't stop there with the inclusion of 1:Face Charity Watch a cause based watch company. The mission behind the 1:Face brand is many. Your purchase of one of their color-coded cause watches can be beneficial to many social problems such as: Water, Hunger, AIDS, Cancer, Environment, Breast Cancer, and Education. To check out these sleek, modern and vibrant watches go to 1:Face Charity Watch website in this link shown here to get the rundown on the countdown to help save the world one watch at a time. So be a cheerful giver this holiday season by truly giving a gift that keeps on giving world wide.

Black, White, and Metallic Party Dresses #NYE14

Well the holidays are in full swing now, with Thanksgiving behind us. The Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals long gone.....The only thing left on the holiday to do list, after the annual gift giving season is none other than the BIGGEST PARTY OF THE YEAR. NEW YEARS EVE ! I'm a Black and White type of girl for these occasions. Real classic, vintage, old Hollywood type fashion, but I also enjoy the glitz and glamor of the holiday season too. Especially on New Years Eve you want to make sure to give a lasting impression and start the year off right turning heads, no correction breaking necks in jaw dropping designs. One thing to keep in mind though when dress shopping is to remember to dress accordingly to whats comfortable for YOU. Also what looks good on ones body type does not look good on all....I'm sorry. So do not let the one size fits all lie get you. One size fits most. Don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, and have fun most importantly. He...
