As many of you know, October is the month for Breast Cancer Awareness. There are many ways to support this month; giving donations at local markets, participating in the national walks, or purchasing anything affiliated with Breast Cancer. I decided to show my support by attending a fabulous night of fashion for a fabulous cause! The Celebration of life Breast Cancer Awareness fashion show not only celebrated the life of women who survived the disease, but the ticket that was purchased to enter is going toward finding a cure. I had the honor of listening to different women share their stories with such pride and dignity. I kept thinking to myself, wow now that's what you call strong! This is the lovely number I wore last night to the show, take a look!
Lace Dress Steps (similar here), Necklace (gift from a good friend), Clutch (Forever21) Stockings (Walmart), Pumps (Steve Madden)
I loved this dress choice for the fashion show in particular because, black is always chic and that was definitely the look I was going for. Lace itself is very sexy and my entire dress was lace, so to tone it down I wore sheer stockings. The gorgeous jewelry piece that I'm wearing is a gift from a dear friend of mine, which I thought would go perfect with this dress! I decided to wear nude pumps with my look to bring out the pearls in my necklace and the clutch was a matching pair to my shoes! Of course, I had to play it up with a red lip, and for my eyes a simple cat eye. Other great ways to have worn this look would be to wear red pumps without the necklace, as well as a pair of black pointy heels with an oxblood lip. Check out photos below of highlights from my night.
