Kendra Scott x The Carson Leslie Foundation




Come into Kendra Scott and shop to support cancer research tonight until 8 p.m. In the West Village! 20% of profits will go to benefit the Carson Leslie Foundation. Funds raised will go to research for finding a cure to pediatric cancer.




Some stats about pediatric cancer:

- 13,500 children diagnosed annually in the U.S, with an average of 36 children being diagnosed every day.

- 1 in 330 Americans develop cancer before their twentieth birthday, and ends their life at an average age of 8

- cancer is the #1 killer of children and claims the lives of more victims than asthma, AIDs, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, and congenital anomalies COMBINED.





Carson's journal about his fight for his life was published 6 days before his death and all proceeds from his book, Carry Me, are donated to finding a cure.


"Momma, I thought I was gonna make it. Don't let them bury me. Make sure they study those tumors. If those tumors can help some kid not die from cancer like I am, I'd like that; it's hard to have cancer. Make sure my book gets published."
Location: West Village 3699 McKinney Avenue, Dallas

WCW: Taylor Swift

...well I never thought this would happen, but you have to admit- T.Swift killed it while performing at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in London.   Taylor looked as though she too could be in Angel as she strutted down the runway in black lingeries with a sheer black lace overlay.  Oh hayyyyy, betch As the end of the year approaches, so does NYE meaning the time has come to start scoping out your look to ring in the New Year.  This year I'm starting to consider sheer black lace instead of the usual sequins.  Check out my picks below to get Taylor's look! Jarlo Noah Maxi Nightcap Clothing Dixie dress- ON SALE Lovers + Friends Catwalk dress Bardot Sienna Bralette  &  Skirt I saw T. Swift wearing black lingerie and lace, so I bought black lingerie and lace.

Pacific Escape: For Love & Lemons Spring 2015

Image
I feel like I've been waiting for the new For Love & Lemons lookbook to come out for an eternity.  Well at least since I've tried to decide which styles from the Fall and Holiday collection are lasting buys.    I mean, do I want to wait for the Antigua mini in a better color especially if my friend has already bought it in chartreause or claimed it in sapphire?? Bras can always be justified, but maybe not 6 of the same lacy one in different colors.  Priorities, people.   So here's what's on the way:  Summer Whites: Luna Maxi dress find it   HERE   Just when I told myself, "no more rompers"...  Red Hot: THIS. the NEW Antigua  sex.  Garden Isle lace dress find it   HERE New Additions:  ehh, they are really into this tropical (fruit) thing   this color...
