LOFT Awareness

As you all know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I'm thrilled to be supporting LOFT in their efforts to support research for a cure! Every October, they collaborate with jewelry designers to create a piece that symbolizes how we as a community are linked to fighting breast cancer and raising awareness! $5 from every sale of this bracelet will go directly to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. I styled up the Bow Bangle designed by Rachel Leigh! Be sure to like their Facebook page to see the ways other bloggers styled the items.

Phew, I'm feeling super behind on everything right now. Brett went to Florida for the weekend for Fest, so being without him at home has been really strange feeling! Especially on Halloween weekend. When I was in New York, I really missed him... but not like this. I keep going to his closet and burying my face in his clothes hoping that I smell him - haha! (Really lame, I know.) It's just sad. I can't wait until he comes home.

I cannot believe October is almost done. My favorite month. It flew by so so fast. I didn't get half the posts I wanted to get done! Thank goodness we've had really odd weather, so most of the trees are still in full color and some are just starting to turn! I'll definitely have a ton more opportunity to get fall color posts in November. I'm really looking forward to it.

Outfit details:
Corningstone dress c/o ModCloth
Betsey Johnson tights
Forever 21 belt
Urban Outfitters t-strap heels

You're so darn cute Tieka! I love how you matched the gold buttons to the bracelet. It's the little things! hehe.
My boyfriend was planning on going to the Fest as well but he didn't get a ticket before they sold out quickly. I would have been super sad without him so I understand missing him so much!

In January, my husband went to Denver for a week to visit his mom (we live in RI) and went to a Nuggets/Celtics game- I watched the game and every time he came on TV I cried and criiiiiiied! haha! I hate when he's away! Hope Brett gets home soon :)

That bracelet is very cute! And such a great cause!

I feel the same when my husband is away, it's like something is missing! We used to travel so much for work and It's definitely a blessing that we don"t any more. Lovers should be together!

I hope Brett is back soon !!

Have a good start to the week Tieka!

Your outfits are so cute! I was wondering if you are going to be at Hour Detroit's Best Dressed Party on Nov. 16th? Here's more info about it: http://www.hourdetroit.com/Hour-Detroit/Best-Dressed-Party-Tickets/

Nikki said...

you look good. i wish i could pull off the outfits you wear.

i know what it feels like to miss your spouse. it seems like you wouldn't survive as a military wife. he will be back ridiculously soon, you will be ok.

The bracelet has the cutest design. But, that doesn't really matter, the cause behind is too important to not support it.

Hannah said...

I can't believe October is over too! It's crazy! There are still some areas here with pretty Fall leaves, but they're falling pretty quickly now because of the colder weather! Anyways I adore your polka dot dress! You look absolutely adorable Tieka! :D

eleanor said...

I always miss Morne WAY more when he goes out of town, than when I go away without him. What's up with that?! I guess the person that goes away is always having more fun!

This outfit is too pretty. I always love when you wear those shoes and that dress is the sweetest!
