Its always amazing to see fashion doing its part for worthy causes. Especially breast cancer, a disease that is so close to so many of us. If anything fashion supporting the battle against breast cancer makes sense, an important part of a woman's every day life doing its part to stop something that shouldn't be part of our every day lives at all.
Another brand that combines fashion with the fight against breast cancer is Cashmere. They have an annual fashion show fundraiser where pieces created from the Cashmere product are shown. If you haven't heard of it or seen this years collection you should http://www.cashmere.ca A great concept doing great things for women and this important cause.
