Shimmer & Shine: Stepping Out To Cure MS

I have been very fortunate to be working on the fundraising & sponsorship of an event in Boston benefitting Accelerated Cure. If you're in the Boston area on November 18th, please join me! I can promise you this will be a great evening of drinking&dancing with many fab auction items - as well as a runway walk off.

Did you know:
Multiple sclerosis, or MS, is a chronic demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system affecting over 400,000 people in the US and 2 million individuals worldwide. MS often results in severe disability including the inability to walk, impaired vision, or in some cases blindness, cognitive dysfunction, bladder and bowel problems, extreme fatigue and other serious symptoms. Unfortunately, no one knows what causes multiple sclerosis, there is no known cure for the disease, and treatments are modest at best. Most of you are related to, or know someone who has been affected by MS. I certainly do, thus developing a sincere interest in Accelerated Cure, an organization working with researchers worldwide to develop a sound understanding of the disease, & hopefully develop a cure! I encourage you to read more about Accelerated Cure here (it is pretty unique from other MS organizations!)

If you can't make it - I would be FOREVER grateful for your donation via my FirstGiving page

VMA Fashion Wins

I was definitely entertained by last nights' VMA's. JayZ + Kanye's performance, Beyonce's baby bump, & Chris Brown's unbelievable dance moves.  Unfortunately I wasn't too impressed with the red (black) carpet looks. Beyonce was best dressed (& glowing!) in Lanvin, while I've never seen Selena Gomez look better. Who were your picks for the night?

Winning looks:
Love love love the color -wish she did more with her hair.
Just the right amount of detail & leg while remaining age appropriate.
 Pretty sure Taylor Lautner would look dapper wearing a potato sack.
 Foster The People - all so handsome.
 Demi Lovato - just a liiiiitle too boob-a-licious, but overall I like the dress.  Maybe she should've gone up half a size?
 Kim K in a gunmetal floor length backless gown.  Love.
 Tyler Hoechlin I may have added because he is a total babe.  TOTAL babe.  I think I'm in love??
Zoe Saldana in Barbara Bui. Boy does she need a cheeseburger. Do love the dress though!
 Maria Menounos in Amanada Wakeley. I love the double straps, but not sold on the large zipper down the front.
 Louise Roe in Tibi
