KDHamptons Fashion: Look Pretty in Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and “In support, many sport and fashion brands like ASICS, RALPH LAUREN, the NFL, NEW BALANCE and TORY BURCH, just to name a few, have partnered with different charities to create products of which a portion of the sales go to breast cancer research,” shares KDHamptons contributing editor Claudia Lebenthal. “It’s a great time to wear this commemorative color in support of family, friends, and those we don’t know at all, to show we are all on the same team. So whether walking or running, skiing or snowboarding, biking or skating, punch it up with some pink and let’s all do our part to support this critical cause!”
