How to be IN for a good cause ?

Halloween just passed, which marks the end of October. I hope you had a great time...
Now, it is time to think about what's HOT for the month approaching. MOVEMBER
This is the month formerly known as November. It is actually during this month that men and women from all around the world join together to raise funds for men's health issues especially prostate cancer. The goal, for men, is to grow a Mo (moustache) for 30 days. Men who do it are called Mo Bros and they start Movember 1st clean shaven and grow their Mo for the rest of the month raising money along the way. You are probably asking yourself: how can women help ? Let me answer your question. Women who support Movember are then called Mo Sistas. They champion the Mo by supporting their Mo Bros, organizing events, leading a team and most importantly, spreading the message of men's health.

It is also important to know that beards and goatees are not accepted, moustache only. If you already have a moustache and want to participate, you could shave it off on Movember 1st and re-grow it throughout the month or you can do a “reverse Movember” by having people donate to you to shave it off at the end of the month.

Movember has charitable status in Canada and the funds raised through the Movember campaign go to Movember Canada, a national not for profit organization. The net funds are then committed to programs supporting prostate cancer initiatives run by Movember and through their men's health partner Prostate Cancer Canada.

Boys and girls, women and men, it is now time for you to participate. Here is a link to register where you will find all the information you need on Movember. http://ca.movember.com/

What am I going to where on thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving means mid-term break and mid-term break means a trip back home! For those, like me, who are going to their parents for the week-end or the week, are probably asking themselves what to pack. Don't forget that you will probably have a family diner and looking mature and responsible is actually important to show your parents that your collegian life is going well. Here is a list of the top 5 outfit options for Thanksgiving:

5. GIFTED ACCESSORIES

It's time to pull out old jewelries you received from your family through the years. Old earrings, pearls, bracelet, anything. The aunt or grand-mother that gave it to you will be pleased to see you still wear it.

4. AMAZING SHOES

How many times have you decided to not buy the shoes you were dreaming of because you realized how impractical they would be in an everyday life? Thanksgiving is the perfect chance to buy these perfect shoes and show your good taste while safely knowing you will be seated with your killing shoes most of the time.

3. TURTLENECKS
There is something amazing about the protective feeling of a turtleneck. Don't be shy..Just comfortable!

2. DRESS WITH STRAPS. NOT LOW CUT

Save your sexy cocktails dresses for your weekends in the city. Stick to more conservative dresses. Sometimes, outfits that you are comfortable in while standing can become a problem when siting..

1. WIDE LEG SLACKS

Show your family you really have grown up with the number one Thanksgiving fashion must have. Your mom and aunts will be impressed by how chic you've gotten!

What about YOU, what will you wear on Thanksgiving ? Share with us.

Be inspired by Serena and Blair's look, this is actually how they dress for a Thanksgiving family diner in Gossip Girl!

Happy holiday, Happy mid-term break!
