The sun is setting on Rock Your Rack

Today marks the last day of Rock Your Rack which means you only have about 8 more hours to get over and grab some amazing items, at fantastic prices all for an amazing cause!  This is the 4th Annual Rock Your Rack, presented by Models Giving Back, with a portion of all sales going to benefit the National Breast Cancer Foundation.  With tons of designers offering at least two items, as well as a 10L hunt, you are sure to find some things that just jump off the hangers and into your closet!  For my final post I did something a bit different, but I got a bit behind this past week with the net being hit or miss, so to make sure I get attention to as many creators as I can, I am featuring two and their releases for the event!


This adorable Romper is exclusively available at the event from Chobani and comes in a variety of colors with matching vine accent heels.  The fit is fantastic and I just LOVE these shoes!  Toss on a long cardigan and this goes from warm sunny days, to the cool Autumn nights, making it a perfect addition to your closet!  But I haven't found many things for the event that don't need to be in your closet, or that aren't incredibly versatile, and I don't know about you, but I love shopping for a cause, because there is no guilt later!  Which means you need to check out all the items available until tonight, including this stunning new ensemble from WICKED, also an exclusive to Rock Your Rack.


The Peyton ensemble comes complete with jewelry, boots, jacket and dress, meaning you don't have to go digging through your inventory to find things to mix and match together when in a hurry, instead you can toss on this outfit and off you go to whatever your next adventure is on the grid.  I absolutely adore these stiletto booties and how they compliment the outfit perfectly, considering that most times I HATE boots with skirts, but these happen to be a great accent and a MUST HAVE this Fall so HURRY to Rock Your Rack, you won't be disappointed, unless of course you let the night slip by without a stop by the event!

Breast cancer is one of the leading health crises for women. 1 in 8 women, and an every increasing percentage of men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is currently no known cure for breast cancer, and its early diagnosis is critical to survival.

Models Giving Back is pleased to present Rock Your Rack, an annual fundraising event combining the best of SL Music and Fashion to support the work of breast cancer charities and raise awareness for early detection which is critical to a positive outcome for this devastating disease.

This year's 4th annual event will support the National Breast Cancer Foundation providing mammograms, education, support and early detection services to anyone in need.

The 2016 Event is all together on one sim and involves 63 designers including 9 Gold sponsors:  AlaFolie, Athena Couture, Dulce Secrets, Emerald Couture, Empyrean Forge, LaVian & Co, phedora, Prism and Kultivate Magazine.  Along with these designers,  14 DJ's, 11 Live Musicians, 22 2D/3D artists, and 22 models will participate in the two week long event.

Events during the fundraiser include 9 fashion shows, 11 live musical concerts,  12 DJ dance parties, a 10L Hunt,  Two Silent Auction areas, an Art Exhibit organized by Kultivate magazine, Art Auction and 7Seas Fishing Tournaments.  Designers will be providing exclusive creations with 100% of the sales of those items going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation along with a fine selection of the newest and most popular designs donating a percentage as well.

To date the agency has partnered with dozens of designers and provided models for runway, print and other functions that support charities around SL.

About the National Breast Cancer Foundation

The National Breast Cancer Foundation was founded in 1991 by breast cancer survivor, Janelle Hail.  She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1980 at the age of 34.  At the time of her diagnosis, there was little information about the disease, and she was forced to make a decision about her health with few options.  After her treatment, Janelle made a commitment to help women around the world by educating them about breast cancer and the importance of early detection.  NBCF’s mission is to save lives through early detection and to provide mammograms for those in need.  This mission includes increasing awareness through education, providing diagnostic breast care services for those in need, and providing nurturing support services.
