Last Chance: Get your tickets for Shecky’s Girls Night Out
Last night at Shecky's Girls Night Out was awesome! I'll post a more detailed rundown of the event later, but I just wanted to remind everyone that tonight is its last night in Dallas! Tickets are still 50% off and can be purchased through my icon on the right! It's definitely worth checking out. And if you end up going, have fun!
Race for the Cure
Yesterday I volunteered with a group of friends at Race for the Cure. The massiveness of the event was awe-inspiring. We arrived before dawn and were met by flocks of people dressed in their pink outfits, ready to volunteer or race. Lucky for me, I am a morning person and wasn't too droopy-eyed all morning. It was fun distributing pink lanyards as well as checking out the various organizations and companies that supported the Susan G. Komen foundation. My friends and I received so much literature on breast cancer as well as a ton of freebies like koozies, lip balms, hats, and bags. On of the highlights of volunteering was seeing the pink-themed costumes that people created.

I will definitely be blogging the awesome time I have there; their free goodie bags are legendary enough to warrant their own post later. But I will also be sharing the awesome fashion and beauty that I score there. Hopefully, by then my camera will be working by then!
