Pink Shopping

by Karen Lynch

Man, this round up I’m doing is never ending. Today I’m going to focus on the retail stores that are committed to the cause as well. Of course, I’m totally skewing this list towards places I ADORE!

Here’s a favorite retail boutique: I worked at Ann Taylor once. I loved the style so my 40% discount sucked up my entire paycheck. So this Ann Cares About Women card caught my eye: Purchase the card for $25; receive 15% off any purchase made through 12/31/07 — Ann Taylor, Ann Taylor LOFT, Ann Taylor factory stores — even online at ANNTAYLOR.COM OR ANNTAYLORLOFT.COM (plus you get free shipping when you order online). 85% of the card’s price will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Then there’s the department store that I love to visit: Bloomingdale’s! You should see their Pink Boutique. Proceeds are going to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Plus they’ve got this little pink book packed with articles, illustrated by Marisa Acocella Marchetto. Love it!

As far as catalogs so … Red Envelope. I’d like almost anything from this one page: Think Pink. If you shop the Think Pink collection by the end of the month, 10% of the proceeds are going to the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Women’s Cancer Research Fund.FA6_179149_W_A.jpeg

Oh, to think there isn’t enough time in the day (or money in the bank) to support all these venues supporting the cause!
