A Find: Chic for a Cause

What: i am… accessories

Why: Giving is fashionable but fashion for a cause is the ultimate in charity chic. We all know someone who has been affected by cancer in some form. With walks and ribbons galore, our hearts our tugged in so many directions that it can be compassion overload. That’s why I love the nameplate necklace campaign started at i am… accessories. The I am . . . angry nameplate necklace‘s proceeds benefit the National Breast Cancer Coalition Fund’s (NBCCF) aiding crucial breast cancer research. But it’s such a conversation piece compared to a pink ribbon. If I had a dollar for every time someone coyly asked me, “So, why are you angry?” while I was sporting my sterling silver chain ($38), I could fund breast cancer research out of my own pocket.
Once explained to inquirers, the necklace becomes much more than an emotive gimmick.

Price: Sterling silver $38; Gold plated $48; 14K gold $195
