July already?

How time flies! Here's a little catch up...

The Uniform Project is a fabulous idea - started by a fashionista who grew up in India. In her own words, "Here’s how it works: There are 7 identical dresses, one for each day of the week. Every day I will reinvent the dress with layers, accessories and all kinds of accouterments, the majority of which will be vintage, hand-made, or hand-me-down goodies. Think of it as wearing a daily uniform with enough creative license to make it look like I just crawled out of the Marquis de Sade's boudoir.

The Uniform Project is also a year-long fundraiser for the Akanksha Foundation, a grassroots movement that is revolutionizing education in India. At the end of the year, all contributions will go towards Akanksha's School Project to fund uniforms and other educational expenses for children living in India's slums."
