This year their goal was $800,000, and while the total fell a bit short, any amount will greatly benefits these kids in need! According to No Kid Hungry's website, "1 in 5 kids in America doesn't get the food they need every day. This takes a terrible toll on their health and development, and threatens their futures in profound ways. It also drags down our nation's economy by perpetuating the cycle of poverty." With such a staggering statistic, it's no wonder why so many people attend this event year after year.

As with any big event, I always have to make sure I'm dressed for the occasion. So, I enlisted in the help of Rent the Runway and GlowDry! I had never rented a dress from RTR, but was beyond impressed with their service and quality of the dress. If you've never rented from them before, you will receive $25 OFF your first order for $75+. And if you're like me, hitting that minimum is easy to do (dress, clutch, earrings & the list goes on)! Being that the event was on Thursday, I made sure that I had it delivered on Tuesday. RTR suggests having the dress a day before you need it. You also get two sizes of the dress, which is so comforting. I know I experience #TallGirlProblems all the time, so the fact I was able to order two sizes (both long and for no additional charge) gave me the reassurance I needed to use them for this event! With the dress on order, it was time to book my hair and make-up appointment.

Obsessed with this look! Penelope Cruz was my inspo for the make-up & channeled my inner Blake Lively for my updo.
Wish I could relive that night all over, but I guess I'll just have to get another event on the calendar soon! That goes for you, too!

Thank you!! Being that I'm working a lob (currently), I find it easier to rock an updo to events like these. Thanks for following & for the sweet compliment!
