Hello dears,
As you probably know by the excessive amount of pink around town this week, October is breast cancer awareness month. Because our donations always go towards women and children, we thought this would be a great month to give 10% of all sales to Beats for Boobs Seattle, a non-profit event that gives 100% of their earnings to three local breast cancer charities: BREAST CANCER RESOURCE CENTER, YOUNG SURVIVAL COALITION, and SEATTLE CANCER CARE ALLIANCE!
The event is at the Crocodile on October 19th, and would be a great place to wear your new pink Otra Vez earrings! We could not be more impressed with the group of women who throw this event each year, good luck ladies and keep up the great work!
Love,
Otra Vez

Twice Blushed Designer Amanda Vernell
Join us this Wednesday, April 28, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. for the Otra Vez + Twice Blushed Trunk Show. The Trunk Show will feature upcycled and reconstructed wedding dresses by Seattle designer Amanda Vernell and recycled jewelry and accessories by Otra Vez.
As you may have noticed, more and more green wedding resources are emerging as eco-conscious brides (and grooms!) are looking for ways to keep their weddings earth-friendly. Twice Blushed turns once-loved bridal gowns into unique, one-of-a-kind art that represents an environmentally conscious approach to the traditional wedding gown. An essential component of a “green wedding”, Twice Blushed gowns are handmade right here in Seattle and range from $300 to $2,000 plus.
This trunk show, sponsored by Fashion Group International, is happening at Vernell’s studio at 5228 20th Ave. NW in Ballard. Cupcakes and champagne will be served. Tickets are $10 for FGI members, $15 for non-members and $5 for students with ID.
Swing on by, meet the designers, and peruse the beautiful showcase of gowns, jewelry and accessories!
See you there!
