Happy Friday!! Y’all I am so excited that the weekend is here! I’ve got a birthday to celebrate and I’m sure there will be cake!!
May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month and I am partnering with Cabana Life as they encourage you to schedule your annual skin check and join them as they Spread Sunshine Safely!
At age 26, founder of Cabana Life, Melissa Papock, was a happy New York merchandising expert for top fashion and beauty magazines (Vogue, Vanity Fair and Marie Claire to name a few). She was also diagnosed with melanoma. To her surprise, her doctor advised “sun protective clothing” as her first defense.
Alyssa Adams, former Director of Merchandising at Vanity Fair, had family history that included melanoma, so when she learned of Melissa’s story it was a hit close to home.
Knowing how ugly sun damage is, they decided that sun protection doesn’t have to be . . And so Cabana Life had its beginning!
Cabana Life is a fabulous line of 50+UPF clothing taking fashion from sand to sidewalk.
Their collection offers a variety of sun-inspired pieces which include, swim suits, cover-ups, hats, tunics, dresses, shirts and pants for boys, girls and women.
Cabana Life has partnered with several like-minded organizations such as Stand Up To Cancer & Melanoma Research Alliance to raise funds to help further skin cancer research, education and prevention. Their mission is to spread awareness about proper UV protection while maintaining a sense of style.
DID YOU KNOW . . . .
· According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, clothing is the first line of defense against sun exposure.
· Even if you’re in the shade, if you can see the sun, your skin can be damaged by UV rays.
· Clouds can actually increase the amount of radiation that reaches your skin.
· You are safest from the sun when your skin is covered with UPF 50+ clothing and sunscreen.
I just LOVE this brand! Of course, it’s absolutely necessary to have protection from the damaging rays of the sun, BUT just check out their ADORABLE designs!
This Road Map Tunic is a stunning piece and so comfy! I love the soft, lightweight fabric!
And I can’t wait to hit the sand in this beautiful
Marrakesh Market Woven Embroidered Cover Up!
This look could not get any cuter! Just perfect for an afternoon barbecue!
