Event Announcement :: Corsets & Cocktails {A Lingerie Happy Hour Supporting Breast Cancer Awareness}

It has been nearly six looong months since our last mom’s night out, and we still can’t manage to wipe the smiles off our faces from having so much fun!  In fact, we had such a ball that we immediately decided to begin planning another mom’s night out – right after we recouped, that is.  Over the past several months, we have been reaching out to local businesses we love and gathering a team of sponsors that is absolutely unbelievable!  Our ultimate goal for this event is to put a spotlight on breast cancer awareness and remind moms that it is okay to put the worries and the stressors of the day behind – and take some time to focus on YOU!  

Won’t you join us for this fabulous night of pampering and fun?

As many of you know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month – a cause that is near and dear to our hearts and one that we are passionate about focusing on.  So first and foremost, we want all of you to know that Corsets & Cocktails is not only going to be a fabulous mom’s night out, but also an incredible opportunity to spread breast cancer awareness throughout our community too.

We are beyond honored to be partnering together with The Rose, a non-profit breast cancer organization right here in Houston, and we are thrilled to have representatives joining us for the event to share more about their initiatives and current campaigns, like their Shop2Care program and Massages & Mammograms which they have joined together with Massage Heights for.  However, we also have a few ways for YOU to get involved with the cause…

On the night of the event, we encourage ALL attendees to not just think pink – but to wear pink as well.  So get out that pink blouse from the back of your closet,  grab some pink pants next time you are shopping at your favorite boutique, or even just throw on some pink jewelry with your favorite LBD.  As an added incentive, we will be passing out extra giveaway tickets at the door for those who do! Also, we would love for you to consider participating in our reading drive.  As you know, waiting in a clinic can be…well…boring.  So we are asking for each of you to bring in a new magazine or gently used book to donate to The Rose’s Houston area locations.  Once again, for every piece of reading material you bring in – you will be given an additional giveaway ticket too!

What To Do Revised

While this event is going to be an amazing opportunity to support a great cause, we also want it to serve as a reminder that us moms need to pamper and take care of ourselves regularly!  And with this incredible line up of sponsors, there is no doubt that it will be an easy feat!

If you have yet to visit, Top Drawer will absolutely take your breath away just as soon as you walk in the door!  Their beautiful space is not only immaculately designed and such a perfect place to host a lingerie happy hour – but they also have the most gorgeous assortment of intimates, from panties to bras to pajamas to items that only your husband will see you in!  {Wink, wink.}  On the night of the event only, they will be offering an exclusive discount, so while all of the fun and pampering is included in your ticket price, you might want to bring a little bit extra to do some shopping too.

But first, be sure to stop and grab yourself something to eat and drink.  The Tasting Room Wine Cafe is graciously providing complimentary white, red, AND sangria all for us moms to enjoy.  {Please remember to drink responsibly!}  And we sure hope that you arrive hungry, because our dear friends at El Tiempo Cantina are bringing over an out of control fajita dinner spread that is oh-so-delicious and Nothing Bundt Cakes will have a large cake and lots of sweet little bundtinis to nosh on as you mix and mingle throughout the night as well.

After that, stop by and say hello to our sponsors BLVD Dentistry.  {You remember them from our Houston Smiles series!}  They will be on hand to spread the word about how to take care of YOUR smile, plus they are offering some amazing discounts on products in office too.   From there, swing by and take a peek at all of the jewelry and accessories that Tonya Torres, a personal stylist with Stella & Dot, is bringing.  She has some BEAUTIFUL pieces for fall, and who knows – you just might find that perfect pink necklace for the night also!  And while you are still in shopping mode, don’t forget to visit Beth Bills, an independent distributor with It Works!.  She is bringing wraps and skin care and so much more, all so that you can continue the pampering at home too!

Need a break after dinner and shopping?  Not to worry.  We have you covered!  Our friends from over at Massage Heights Town & Country are bringing in massage chairs and will be on hand to massage the stress of the day away!  Also, European Wax Center is providing complimentary eyebrow waxing for moms in attendance too.  We love that each waxing expert is highly trained in giving your brows the most perfect arch, so be prepared to leave the event looking even more gorgeous than you already do!

Kelly D
Kelly is the founder of Houston Moms Blog and has lived in this beautiful city nearly all of her life. She has a degree in education from Texas State University and was honored to teach special education for eight years to some of the cutest little kiddos you could ever meet. While teaching, Kelly met Cody – a tall drink of water and country boy to the core – and together, they fell in love, got married, and decided to start a family. In March 2011, they welcomed Hayes into the world, a silly but smart little boy with a story you have to read to believe. And in April 2013, their family was complete with the addition of Hadley, a super gregarious and oh-so-cute baby girl. Now, Kelly devotes her days to caring for her own little ones…and would not trade this new job of hers for the world! In her not-so-spare time, Kelly loves meeting up with her girlfriends for margaritas, failing miserably at Pinterest projects, and exploring this big old city with her two favorite little side-kicks in tow.
