RISING TIDE: Dress for the Game’s Tornado Relief Effort

As I sat in Birmingham horrified at the images that were being flashed on the screen of the massive tornado that was destroying Tuscaloosa, tears filled my eyes.  I still can’t explain the constant pit-like feeling in my stomach. My heart goes out to the families that lost love ones and their homes.
Dress for the Game wants to help. Let’s put aside our rivalries and and rise to the occasion to help a fellow SEC community in need.
I have ordered a special necklace to show our support for Tuscaloosa and the surrounding areas that were devastated. A portion of the proceeds of this necklace will go directly to the Red Cross in Tuscaloosa. I contacted the Red Cross and they informed me that monetary needs are their highest priority.

The cost of the necklace is $20.
You can purchase through Paypal until the website is completed click on the link below:

If you are unable to purchase a necklace, please pray for Alabama.

Spring Fever

Its time for Spring Games! It's the first chance we get to see our favorite teams suit up and take the field. These games won’t determine who makes it to the championship but as an SEC fan they still matter!
Here is the ESPN lineup:
Georgia 1pm EST
Alabama 3pm EST
Arkansas 4pm EST
Wouldn’t you be cute in Ruffles with a Side of Bows either at the game or even watching it at home

And for you Auburn fans the game is at 3pm EST. You would be showing your school pride in the All Occasions Dress

Hope everyone has a blast watching their team and remember only 139 days till SEC Football!

Decisions

I am currently searching for the perfect background to photograph all my new inventory. I was thinking of gathering some old barn wood and making a barn wood wall in my office. Take the picture below (which I LOVE by the way) and flip it.

What do you think?

I am also in the process of ordering some jewelry to match all the beautiful dresses I am getting in. To showcase these pieces I MUST have this tray from Vintage Blue by Sophia (her shop can be found on Etsy)

I would love to hear your comments or suggestions about backgrounds for any or all items.

Remember: If you want to order any of the dresses on this blog please send me an email dressforthegame@gmail.com or send me a message on Facebook.

New Dress

Just a quick post before I run out of town about the dress I just received. I ordered this back in October and have been patiently waiting for it to arrive…and it was worth the wait!

The detail is so feminine and the bright colored top is perfect for spring and summer. Please email me at dressforthegame@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing or message me on Facebook if you have any questions.
