dressember international justice mission beyoutiful hope
This annual campaign began back in 2009 by Blythe Hill, a graduate student who was bored with her academic routine and decided to start a style challenge which ended up turning into a national campaign! Last year the foundation raised over $460,000 towards International Justice Mission! This year my goal is $400. I also created a Dressember 2015 Lookbook to help you come up with ideas to style your way through Dressember.

"Dressember is a collaborative movement leveraging fashion and creativity to restore dignity to all women. Dressember uses fashion to advocate for women who've been exploited for their femininity. As women take on the creative challenge of wearing a dress for the 31 days of December, they are advocating for the inherent dignity of all women. Dressember exists to inspire and empower a global community of like-minded women who are locking arms to face one of the greatest injustices of our time. The heart of Dressember is freedom-- that every woman has the right to live a vibrant and autonomous life."   -- Dressember Foundation 

The Rules: 
  1. Commit to wearing a dress every day for the entire month of December [Use #DRESSember]
  2. Create your own campaign page (or a team page!) under the Dressember campaign
  3. Tell your friends what you're doing and why, and invite them to sponsor you

Helpful Loopholes:
  1. You can repeat dresses (get creative!)
  2. You can wear pants when you're working out, cleaning, sleeping, or if you have a job that requires you to wear pants
  3. You can wear skirts, but only over dresses
  4. You can wear pants, but only under dresses
