Item #8 on my 40×40 reads:

8. Attend NYC Fashion Week.

It does not read:

8. Walk in a fashion show hosted by Kelly Ripa to benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF) during NYC Fashion Week.

Yet, that’s exactly what I’ll be doing just days before the official start of Fashion Week.

I think I can go ahead and check #8 off my list now.

Electrolux has asked me to participate in a special OCRF-themed fashion show on September 8th to demonstrate how their Perfect Steam™ washer and dryer can take anyone from “Rumpled to Runway.” My challenge is to wear white one last time this summer and accessorize with teal – the official color of Ovarian Cancer Awareness.

So, how can you get involved? Besides reminding me to pack my Xanax?

Electrolux has committed to donating $750,000 to OCRF and starting September 8th, a donation will be made for each Perfect Steam™ washer and dryer purchased. If you’re not in the market for new appliances, $1 will also be donated to OCRF every time you press the Perfect Steam™ button at www.Kelly-Confidential.com. By participating, you have the chance to win daily shopping sprees and a Perfect Steam™ washer and dryer from Electrolux!

Everybody wins, and we all look fabulous while raising awareness for Ovarian Cancer!

I’ll have more info on how to watch the fashion show live online in the coming days, but for now I’m off to fret about my wardrobe and hope I don’t pull a Carrie.

Turn down the volume if you have sensitive ears. A few fiddlesticks are uttered.

My participation in the ‘Rumpled to Runway’ Campaign was sponsored by Electrolux who provided me with a $150 stipend to style my look as well as travel arrangements to and accommodations in New York to participate. Please see my site policy with any questions.
