LOU LOU BOUTIQUE SAYS, "IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS" IN THIS YEAR'S CHARITY DRIVE AT BETHESDA ROW

lou lou Boutique has launched its annual charity drive, which culminates in "lou lou Day" on Saturday, August 2, with the theme, "It's the little things." The theme refers to its chosen charity for 2014, Dress for Success. That organization provides professional attire and accessories, as well as career development resources, for economically-disadvantaged women. Even small accessories, that contribute to a professional image for job interviews, can make a huge difference in these women's lives - hence the theme, "It's the little things."

Right now, through July 31, you can donate a dollar at lou lou, and receive a pouch of free earring backs. The entire proceeds will go to Dress for Success.

Then, from July 21-August 2, they will host a Little Things Accessory Drive. Donate gently-used accessories at the store, and lou lou will donate an item to Dress for Success for each one you bring in.

Finally, August 2 will be Annual lou lou Day. For every $40 spent, customers will receive a $10 gift certificate. 15% of the day's proceeds will benefit Dress for Success.

Previous lou lou Days have raised over $25K altogether for women’s charities. Past recipients include The Foundation for Women's Cancer, House of Ruth and Bethany House.  This year’s goal is to raise $25,000 for Dress for Success.
