Today’s WWIW post is in support of Frocktober, a fundraising initiative for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF). In Australia, a woman dies every ten hours from ovarian cancer, and it can not be detected by a pap smear, so it is usually quite advanced when it is discovered. I am hoping to raise at least $500 for the OCRF through the month of October, to help them raise much needed funds to research and develop an early screening test.
Frocktober aims to not only raise money, but also to raise public awareness of ovarian cancer, as well as promoting women’s health and wellbeing. I will try and wear a dress everyday during October, and I am asking each and everyone of you to at least consider supporting me in this amazing cause.

Monday: Today was the absolutely quintessential spring day! It was sunny and warm, but not too warm. My perfect kind of day, and this was a perfect outfit.
Thursday: Today was another beautiful day, but was unexpectedly much, much cooler, so I spent most of the day freezing my behind off!! These jeans are new from Gap, and I am in love – the skinny bootcut is so flattering, and the denim is really nice. I also have them in fuchsia and lemon, but I hope they bring them out in another rinse – that is how much I love them!
Friday: Is spring really here? I think it is. I think we actually had a whole week of glorious warm and sunny days. It is still cool at night (the kids are insisting on keeping the flannel sheets for a while yet!) which is nice. Today I spent the morning at work, and then errands in the afternoon, with a quick lunch with hubby and the kids squeezed in the middle.
Tuesday: The weather is really starting to heat up now! We spent the morning at home, and then late afternoon, I went to run errands and do the grocery shopping.
