Washington, DC (PRWEB) October 3, 2005 -

Accessorizing with pink is fun and fashionable, but also supports breast cancer awareness. Holland Cox, an independent handbag label based in Washington, DC, joins the cause by creating an exclusive set of handmade accessory bags in bright pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. During the month of October, 50 percent of the retail sales of these accessory bags will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation by Holland Cox (http://www. hollandcox. com (http://www. hollandcox. com)).

“Cancer has changed the lives of so many people I care about. It is very important to me to support this worthy cause in a creative way,” said Valerie Williams, owner of and designer behind Holland Cox. “Creating something special for Breast Cancer Awareness Month came naturally, not only because the cause is close to my heart, but because designing with pink is always a pleasure!”

The accessory bag set, like all Holland Cox handbags, is completely handcrafted by Ms. Williams from her original patterns. In honor of breast cancer awareness, the set is made from cotton corduroy in a bright pink stripe, and is attractively packaged with an oversized pink bow. The set is fully lined in solid black cotton for maximum functionality. This set, designed exclusively for Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2005, is available online at www. hollandcox. com/cure. html (http://www. hollandcox. com/cure. html).

Donations to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation go to breast cancer research, public education, screening for at-risk women, and treatment for survivors. Visit the foundation at http://www. komen. org (http://www. komen. org) for more information.
