Relios Says ‘Think Pink’ for Breast Cancer Awareness
Jewelry Designer Carolyn Pollack laces up her shoes in the fight against Breast Cancer!
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Sept. 28 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Relios Jewelry, America's largest manufacturer of authentic American-made designer jewelry, is offering something special to their web customers - a "purchase with a purpose". Now through October 31st, 10% of all jewelry purchases from the Relios Breast Cancer support jewelry selection will go toward the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk. In addition, lead Relios jewelry designer Carolyn Pollack will be participating in one of the many 60-mile events taking place in several cities around the country. The 2007 Breast Cancer 3-Day Series will generate millions of dollars to fund critical breast cancer research and community outreach programs.
"This walk is an opportunity for me to make a personal difference in the fight against breast cancer," says Relios Jewelry Designer Carolyn Pollack. "It is equally exciting to know that our customers can also make a difference in something as important as finding a cure for breast cancer simply by going to our website and choosing from any number of pink-themed jewelry items carefully selected for this very purpose."
Because pink is the signature color of Breast Cancer support, the Relios Breast Cancer jewelry selections include a "Pink Mother of Pearl Bear with Ribbon Bail Pendant Necklace," specially designed for this event. Tradition holds that the bear icon represents sacred healing power and is a symbol of maternal protection. Visit reliosjewelry.com and click on "Breast Cancer Support Jewelry" to view all of the pink-themed jewelry pieces.
The Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk in which Carolyn will be participating takes place Friday, October 5th through Sunday, October 7th in Philadelphia - a city she has come to know and love through her work as a frequent guest on the popular QVC televised shopping network.
"I'm going to join thousands of others across the country - many who've lost wives, mothers, sisters and daughters - who are going to put in some 20-miles a day to raise awareness and generate funds for breast cancer," says Pollack. "I can't think of a better way to spread the word, or a better cause for Relios to be involved with."
About Susan G. Komen for the Cure
Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement. Today, Komen for the Cure is the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures.
Thanks to events like the Breast Cancer 3-Days, the organization has invested nearly $1 billion to fulfill its promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.

Custom Jeans Company Expands Product Line, Caters to All Shapes, Sizes and Physical Disabilities
MUMBAI, India - Sept. 28 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- In a world filled with people of all shapes, sizes and varying physical needs, the fashion industry has to recognize that not everyone is a perfect size. Make Your Own Jeans is a fashion-savvy company that recognizes the importance of non-conforming, eye-catching styles.
Make Your Own Jeans (MakeYourOwnJeans.com), is a leading online source for people who want and need to customize their jeans. They have recently expanded their product line to include more than 150 different types of denims to choose from, stretch and non-stretch, and have also added suits to their lineup (MakeYourOwnSuits.com), that include sport coats.
"We have manufactured more than 20,000 pairs of jeans for our customers," Harry Shahari, founder of Make Your Own Jeans, said. "Apart from our regular orders we have made jeans with up to 85-inch waists and 73-inch lengths. We also regularly create comfortable and fashionable styles for people in wheelchairs and others with special needs."
No matter what shape or size a person is, Make Your Own Jeans can create a custom-designed pair of jeans, sport coat, suit, or other piece of clothing that will be attractive, appropriate and comfortable for the customer to wear. Custom clothing is offered at the lowest price possible and most custom jeans are only $45.
According to Harry, the company received such overwhelming positive feedback about the jeans that they decided to add the suit component to their product line. Custom suits start at $99, the lowest-priced bespoke suit on the Internet.
Make Your Own Jeans has established their presence in the fashion industry. They work closely with organizations that cater to people with special needs such as tall people, plus sizes, and individuals with physical disabilities. In fact, they were recently featured on the National Marfan Foundation web site as a recommended company to approach for fashion needs.
Marfan syndrome is a heritable condition that affects the connective tissue making it defective and difficult to hold the framework of the body together.
Customers are so infatuated with Make Your Own Jeans' customer service and quality of clothing that they continue to return time after time.
Make Your Own Jeans saves all their customers' measurements and refers to them when a repeat order is placed. The latest technology is used to store and retrieve measurement data for each custom-made garment.
"It must be extremely satisfying to know that you cater to a group of customers who can't seem to fit in anywhere else," Kirsten Yoder, a happy customer in Wisconsin said. "I ordered my first pair of jeans only three weeks ago; they arrived last week. I am so impressed!"
Kirsten explained that after wearing the jeans only once, they felt even better than her old standbys which never fit very well, but were the best that she could do. She is 5'9" and has a small waist, but is muscular in the thighs and legs and rarely found a pair of jeans that fit. She is ready to order her next pair and plans to tell everyone she knows about the company. She was also very impressed with the personal note that accompanied the jeans and offered encouragement and inspiration.
If the customer wants it, Harry's company can make it. The process is easy and the customer simply enters their measurements and other special requirements, if necessary, in the web site's comment box; there is one on every product page.
Harryfashion, the parent company of Make Your Own Jeans, is comprised of a team of young, dynamic clothing professionals; they have more than 25 years experience selling denim and other high-end fabrics and clothing. The company produces high-quality clothing such as jeans, jackets, suits, and more. Their team of experts is involved in the process from start to end.
Make Your Own Jeans has a global presence with a strong customer base in the U.S., U.K., Germany and Australia.
People are not mass produced, so why should their clothing be? For more information, visit: www.MakeYourOwnJeans.com.

Noah’s Arcade: Alternative Kids Apparel Just Like Daddy Would Wear
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Sept. 18 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Noah's Arcade, a California-based clothing line for boys - newborn to 6T - announces a fun, hip line that caters to the edgy crowd. When co-owners of Noah's Arcade, Allyson Wagoner and Shannon Hanly, went shopping for their new baby boys, they discovered that the market for cool and happening boy's apparel was limited.
"Everything was ducks and bears," Hanly said, "and that was not the kind of clothing that I wanted for my new baby boy."
Wagoner and Hanly became fast friends after the birth of their first sons. Wagoner was working as a prominent graphic designer in the fashion industry and Hanly was an event coordinator with an eye for flair and detail. They sought clothing inspired by their edgy lifestyles, but came up empty handed.
After designing samples for their friends, the two new moms realized that they were not the only ones interested in clothes that were freshly inspired and resembled the duds that their children's daddies were wearing.
Being creative, and with a sound business sense, the two joined forces to create Noah's Arcade.
Popular shirts and onesies include: P.I.M.P - "Poopie in My Pants"; "Mohawk"; "Shake, Rattle and Roll"; and "Little Squirt" depicting water gun play.
"Dads may not wear P.I.M.P tees," Hanly laughs, "but, the message has taken off for their little men."
Currently, Noah's Arcade sells t-shirts and onesies. In the fall, their line will be expanded to thermals and hooded sweatshirts. Their alternative fashion line is available in 28 stores throughout southern California and they are expanding, nationwide, in the fall.
Stores where Noah's Arcade items are sold include, but are not limited to: Kitson Kids, This Little Piggy Wears Cotton, Lisa Kline Kids, and Hush Baby.
Wagoner is the creative director and Hanly is in charge of sales and marketing, but most importantly, they are full-time moms who want to share their trendy and creative designs with others seeking funky and fun clothing for their kids.
"Expression is key when it comes to fashion," Wagoner said, "and we want to make sure that people have choices."
