October Letter from the Editor - Fall
Hey Halfstackers!
Hope fall is treating you all right! This month we are focusing on all things fall must haves - fashion, style, beauty, food and we will be bringing you some great video editorials in the coming weeks. As usual the Halfstack team has been out and about at some great events and will be sharing their adventures with you. You can be sure to find some great local restaurant reviews and culture spotlights from Thom, Dana and Cora. You will also get an insiders view of some great fashion events from Perry and Olivia (our new digital fashion blogger) and some great out and about pieces from Rob and Dana. Also, make sure to check us out for Healthy Fridays every friday from our Health and Fitness blogger - Brittany. She's got some great pieces, interviews and posts on nutrition and health in store for you all this month!
If you didn't know, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. While most people are aware of breast cancer, many forget to take the steps to have a plan to detect the disease in its early stages and encourage others to do the same. So, ladies and gentleman (guys this isn't a disease that only women get) love your tatas this month and get a check up! I will be spotlighting some brands doing some good this month and share with you all places and products that give back to this national charity.
Be on the lookout for some new Youtube videos from us (if you haven't please subscribe here!) and some upcoming creative stories from our other photo blogger - Aimee of Visual Stimulus. She'll be spotlighting some great neighborhood photography to inspire you to get out and explore Chicago and your own hood.
