 3 Fun & Easy Holiday Fashion Tips

879a72af-f795-4e8a-b769-2c842a7faf1e.png

 

 1. Be the chic yet comfortable hostess when you reach for a faux wrap dress in a classic color (see above). Food prep, last minute cleaning and welcoming your guests are easier when you’re comfortable. Faux wrap dresses look elegant and festive yet are easy to wear. Insider tip: Add a little extra spirit to your hosting look with a plaid knotted headband.

2. Skip the ugly sweater this year and stay fashion forward with a cropped cable knit sweater paired with high waisted button fly jeans. Insider tip: Don’t love your mid-section peaking out? Wear a bodysuit under this look.  

3. Go glam without the guilt! We are slowing adding more things to our calendars and many times I hear, is this TOO fancy to wear? The truth is, no, it’s not too fancy, you should wear it! If you feel fantastic then go for it. My dad always taught me, it’s better to be over dressed than under. So grab that sequins and tulle LBD and go glam!

End-of-the-Year Giving

As the year draws to a close, we are often asked "How can I support
Wing for Success?" 
Here are several ways to offer support to those we serve.

MAKE A DONATION IN HONOR OR MEMORY OF SOMEONE: In place of a holiday gift, if you donate in the month of December, we will provide the honoree a card informing them of your generosity. Donate here.

DONATE WOMEN'S Winter Outerwear: We are collecting like-new coats, hats, gloves and scarves at both of our Wings locations. Please contact a program manager to schedule a drop off. 

AMAZON SMILE: Amazon donates 0.5% of the price of your AmazonSmile purchases to the charitable organization of your choice...without costing you extra money! AmazonSmile is the same Amazon you currently shop at - same products, same prices, same service, SAME AMAZON PRIME benefits, except the company will donate money to the nonprofit of your choice. Support Wings for Success by starting your shopping at Amazon Smile and using that link rather than your usual one. Choose Wings for Success as your charity of choice to help fund our programs. Go to Amazon to check out our current wish list to purchase necessary items for our clients. All items would be shipped directly to Wings, so you don't have to worry about delivery.

GIFT CARDS: We accept gift cards from Walmart, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, Kohls, and Target to help us purchase items that clients need and that we do not have in stock. We also have a mother we are sponsoring this holiday season who had to leave her job to care for her son, who was in a debilitating accident. These gift cards will help her purchase everyday items they both need. You may mail the gift cards to PO Box 1184, Frazer PA 19355.

We deeply appreciate every act of support.

Referral Partner Highlight:
Chester County Library

Wings for Success recently participated in the Job Resource Fair organized and hosted by Chester County Library in Exton. The event consisted of workshops, table resources from local nonprofits assisting the unemployed, and one-on-one sessions in which Wings for Success had multiple volunteers partake. Sophia Zouras, a 10-year veteran of our workshop committee, led a workshop on Personal Branding and Career Development. Every seat was taken for Sophia's workshop with seventeen people attending! The library had private breakout rooms where Wings had three more volunteers serving attendees on a one-on-one capacity, providing tips and education on resume building, interview preparations, and the dos-and-don’ts of looking for jobs online. In the community resource space, we had two more volunteers and our newest staff member, Lorena Baeza, managing the table, providing general information about the services offered by Wings for Success. We are thrilled to share that in 2023 Lorena will be leading the effort to expand our education services, translating all of our workshops into Spanish so we may better serve our community! We look forward to holding more events like this one at the Exton Library and continuing our partnerships to reach more in need within our community.
