May, it's signals the coming of summer. It's a time to start breaking out and restocking the sundresses and sandals and planning summer vacations. It's also Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month.
Actress and model Garcelle Beauvais has combined her love of summer sandals and her longtime support to help eradicate MS by designing a shoe for ShoeDazzle that will donate 100% of profits from sales of the shoe to The Nancy Davis Foundation for Multiple Sclerosis, a foundation dedicated to the treatment and ultimate cure of MS.
The brilliantly striking faux-patent leather wedge is orange, not only one of the colors of the season, but the official color of Multiple Sclerosis Awareness. Coined "Ms. Glam," the shoe is part of the "Orange You Happy to Erase MS" campaign. Beginning May 14 (yes anxious shoppers, you'll have to wait another 11 days), the shoe will be available exclusively at ShoeDazzle.com, a site founded by Kim Kardashian that launched its first cause-marketing campaign and the "Celebrity Shoe Design Program for Charity" in 2009 and has since partnered with celebrities such Kristen Bell, Kristin Cavallari, Kristin Chenoweth, Jennie Garth and Jenny McCarthy.
