And that’s a wrap on the frocktastic festivities of Frocktober 2015! The month long fundraiser for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) saw women all over Australia band together and frock up daily to raise awareness and much needed funds for an early detection test for the silent killer. I was kindly asked to pop on a “Frocktober Ambassador” hat this year and I hope I helped you all to understand the need for research into the disease.

Women from all over the country don frocks in support of the charity, creating fundraising pages for their family, friends and internet buddies to donate. Wearing a frock every day isn’t as easy as you may think! Especially since the weather has been temperamental in Perth and majority of my days are spent at work so I need to be work appropriate too! Plus I’ve had to shave my legs daily and get up early to take a picture. Haha, but I don’t mind because the cause is so important, especially as women’s cancer unfortunately runs in my family and if we can band together and raise money for much needed research, hopefully one day medical professionals will know more about the silent killer. Here’s my first week of Frocktober goodness. DAY …
