breast cancer awareness month


breast cancer awareness month


In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, kicking off today, celeb mom-to-be Christina Applegate has helped design a beautiful necklace to raise money for her Right Action for Women foundation.

Christina Applegate herself is a breast cancer survivor, undergoing a double mastectomy last year, even though cancer was only detected in one of her breasts. Her mother is also a breast cancer survivor.

Applegate, along with jewelry designer Alex Woo, worked together to design the pendant necklace called “Tree of Life.”

The website describes the jewelry piece for Breast Cancer Awareness Month: “the pendant with an encircled tree represents harmony, hope and renewal. Each of the seven leaves remind us to live everyday of the week to the fullest. The feminine curves of the tree and branches signify the delicate handmade ribbon roses Christina made for her loved ones while battling breast cancer.
