Has it really been almost 8 months since we’ve posted something on our blog? Forgive us! Between being pregnant with baby #3, starting a new website (http://www.iBetterAccessorize.com) and our recent redesign of the site, we’ve been PRETTY BUSY!
Sometimes life gets in the way, but know that our fans are #1. Without you, we wouldn’t be as successful as we are today. We love you!
We are pleased to welcome our newest line, Punkeelove Headbands. Punkeelove Headbands are the highest quality NON-SLIP, ADJUSTABLE headbands.

Whether it’s running a marathon, chasing kids, watching tv or girls night out, Punkeelove is a must have! Punkeelove Headbands are intended for ages 4 and up.
I recently got my hands on a few of these. I left them on the table last night and was not surprised to find my daughters fighting over who was going to wear which one to school this morning. Not only are the designs beautiful (there’s one for every outfit in your closet, guaranteed!), but they are adjustable, which is awesome! It’s hard to share headbands with my daughters, but now, I can! I am in love and I know you will be too.

As you know, WayTutuCute.com raises money for various causes throughout the year. We are dedicating the remainder of the month to raise money for a syndrome that you may not have heard of, but is close to our hearts.
In May 2007, at 21 months old, a friend’s daughter began showing symptoms of what they now know is Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Every 10-12 weeks since, Ella has episodes where she vomits profusely, gets extremely dizzy, gets in a conscious coma and sometimes has to be admitted into the hospital. Ella’s parents have been to the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio to see Dr. Dean Fishman, a chiropractor and also to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles to see Dr. Richard Boles. It wasn’t until November of 2009 – over two years later, that Ella was finally diagnosed with CVS. As a mother, I can only imagine how hard it must have been to go through those episodes without having any idea what was wrong or what could be done to stop them.
CVS is an extremely rare disorder and we want to help Ella and her parents in any way we can to spread the word. Each time Ella and her parents go to the hospital, they have to explain to the ER doctors and nurses what to do to help her get through the episode. They hope that by educating others on this disorder, eventually, someone will find a cure for Ella and the thousands of other sufferers. To read more about Ella, please visit her page.
We are working on a couple of ideas to raise money this month, including an auction that is going on right now on our Facebook fan page. 23 items are up for auction currently and 50% of all proceeds will be donated to CureMito!
CureMito’s mission is to establish and support a local center of excellence for the innovative research, treatment and education in mitochondrial disease and functional disorders. Their vision is to enable families affected by mitochondrial dysautonomia and functional disorders to benefit from the clinical treatment and labratory research provided by Dr. Boles and his colleagues and to raise money for the research needed to improve these existing treatments.
CureMito! is a non-profit organization that exists predominantly to establish, maintain, and promote a center of excellence for these, and other, functional and dysautonomic disorders, studied from the mitochondrial perspective. This center will be based in the Los Angeles Area under the leadership of Dr. Richard G. Boles, but will provide care to children and young adults from across the world who wish to come to the Center. In addition, this Center will perform important basic and applied research into the link between energy metabolism and the functional and dysautonomic conditions.
Their goals are to find better treatments for these conditions by combining laboratory and clinical research, and to help people now suffering from these conditions with innovative and effective therapies. No such center exists today, anywhere in the world. Please help CureMito to fund their research and find a cure! Visit their FB page for more info.
If you’d like to donate directly, you can do so by visiting http://www.curemito.org/.
Happy New Year! If you follow our Facebook fan page, you know that occasionally we post clearance or liquidation sales.
We have decided to try something new – a Daily Deal! We will post one deal every day for the next week or so, spotlighting one item at 50-80% off retail price. This deal is only valid from 8:00am – 11:59pm EST and can be found on our FB page or directly on our website. You can either comment on the photo on our FB page, email us with the applicable info (color, size, quantity, etc.) or shop directly on our website by clicking on “daily deal” on the top navigation bar.
In order to bring you these rock bottom prices, we will need to sell a certain number of items that day. We list this number on the image itself. Should we not reach that number, we will notify all that have already purchased and refund any monies paid.
Any paypal invoices must be paid for within 24 hours, or they will be canceled. Daily deals can take 3-4 weeks to ship, so please allow us the time to get them to you. Please note that some items have limited quantities and will be sold on a first come, first served basis.
As always, thank you so much for your support and business. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Peace, Love and Tutus!
