St Stephen's puts the FUN in Fundraising for Breakthrough for Cancer Week

St Stephen's joins the rest of the UK in turning a shade of pink to raise awareness and much needed funds for Breakthrough for Cancer Month with a variety of fun activities.

On Thursday 30th October the Originals team will be offering cuts, blow-dries and styling in return for a donation to Breakthrough for Cancer. If you fancy a change of style or a cool up-do - why not change your look for charity (as if we need an excuse!) and let the Originals team work their hair magic while you get the feel-good factor of donating to this good cause in return.

You will also be able to pick up a pair of limited edition pink GHDs, a percentage of each sale going to this great charity. Keep up that good karma by enjoying a make-up session, courtesy of The Body Shop. Learn all about the new autumn/winter colours and how you should be wearing them in return for a donation to Breakthrough for Cancer.

There will collection buckets around St Stephen's and all staff are being encouraged to wear pink in return for a small donation - so don't adjust your glasses. Vicky Mumby, Originals owner says, 'It's lovely to support such a worthy charity and it's great to be working with St Stephen's again. Since they opened this side of town has received a new lease of life, and the fact that they are keen to work with, and so support, local independent businesses such as Originals at these events is fantastic for all involved - especially when we can make money for a important cause.'

With all these great events what better excuse do you need to part with your money, look and feel great and raise money for such a great cause - some decisions are easy!

Fashion - My Day as a Model By Annie Wykes Photos By Mo
	Right, well to start off, I'm not a model at all and was really nervous about doing this modelling for Bekki, a Second Year Fashion Journalism degree Student, who studies in Epsom but is actually from Hull. I've always wanted to be a model and today I had my chance to get some experience in a photo shoot and so I took it up. For around a week before the shoot I had to drink loads of water Read more...

Fashion - Out With the New, In With the Old By Bekki Stephenson
	The idea of wearing old clothing as new developed in the mid 1960s. The idea of mass production was wearing thin among the trendy youths and so they began to search for clothing that made them stand out from the crowd, scouring one-off boutiques, flea markets and thrift shops. As a reaction to this newly acquired vintage vogue the 1970s became the era of the Read more...

Fashion - An Interview With Cherona Blacksell, Fashion Designer By Bekki Stephenson
	It is often a false preconception that coming from Hull makes things slightly more difficult, opportunity wise, to get into the fashion industry. This has always angered me. Granted, Hull is not the trendiest of fashion hotspots about, but as I hope ThisisUll's fashion pages are proving, there is certainly a lot more out there than meets the eye. So in an eager hope to promote Read more...

Fashion - Living With... Large Thighs By Jo Allison
	As summer shines upon us, I breathe a sigh, and not one of relief; tights are officially over. For another season I must succumb the general public to my wobbling white flesh, nylon coverings are just far too warm. As a baby, I was evidently very well fed, as they say breast is best, and as a result, I grew alarmingly large as a child. Looking back at old primary school Read more...

Fashion - Punk; Thirty Years On By Bekki Stephenson
	Thirty years ago, gig tickets cost 50p, a pint of beer 15p and 20 cigarettes 30p. There were only three television channels, all of which shut down at midnight and the greatest fashion accessories were 4-inch, break-your-neck platforms. Indeed, in 1976 the world of iPods, satellite navigation, X boxes, and video phones seemed almost impossible. Perhaps not half Read more...

Fashion - A Voyage of Vintage Discovery In Hull By Jo Allison
	The world's fashion capitals have never to my knowledge once included the lovely English northern city of Hull, but perhaps this is about to change. Hull, not notorious for its fashion sense (unless you are a fan of extensive gold jewellery, tracksuits with the obligatory tucked in socks or small scraps of brightly coloured lycra masquerading as tops) has always had a underground Read more...
