From the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you to everyone who attended and supported our 2nd Annual Wine Pairing with Fashion event in October! It was truly an unforgettable evening, and I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love and generosity from all of you.

As many of you know, this event was personal to me as a breast cancer survivor. Teaming up with Mount Salem Vineyards and hosting this event at Lady of Leitrim was not just about fashion and wine—it was about making a difference. Thanks to your amazing support, 10% of all proceeds from our clothing sales and wine purchases will be donated to the Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center, helping those who are currently fighting breast cancer get the care they need.

An Evening of Style, Sips, and Making a Difference!

What a night! We had the perfect combination of fabulous fashion and fine wines, paired together in a way that truly celebrated the best of both worlds. Whether you were browsing our new collection, enjoying a glass of wine from Mount Salem Vineyards, or simply catching up with friends, the energy in the room was infectious.

I loved seeing so many of you trying on pieces that made you feel confident and beautiful—that’s what Lady of Leitrim is all about! The laughter, the conversation, and the joy that filled the boutique were exactly what I had envisioned when I first opened the store.

What makes last night so special is knowing that, together, we’ve made a real impact. Your generosity has allowed us to raise funds for the Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center, a place that is near and dear to my heart.

Breast Cancer Awareness Is Key—And It Doesn’t Stop Here

While the event was a huge success, the fight against breast cancer continues every day. I encourage all of you to keep the momentum going by staying informed, spreading awareness, and reminding the women in your lives to get regular screenings. Early detection saves lives—mine included.

Take the time to do a self-exam and stay aware of any changes in your body. If you notice anything unusual, don’t wait—schedule an appointment with your doctor. It’s always better to be safe, and catching things early can make all the difference.

Looking Ahead: More to Come at Lady of Leitrim

The holiday season is fast approaching and we’re excited to share more events with our community. Keep an eye out for more opportunities to merge fashion and fun!

To everyone who joined us at Wine Pairing with Fashion, I can’t thank you enough. You’ve made a lasting impact, and I’m beyond grateful to have such an incredible community of supporters.

Let’s continue to spread awareness, raise funds, and support each other—whether it’s through fashion, wine, or simply coming together for a good cause.

Until next time, with all my love and gratitude,

Maddy Zamel
Owner, Lady of Leitrim
