MY STYLE EVENT
Thirteen-and-half years ago the My Weekly Preview team created the annual My Style fashion parade and luncheon event to raise funds for local charities – to date, the event has raised more than $400,000. Due to COVID there has been a two-year hiatus on the event, however, this year Sunshine Coasters warmly welcomed back the 2021 My Style luncheon fundraiser by turning it into a sold-out event in just one week. This year the money raised is going to the No More Fake Smiles foundation. The event’s great success is due to the generous support of many small businesses including The Wharf Mooloolaba, The Savvy Squire, and fashion houses Treasure Store, Gingers Boutique, Get Kitted Clothing Co and Moo Baba.
