 party style. There are plenty of bashes across NYC and the Tri-State area, and even if the tequila and tacos are really your main focus, every party is more fun when you’re decked out in the proper attire, right?
With the 5th fast-approaching, there’s not much time to prepare, and since you might be looking for accessories that a little (or a lot) different than your everyday style, you probably don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on them, either. The solution, of course, is your local Goodwill store.
Believe it or not, if you search, you can come across some fabulous accessories perfect for your Cinco de Mayo celebration this weekend, like this woven straw sombrero. It’s relatively simple, as far as sombreros go, but it’s brightly colored trim still makes it feel super festive. And its unfussy decorations leave room for you to really make it your own – if you feel the need, you can always jazz up a basic hat like this one with your own flowers, ribbons, or other festive accoutrements.
On a day like this, you want to let your accessories steal the show. So I suggest going with an extremely basic outfit, as I’ve done here, to really show off any glitzy, glamorous, or downright daring outfit toppers to full effect. Essential pieces – like dark, stretchy skinny pants and a plain tee – will allow you to pile on the accessories without looking like you went completely and totally overboard.
A sombrero or other equally fabulous headpiece makes a great focal point, but on such a festive occasion, more is always better. Load on lots of colorful items – bracelets, necklaces, ribbons, feathered or flowered hair accessories or broaches – anything you can find that comes in a vibrant color palette is fair game.
Just feel free to let loose and have fun with it! A day of celebration is the perfect time to experiment and, who knows, maybe come to the realization that stepping out on a limb and playing around with your everyday style can actually be a lot of fun.
And once your Cinco de Mayo fun is over, keep the celebration going with a full week of Goodwill sales, thanks to Goodwill Industries’ Week! Here’s the plan:
- Monday, May 6 – 25%-off Ladies’ Bottoms
- Tuesday, May 7 – 25%-off Men’s Bottoms
- Wednesday, May 8 – 25%-off Kids Attire
- Thursday, May 9 – 25%-off Men’s & Ladies’ Tops
- Friday, May 10 – 25%-off Wares
- Saturday, May 11 – 25%-off Pocketbooks, Shoes & Accessories for Mom

The poster is made from a black background. In this background, a photo and a title and sub-title are inserted.
With the title with the capital letter, we give the idea that we want to affirm what we are saying and that it is urgent to stop.
The sub-title “human trafficking” is separated by a red line as if the goal to end human trafficking is marked.
Then the photo of a woman tied up with open hands and a sad look is like an urgent request for help, mixed with the black background shows that people who suffer from human trafficking are alone if no one helps to stop.In the photograph my sister (sister of the poster’s author) was used in order to show how human trafficking can happen to anyone.Please come to this event.
Come out to sip, shop, and dine for a cause!

One of the easiest ways to help reduce atmospheric carbon is by planting trees. And one of the best ways to increase the planting of trees is to reward the individuals who plant them. AGA is the first organization to develop a way to reward every single person who helps to reduce atmospheric carbon. We accomplish this through the use of our Three Proof System.
Any Donations are used for improving our Technology Platform in the 3 Proof System, this in turn helps improve Biosphere.

Conference report on research into the state of Christian engagement with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (Focus on the UK). Reports on interviews with stakeholders and quantitative research using page counts on church web domains. Findings include low levels of engagement by UK churches with the SDGs. Much higher engagement by international church bodies and Faith-based Development Organisations. A comparison with other organisations shows some fossil fuel companies with higher SDG page counts than most churches. Future research should include analysis of actual activity by churches not just that reported using the SDG language.
