Now, it is a little out of the ordinary for me to post looks of eyes only, but I wanted these to represent the cause, and also be wearable.. even if they are a little extreme for some of them. My favorites are the Autism one, as well as the Diabetes one. I am actually liking the purple ribbon one as well.



I guess I am now off to bed! Goodnight everyone! Thank you all for your support in raising awareness towards the various causes!
