beacon & brewster: Giving Back with Style

Independence Day may be over, but that doesn't mean we can't keep wearing classic, American pieces. Far from it! For example, you know that perfectly broken-in polo shirt you used to "borrow" from your dad, brother, or the cute lifeguard you met at the beach? Remember how soft it was, how it fit perfectly over a bikini or under a blazer? Eileen Sherman remembered, and she set out to re-create the summer favorite with a flattering, feminine cut. Sherman is the founder of beacon & brewster, a Boston-based business creating Cape Cod style polos and tees, all made in America.

In addition to creating high-quality shirts with a focus on fit, Sherman wanted to find a way for her line to give back. Each of beacon & brewster's variety of colors - blue, lilac, lime, lemonade & pink - corresponds with a charity, and 25% of each shirt purchased goes directly to your favorite cause! (Sales of the blue polo, above, will go to hospitals and other organizations researching the causes and cures of children's diseases, as well as to organizations dedicated to bringing joy to children living with disease.) Pick your favorite color, and enter to win a beacon & brewster polo below! And! You're also invited to beacon & brewster's launch party, Wednesday, July 17th, 6:00-9:00pm at Barney Fannings (99 Broad Street, Boston). There will be appetizers, drinks, gifts and giveaways, so come on by!

Classic style, alongside giving back. What's more American than that?
