DULUTH -- Ladies, if you're planning to hit the town this weekend, why not do it in the name of a good cause?

On Saturday, Bellissima Studios of Lilburn is hosting its second annual Pink-a-Licious party at Purple Rain to benefit the Young Survival Coalition Tour de Pink Bike Ride for breast cancer.

"I've always supported breast cancer events, but about four years ago I decided I wanted to do something different so decided to support the YSC Tour de Pink Bike Ride," said Sharon Gray, owner of Bellissima Studios. "This is now my way of doing something fun and still supporting a great event through my own event."

This year's event is hosted by Gray, KISS 104's Twanda Black, Q93 New Orleans' Shay Moore and local personality Rashan Ali. There will also be a silent auction, hula hoop contest, jump rope contest and pole party giveaway for 10 women, plus$1 massages, a mini pole class and demonstration, and a zumba session.

According to a release, "All funds raised at the Pink-a-Licious party go directly to the Young Survival Coalition of Atlanta Affiliate. This nonprofit organization supports breast cancer survivors, medical professions and other supporters of breast cancer."

The dress code is strictly pink. Attendees must RSVP before attending the event. For more information about the studio, visit studiobellissima.com.
