IMarE Boutique Owner Surprises Cancer Patient with Makeover, Photoshoot, and Special Dinner

On Monday, October 28th, Martha Elmore, owner of IMarE Boutique, hosted a heartwarming event for Mrs. Yolanda K. Davis, a cancer patient battling Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Partnering with Pretty Girls With Cancer, Elmore helped uplift Davis, whose journey has been marked by illness and a loss of confidence due to chemotherapy. Expecting a simple wardrobe refresh, Davis was instead treated to a surprise glam session by hairstylist CiCi Mason and makeup artist Dawn Aisha. The day continued with an emotional photoshoot, leaving Davis overwhelmed with joy and gratitude.

Yolanda’s daughter was by her side as she began her styling session with Martha Elmore, trying on an array of pink outfits in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. After completing the styling session, Yolanda was whisked away to a glamorous photoshoot with photographer DJ Young Samm and videographer Tazer of Tazers World. As the photoshoot wrapped up, Martha Elmore and her team surprised Yolanda with a special gift sponsored by Chanel. They also revealed that she and her husband would be treated to an all-expenses-paid dinner at The Warwick.
