The Audubon Society’s Women in Conservation Luncheon is one of the season’s most highly regarded environmental and social events. The Founding Chair of the Rachel Carson Awards is Allison Whipple Rockefeller, and this year’s deserving recipients are Reverend Canon Sally Bingham, L. Hunter Lovins and Janette Sadik-Khan. Ann Thompson, NBC News Chief Environmental Affairs Correspondent will be the Master of Ceremonies and special recognition will be given to “Women Greening the City.” For more information, please visit Audubon Women in Conservation.
For what to wear to a lovely spring luncheon, we went shopping at Bergdorf Goodman and Tiffany & Co., one of the generous sponsors, to assemble an ensemble that’s worthy of the natural world. The RED Valentino Floral Print Dress and coat are so perfect for this time of year, and we enhanced their impact by including the Villa Paloma Palm Earrings and Wide Trellis Bracelet. The soft colors make this an elegant outfit for a luncheon, wedding, cocktail party and all of your splendid spring soirées.

The Rachel Carson Award, presented annually at the Women in Conservation Luncheon, honors women whose considerable talent, expertise and energy greatly advance conservation locally and globally. The program was created for girls and women to discover the world of conservation and connect with the best and brightest women leaders in the environmental movement. The Audubon organization promotes education on important environmental issues, like climate change, clean air and water, wildlife preservation, and environmental justice. Beyond the annual Luncheon, Audubon’s Women in Conservation Program, in conjunction with Audubon’s Rachel Carson Awards Council, supports a wonderful website that connects women of all ages to extraordinary leaders in the environmental movement and the great environmental issues of our time.
