Do you love accessories?
How about supporting worthwhile charitable causes?
Now how about if we could combine those two interests…
You can!
The annual “Runway to Service” auction is a joint event between Mercedes Benz Fashion Week designers and the 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance.  Designers donate clothing and accessories right off the runway, which is then auctioned off to raise funds for the victims and family members of 9/11.
So what kind of goodies can you find at the online auction?
Let’s take a peek…

With all the gadgets we carry around on a daily basis, from our mobiles to our ipods, we never not know what the time of day is, but watches are always classic accessory pieces.  They can be dressy, casual, glitzy, oversized, brightly coloured and/or sporty but they’re always ‘in’. They also are great gift ideas since you don’t necessarily have to worry about anyone’s size, just their taste and lifestyle.
