Fashion Editor Daniel Saynt Donates His NY Fashion Week Seats to Haitian Relief

Interesting idea just arrived via email press release.

New York – Daniel Saynt of The Fashionably Independent (FashionIndie.com) is asking New York designers to help in his efforts for Haitian relief. The Editor of the popular fashion source is asking designers to allow him to donate his invitations to New York Fashion Week to raise funds for HEAL HAITI, a charity that is currently mobilizing efforts to bring food, shelter and support to those in the earthquake ravaged country.

The tickets will be made available for auction beginning February 1st for one full week on CharityBuzz.com. The proceeds will be given directly to HEAL HAITI, an effort by the US Fund for UNICEF and The American Red Cross.

“This is only a small effort but I’m hoping to bring some help to those in need,” said Daniel Saynt. “I have faith that designers will step up and allow us to provide Haitians with some much needed assistance.”

Daniel Saynt, Editor-In-Chief of FashionIndie.com, will be personally handling the management of all donations. You can reach him directly at (646) 715-4551 or by email at saynt@fashionindie.com.

All mitts are off when you present Mom with this treasure from pre-dotbomb days.  Blue, White, Pink, even initials are available.   But why stop there?

Aristabrat offers a complete collection for $299, which includes clippers, pacifier and rattle.  A cheap knockoff of the real diamond set Brangelina received?  Perhaps.  But it isn’t nice to look a gift horse in the mouth.

NOTD: Cadillac Nails

Sinful Colors: Call You Later and Show Me The Way, Gold Striping Tape.
cadillac_nails

Green is hot right now, so this nail is in hommage to everything ’70s – Avocado paint, metallic striping, and an updated version of the Cadillac Coup deVille via Snoop Doggy Dog.

I’ve got this look on my ring finger right now, with the solid green on the other nails.
