THE GIFT OF GIVING BACK

Fashion for a cause has come a long way from the oversized cardboard fabric super tee slapped with a jumbo logo. It's heartwarming to see the emergence of  so many super cool, ethical & socially responsible brands making it so easy to buy gorgeous items while helping someone in need. Some of these items are created by artisans around the world providing jobs and long term solutions, while others donate proceeds from sales. I encourage you to check out their sites, read their story on how they're making a difference. Prepare to be inspired.

For the soundtrack to this edit I couldn't go past the original charity song. 1985- this is where we first saw how the power of celebrity could literally change the world.. So many legendary voices.  BAND AID: DO THEY KNOW IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME?
