I’m pushing up this early Fun, Free, Friday so that it ends up posting on Thursday (at least in some places) and word of several charitable outlets and retailers can be spread.
I wanted to take a moment to remember our friends in Japan. A few bloggers have banned together for a blogging day of silence on Friday and I will take part as well.
If you can, please give to those that have lost so much so suddenly. Red Cross and Shelterbox are great ways to start.
Donate and shop
1. Alexis Bittar is giving away 100% of his proceeds from this weekend and next weekend (remember he is a CFDA Accessories Designer of the year winner).
2. In addition, Corter has made these simple leather bracelets “For Japan” here and 100% of proceeds will be donated to Japan relief.
3. Anna Sui has come up with a few t-shirts here for Japan and 100% of proceeds will go to disaster relief. I like this men’s shirt.
4. Tory Burch also has a t-shirt here which is very much in the for Japan with love theme. All net proceeds go to the American Red Cross.
5. Rebecca Minkoff is giving $100 of every red handbag purchase to the Red Cross. Start exploring options here.
6. Nanette Lepore is giving away 10% of all proceeds from internet and boutique sales to the Japanese Red Cross Society (March 31 – April 3)
In other charitable shopping news, you were going to shop anyway, also consider shopping at Gap, Banana Republic or Old Navy this weekend. Click here, pick a charity, receive 30% off your purchase and 5% goes to a charity of your choice. Gap has done a great job of making their Give & Get a frequent shopping/charity event.
Hope you have a fabulous weekend lovelies!
this is a lovely idea xo

It is just such a tragedy :'(
so proud of the blogosphere and everything they’re doing to help Japan! For Japan With Love has raised over $50,000!! That’s amazing!
Japan needs all the love and help from the rest of us. Very proud to be part of this inspiring community 🙂
Good round-up of stuff you can do 🙂 I ordered a couple things from Forever 21 the other day because they were giving money to Japan. I think they raised over $2 million!
