The silent auction at Shop for Success

You have three more days to take advantage of the deals at Shop for Success, the pop-up shop fundraiser for Dress For Success going on this weekend in L.A.’s Westwood neighborhood.

I dropped by the opening night party last night, where celebrities such as Jaime Pressley were on hand to encourage the crowd to shop for a good cause.

The sale includes women’s and men’s apparel and accessories, including plus sizes from more than 100 brands, including Black Halo, Elizabeth and James, David Meister, French Connection, Velvet, DL 1961 and Henri Bendel. There's also a vintage section with some sweet designer finds.

All the proceeds from the sale go directly to Dress for Success’ programs to provide career development tools and support for disadvantaged women land and retain a job. The international nonprofit hosts free workshops, such as a financial literacy workshop to help women learn how to manage their money once they’ve secured a job.
