One of the best designer sales (for charitable purposes) takes place next month in Los Angeles. Divine Design is worth adding to your calendar.

Two years ago I picked up a $375 skirt for $75; it’s swooshiness never fails to make me smile, so I know I’ll be getting years and years of use out of it.  I also grabbed several $90 tank tops for just $10 apiece.

What:

Divine Design is an annual pre-holiday shopping event featuring designer clothes, shoes, cosmetics, and furniture. 100% of proceeds benefit Project Angel Food.

The designer items are the latest from trendy lines like Trina Turk,  Theory, Dolce & Gabbana,  Jimmy Choo, and Smashbox Cosmetics.
