The following news just in:
Gucci has continued its partnership with UNICEF this season in their 2006 Holiday campaign which will benefit UNICEF programs that aid children in Africa.
From November 21st to December 31st, Gucci will donate 20 percent of the sales from a luxurious collection of items designed by Gucci’s Creative Director, Frida Giannini. The proceeds will specifically benefit education and health services to children in Mozambique, where nearly three-quarters of a million children are directly affected by HIV/AIDS.
Hot stuff! It appears that companies have really fueled the awareness for the poorest of the poor recently. Bono’s Red Campaign is one of the big ones, involving a lot of ginormous corporations, like Limited and Apple. Learn more about the Gucci UNICEF campaign at FWD.

Somehow I can’t decide if I love or hate them…
I like the gold accented accesories but the bags are hideous ~ a fabric embroidered print that a grandmother could love.
OH MY GOD! I LOVEEE ALL OF ‘EM!!!!
somehow the embroidery works for me! i looks really christmas-y with the green and red tones!
I’m not feeling all the holly and glittery stuff. I could see my Grandma wearing it with her Santa sweater and matching stirrup pants. Not a good look.
The gold with the small holly accent I could do.
Gucci UNICEF – sounds a bit like an oxymoron!
But really these bags are fab….just think, you could buy the Gucci and feel great about supporting a charity.
lOVE THE CHERRIES
So do I!!!!!
