At Gucci, (Somewhat) Unselfish Shopping

gucci-unselfish-shopping-bagThough it's been predicted that an Obama win would get people into stores, it's possible that many shoppers will still be spending warily. Consider Gucci's fourth annual special holiday collection to benefit UNICEF as the perfect rationalization to manage a thrifty mindset. Every purchase from the Tattoo Heart-themed collection (including this tote bag picture here) sends a whopping 25 percent of the proceeds to children, many of them orphans, affected by HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa. Gucci for UNICEF goes on sale November 19.
