On September 20 through 23, Stuart Mesires of Ladybug Vintage jewelry will be co-hosting a fun and fabulous shopping event called FLAIR at 900 N. Michigan to benefit the Chicago Lighthouse. It is a four day sale of new and gently used high-end designer clothing and accessories. Stuart has put a call out to everyone hoping she can rustle up some high-end gently used donations for this benefit. If you've got what they need to make this fundraiser a diversified success, email Lighthouse and let them know.
