You've texted your donations to the Haiti relief fund (hey, every little bit helps!), retweeted dozens of messages to spread the word, called in to numerous telethons, etc. So unless you're ready to ship off your next paycheck to the cause (if you are -- awesome!), it can be frustrating to feel hopeless once you've already donated what you feel financially comfortable with. But good news -- there is something else you can do to give back: SHOP! The Tucker Paisley "Love For Haiti" scarf gives 10% of its proceeds to the American Red Cross for Haiti relief, and has already been ordered by the likes of Christina Aguilera and Lacey Chabert. Not only is it totally cute -- lightweight and perfect for spring -- but it also makes for a great Valentine's Day gift for anyone who's also looking for new ways to give back. Visit the Tucker Paisley site to order!

There's nothing like a benefit fashion show to make you feel good for once about all the time and money you invest in your love of clothes! The Seam Collective, a NYC-based alliance dedicated to the advancement of female designers, sponsored the Spring/Summer 2010 Forte Charity Fashion Show, which took place last week, boasting Project Runway season 5 alum Kenley Collins as the headliner. 50% of ticket proceeds went to support Gilda's Club, a program that raises money for cancer patients and their families. Alongside Kenley, who presented a chic Amelia Earheart-inspired collection, emerging designers Sheila Frank, Elizabeth Rynish, and Marissa Erskine also presented their Ready To Wear lines to the event's eager turnout. We especially love Sheila Frank's button-up romper and Elizabeth Rynish's swirled paint patterns! Check out the slideshow for some pictures from the runway!
