Wrap Up Against Poverty 2012

Kelly Holgate

Winter isn't the only thing nipping at our toes, as London Fashion Week is fast upon us. No sooner have we hung up our party dresses than the next fabulous array of Autumn/ Winter charmers are doing their thing on the catwalk.

But for many of us fashion isn't a necessity; we don't need to splurge our money on new outfits, and we never stop to think that someone somewhere actually needs clothing to stay warm during these bitter months. However, the lovely folks at Elizabeth Finn Care have put together a fabulous celebrity charity auction, with the proceeds going towwards those in finanicial difficulties who simply cannot afford to but essential clothes.

The fabulously named Wrap Up Against Poverty' campaign was first launched in 2011, and sees well known faces, such as Sienna Miller, Kimberley Walsh, Dame Helen Mirren,Lisa Snowdon and Katie Price donating gorgeous items of clothing usually only seen by us member of the public when flicking through a magazine.

Former model and presenter, Lisa Snowdon is fully behind the cause saying "It's unbelievable to think that so many people go without warm clothes through the winter, and by bidding auction everyone can help change lives for the better."

The auction starts today (26th January) and finishes on the 26th of February. Log on to www.elizavethfinncare.org.uk/WrapUp
