Kelly Rutherford of Gossip Girl fame was getting her charity on by hosting a holiday shopping event to benefit Safe Horizon. BSCkids was invited and we made sure to not only drop off toys, but also look around and mingle with the other guests which included a fair amount of NFL football players, models and people in the fashion industry. The clothing at Façonnable’s 5th Ave store was absolutely stunning and the other vendors that attended had a bunch of items for sale. We were impressed by Croton Watches, they had some nice stuff.
What I found to be great was that Kelly Rutherford was accessible through-out the whole event, she was not a sponsor in name only, she was also shopping herself. She also was the center of attention as she gave a great speech on Safe Horizon and what a wonderful job that they do. It was nice that Kelly also spoke with almost everyone at the event, we got a chance to speak with her about Safe Horizon and she was very excited for the work that they do. Kelly also let us take a bunch of pictures of her shopping at the event as well, which you can see below in the gallery. Very nice to see the stars giving back.
