Hi. As I go on the road to finalize the da.u.de 2010 products, I'll share some of my journey with you with some vlogs. Enjoy.

This SUN Oct 4th, 25% of sales will be donated to Philippines Flood Relief

I am Filipina.

As you all may know, Philippines was recently hit by a catastrophic typhoon storm leaving many Filipinos homeless and in need.  My family back home are doing alright.  Thanks to postings from close friends like Dan Gil, Carlos Celdran, Coleen Niguidula, among many others, I have gotten a glimpse of the devastation. In light of this, I have decided to do my small part by donating 25% of the proceeds from this Sunday's sale to the Philippine Flood Relief. I wish I was there in Manila to volunteer but instead, I feel we can do a bit of something even from a far.

I only have a few items left from the last collection and I have collected a handful of what was left in the San Francisco store. All purchases made from the market this weekend on W76th and Columbus Avenue plus any online sales this weekend will help with their plight. 

W76th and Columbus Ave NYC

Trains 1,2,3, B,C to 72nd.

11am to 6pm.

Hope you can find something you can wear and at the same time help with my Filipino brethren and sistren.

Sincerely,

Renee
