Good news shopping fiends (i.e. all us Fab ladies) - Seventh on Sale is back!

It has been reported that the famous charitable sample sale, founded by the CFDA and Vogue Magazine in 1990, will soon be holding public shopping days as well as eBay auctions. The location for the black-tie gala and the shopping event hasn't been disclosed, but it is going to begin on November 15 and will continue until December 6. The goal this time around is to raise double the amount (a whopping $1.7 million) that they raised in 2005. Proceeds will benefit HIV/AIDS organizations.

There will be no shortage of items to buy as over 300 companies are expected to donate merchandise. Tickets for the public shopping days, November 16-18, are expected to cost $25. If you don't live in NYC, be sure to visit 7thonSale.eBay.com starting November 10 to score big. It's for a good cause, after all!
