We usually have zero interest in kids with trust funds (well, not the snotty ones, at least). But the Boston-based nonprofit Children’s Trust Fund is a cause we can’t help but get behind. Its second-annual Leap into Spring Fashion Show at Vinalia
(34 Summer Street, Boston, 617.737.1777) will raise funds for the
organization’s parenting programs to combat child abuse and neglect,
while supporting Massachusetts designers. Featured fashions and jewelry
will include handmade wire-and-stone necklaces from DiSpagna Designs
LTD, chunky baubles from Catalina de la Torre, as well as
spring-inspired, feminine frocks by Emis Couture and funky knits from
Blue Alvarez. Proceeds from ticket sales and the night’s live auction
will benefit the kids. From 8:30 to 9:30 p.m., sip cocktails courtesy
of Pinnacle Vodka (or opt for the booze-free water bar from SmartWater)
and nibble hors d’oeuvres. Spring rocks the runway till 12:30 a.m. Get
tickets ($30 or $40 for premium access, including a swag bag) at www.anthemevents.com or upon arrival. ...
