Yes, fashion can save the world.

Given the scope of the damage left by Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda, it's pretty admirable to see so many people sharing their individual talents and skill sets to come up with ways to help out those who were directly affected. I've seen businesses, artists, and lots of people in between roll up their sleeves (both literally and figuratively) and help out with relief. A clear sign that the good old spirit of bayanihan is alive and kicking in these parts.

The latest effort I'm sharing with you today comes from the world of fashion. In the wake of such disasters to affect a certain area, a lot of clothing gets donated. The thing is, not all clothes are seen to be appropriate for everyday use, especially for people who just got through a natural disaster. Fortunately, the Philippine Red Cross found a way to put those clothes to good use, through a pretty neat fundraiser called Aid Couture.

Old clothes previously donated will be washed, styled, and sold to the public, and proceeds raised from the sales will go towards getting vital supplies for the typhoon victims.

A whole lot of clothes will be up for grabs! Think about it like going thrift-shopping for a totally noble cause. So if you're in the mood to shop this weekend, head out to Alabang Town Center on November 16 and 17!

Send Help 2 Typhoon Yolanda Victims.

Again, you don't need me to tell you how bad the effects of Typhoon Yolanda have been. Instead, if you're up to helping out, here's another way you can do so while scoring some fresh kicks in the process.

We Legendary just got in their new delivery of Nike SBs. And in a rather apt matter of coincidence, the new "Send Help" SB Dunks were included. Designed once again in collaboration with artist/illustrator Todd Bratrud, these dunks feature a simple colorway complemented by purple cement print and neon green outsoles.

A portion of the total sales of the "Send Help 2" Dunks will be donated by We Legendary to NikeTalk.com to aid their relief efforts towards those affected by the typhoon. So if you're one of those SB heads who have been eagerly waiting for these to drop, now's your chance. And if other pairs catch your fancy as well, click the link below for a complete listing of what's dropping TODAY at We Legendary Ronac, Taft, and Kamuning.  

What's Dropping. 

Dine For A Cause at Yabu.

You don't need me to tell you just how bad Typhoon Yolanda made herself known to The Philippines. There's a lot of ways to help get things back up and running in the south, and I'm here to share with you one where all you have to do is eat.

For one day, all Yabu branches are donating 100% of their profits towards those affected by Typhoon Yolanda. Forget about those abs for a minute and bring a hearty appetite for katsu to your favorite Yabu branch on Wednesday, November 13, 2013.
