<p>Up-and-coming jewelry and evening handbag designer <a href="http://www.amandapearl.com" target="_blank">Amanda Pearl</a> creates exquisite, one-of-a-kind handbags, necklaces, earrings and bracelets which have been featured in Gossip Girl, <em>Elle </em>and <em>Town &amp; Country</em><span>. The collection only launched in February 08 and already has 13 <span>POS</span> locations in the US. </span></p>
<p>The &#8220;luxury evening accessories&#8221; line is inspired by the fashion and culture of the 50s and 60s . The style is described as &#8220;elegant yet refreshingly quirky.&#8221;</p>
<p>What makes the bags truly elegant though is the fact that through their &#8220;Bags in Action&#8221; program, Amanda Pearl actively donates her bags to auctions supporting causes that promote education, child welfare and/or the environment.</p>
<p>Some of the recent recipients include: <a href="http://www.heifer.org/" target="_blank"> Heifer.org</a>,  <a href="http://www.newyorkersforchildren.org/" target="_blank"> New Yorkers for Children</a>,  <a href="https://www.booksforkidsfoundatoin.org" target="_blank"> Books for Kids</a>, <a href="http://www.girlsincnworegon.org/" target="_blank">Girls Inc.</a>,  <a href="http://www.thefirstteeseattle.org/" target="_blank"> The First Tee</a> and <a href="http://www.wwf.org/" target="_blank"> World Wildlife Fund</a>. The company offers direct financial support to many of these charities as well.</p>
