Volunteering is the perfect way to give of yourself. In these difficult economic times the need becomes even greater. You focus away from your own troubles and concentrate on others. Somehow your worries melt away in the simple act of service. You can give whatever you can, an hour here or there, in a nursing home or perhaps an animal shelter; or collect warm clothes for donation. Do you know a neighbor going through a rough patch? Does the elderly woman on your street need her sidewalks shoveled when it snows? There are myriad ways to help. Of course the truth is that no one benefits more than you for in the giving is the gift.

To donate to a foodbank, find one near you at: Feeding America

Kate Spade's Hand in Hand Colorblock Mittens - $95

Since 2005, kate spade new york and Women for Women International have been working together to promote micro-enterprises for women in the still recovering communities throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. The enterprise is the next step in an ongoing product development partnership over the past four years. Women for Women International will provide the training in knitting for the women, with creative direction from kate spade new york.

Knitting, a traditional skill in the region that has passed through generations of women, is now a source of income for these enterprising women. This partnership has helped Bosnian graduates transform their traditional handcrafts into high-fashion winter accessories. Rabija Mujalo, a participant of the training program and current employee of kate spade new york, says "I earned nearly as much money knitting at home in my spare time as my son who works full time in a factory."

Secret Thoughts

Secret Thoughts Coat (No. 2488).
One had to keep up appearances in those days. The fans expected it of her. So did the studios.

But when nobody was looking she wore an unaffected coat like this.

And she would walk the little gravel path near the ocean in it, her hands inside the pockets for warmth, thinking her own private thoughts that may not have been much more complicated than what she had on.

In later years she’d walk around New York City in it, still in her private world.

She never owned an evening dress, or wore makeup. Yet she was, by most standards, the most elegant (and mysterious) woman in the world. Not that she cared.

In later years she’d walk around New York City in it, still in her private world.

What she had, money could never buy. (And she had money.)

Secret Thoughts Coat (No. 2488). Simple, mid-thigh length cut of rich wool/cashmere. Full, straight sleeves. One real horn button in front. Pull the big, well-shaped hood over your head and slip your hands into the deep pockets when you want to be alone. Jacket is unlined.

One real horn button in front.

Color: Incognito Dark Olive.
