cheap uggCELEBS PUT THE FIZZ INTO CHARITY
We're going to see limited-edition handbag-size Diet Coke mini-cans on our desks if we have to load the office vending machine ourselves. Four designs by Sadie Frost, Denise Van Outen, Alesha Dixon (of Mis-teeq) and Jenny Frost depict their ideas of sanctuary, to help raise awareness of homelessness for the charity Shelter. They illustrate what each one thinks is safe and supporting: a chain of women friends, a garden, meditation, a beach. The Shelter cans will be on-shelf from 1 November.
In addition, accessories whiz Pauric Sweeney has created four desirable one-off Canbags inspired by the celebs' designs. These, along with four glam photo-portraits of the girls by Amelia Troubridge, will be auctioned on eBay from 6-16 December (all proceeds to Shelter).
