Late adds to Lei Chic's guide to the weekend's best events

Weekend Picks - Saturday, March 2, 2013

Lei Chic Buy
Bags to Riches
What:
Reserve your spot at Sacs and the City to score luxe bags (like this Max&Co. envelope clutch, left), clothes, and more while helping local women and teenage girls in need. In addition to a silent auction, the Junior League of Honolulu is shaking things up with partner DFS Galleria Waikiki – expect a how-to styling session followed by a haute fashion show featuring spring designer looks and original pieces by University of Hawaii design students.
When: Saturday, March 16, 10 a.m-1:30 p.m.
Where: Sheraton Waikiki, 2255 Kalakaua Ave.
Details: $125 per person. Preview the three-course menu and silent auction items, then purchase tickets here.

Lei Chic Shop
The Ultimate Frock Star
What:
Betsey Johnson’s original pink-tulle-and-glitter-packed line may be gone (may it rest fashionably in peace) but the hip 70-year-old designer is still going strong. Case in point: her new lower-priced line of "pretty and punk" dresses, like the one shown right, now available for pre-order online, featuring sweet, slimming silhouettes in punchy prints and colors.
Details: Pre-orders made here will be shipped out on March 15.

Wardrobe (and Other) Updates
– Will H&M's e-commerce site launch in June as reportedly leaked by a loose-lipped employee? Possibly. Or not. According to Racked, the fashion retailer does "not have a set date at this time."
[For all you Downton Abbey fans] Another cast member has flown the coop. Siobhan Finneran, who plays Lady Cora's maid, Sarah O'Brien, will not return for the show's fourth season. Her character's departure will take place off camera.
