You know how you go to events and spend all your time chatting with friends instead of perusing the silent auction tables? Yeah. Now, CharityBuzz.com is listing the goods in advance online, so no pricey benefit ticket necessary for the philanthropically-minded shoppers among us. Those to peruse right now: the goods on the block for next Tuesday's Henry Street Settlement benefit. A meet-and-greet with Bill Clinton? Your portrait taken by Pamela Hanson? A couture gown designed personally for you by Gilles Mendel? Tickets to the Cavalli and Missoni shows in Milan? (Thank you, Angela Mariani!) And! If you're an eco-friendly type, the Christie's Green Auction: BID to Save the Earth items have just gone live. They include a culinary tour of NYC, Paris, and Provence with Alain Ducasse, four nights at the Four Seasons Bali, and a line of bespoke necklaces unveiled especially for the occasion by Susan Rockefeller.
