With the oil spill getting bigger and bigger and more and more severe, it's no wonder charities have started to come forward to raise awareness and money for the environmental disaster. Enter Mignon Fagets 'In Mourning,' a special line of jewelry to honor the cause. The jewelry was created in order to raise money for clean-up efforts, and it "pulls together animal-centered pieces that Faget used in previous collections."
The jewelry features animals (mostly sea creatures) placed on a black ribbon to memorialize all the animals that have died as a result of the oil spill disaster. All profits from the Mignon Fagets 'In Mourning' collection will go to the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana.
