On Thursday, Dec. 6, Lucky, the award-winning shopping and style magazine, kicked off LUCKY SHOPS 2012 with a VIP charity night, hosted by Grammy® Award-winning recording artist, Jennifer Hudson. Hudson was joined by Megan Hilty, Amy Carlson, Claire Coffee, and Sami Gayle, among others who shopped and walked the red carpet. A portion of the event’s proceeds will go to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City helping those affected by Hurricane Sandy, in addition to Hudson’s personal charity, the Julian D. King Gift Foundation.Check out more pictures after the jump! For more information, please visit LuckyShops.com
