OCRFA Super Saturday NY Hosted By Donna Karan, Kelly Ripa, and Gabby Karan De Felice @OCRF #OCRFASuperSaturday

Super Saturday NY has been our favorite Charity Event of the long list of annual Hamptons events for well over a decade now. In 2016, OCRFA’s Super Saturday events raised close to $3.5 million dollars. An event for the entire family combining fantastic shopping deals with a catered lunch, cocktails, raffle, kids activities and rides while supporting The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund Alliance.

 One hundred fifty prominent designers donated their wares to be sold at hugely discounted prices to support the cause. As the day progressed the prices dipped lower and guests including ours truly walked away, guilt free, with huge bags filed with designer accessories, apparel, and beauty products. 

Celebs in attendance included Hosts Donna Karan, Kelly Ripa, and Gabby Karan de Felice as well as June Ambrose, Joy Behar, Kelly Bensimon, Lorraine Bracco, Jonathan Cheban, Mayor Rudolph & Judith Guiliani, Star Jones, Elin Nordegren, Molly Sims, Kristen Taekman, Christy Turlington, Aida Turturro, Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney and more!….
