| The bidding grew heated for auction items which included the opportunity to have your favorite furry friend featured on a Times Square billboard, two tickets, hotel and airfare to the 2014 Primetime Emmy awards and dinner for six at the legendary Rao’s restaurant, designated by Forbes as “the toughest reservation in the country – if not the world.” Other noteworthy auction items included a jaw-dropping diamond and ruby Hope Collar crafted by London jewelers, a diamond encrusted David Yurman cuff, a coveted VBH black satin evening clutch, an up-to-the-minute Michael Kors handbag and a $1,000 gift certificate to the über-stylish SoHo boutique, Private Stock. |
