Lydia Place’s 10th Annual Handbags for Housing Bellingham’s most fashionable fundraiser and auction is back and better than ever! Lydia Place’s 10th annual Handbags for Housing event took place in person June 9 on the Barkley Village Green. The evening raises money to aid families experiencing homelessness in Whatcom County, and this year’s grand total was a whopping $125,000 — the biggest sum yet! The 2022 theme was “Big Lights, Fashion City,” and fashion show awardees include Cori Lovejoy (model of the year), Quinn and Foster (most cohesive collection), Social Fabric (most avant garde), Buffalo Exchange (best incorporation of handbag), and Third Planet (best incorporation of theme).
