Alexander McQueen is just one of many fashionistas, musicians, world leaders, and other assorted stars to lend their support to the Whatever It Takes initiative. Sales of the celebrity designed accessories, like this funky striped wallet, benefit the creator's charity of choice. For Alexander that's 21st Century Leaders, an organization which distributes funds to a wide range of charities concerned with education, health care, ending poverty, and more.

Altruistic motives aside, this purse isn't as luxurious as most Alexander McQueen creations but it does have its own sense of style. The gray and black striped canvas finish has an appealing unisex look, making it appropriate for no-nonsense ladies and their lads. A playful screen-printed pilot leaves a banner streaming behind him, which proudly boasts the Alexander McQueen name. His moniker is there again in the autograph. It's obvious branding, but when it's done as playfully as this it's hard to mind.

The silky lined interior features 12 handy credit card slots, plus an extra clear slip for your driver's license or proof of age card. The zippered pocket gives you a safe space for storing loose change, while the open pocket is perfect for notes and receipts.

At just $30, this Alexander McQueen wallet is a great way for bargain hunters to support a charity, and own one of the famed designer's pieces.

Some of the world's leading designers and celebrities have teamed up with 21st Century Leaders for Whatever It Takes, a unique charity art project which looks to make a global difference.

The concept is simple. Every participant donates an artwork which symbolizes hope. From this inspiring creative work, "merchandise with meaning" is created. The goods take all forms: clothing, homewares, cosmetics, artworks, and the amazing Bags for Life.

Each beautiful bag is ethically produced using environmentally-friendly fair-trade methods. Then proceeds from the handbag benefits charitable causes specifically chosen by the designer or celebrity who created it.

The Bags for Life collection includes purses from designers Stella McCartney, Georgio Armani, and Alexander McQueen, the multi-talented Gwen Stefani, model Heidi Klum, and soul songstress Joss Stone. They have created bags in a range of styles, shapes and colors to suit all tastes. The stars will distribute the proceeds from their purse sales amongst The United Nations Refugee Agency UNHC and 21st Century Leaders.

The Whatever it Takes philosophy is all about giving a little to achieve a lot. Bags for Life totes start from just £9.99, yet the movement aims to raise at least $3 million over the next three years. If you'd like to help them achieve this goal, make sure you log on to the website to discover these gorgeous bags.
