PHOTOS: Inside Victoria and David Beckham's designer charity shop sale
Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, Roberto Cavalli, D&G - these are just some of the swanky labels bargain-hunters took home from the Beckham's charity shop drop......
Celeb power pair Victoria and David Beckham generously donated 500 items of designer gear, including 100 pairs of Victoria's heels, to their local British Red Cross shop in Chelsea to raise cash for victims of the Philippines typhoon.
And today lots of eager bargain hunters descended on the West London Red Cross shop hoping to grab something!
David's dreamy D&G suits were priced at £125, jeans at £50, baseball caps at £25 and heels at £100.
One fashion blogger who braved the crowds managed to get grab Vic's lime green Cavalli jacket for just £175, while another fashion fan picked up a pair of Estilo heels for a cool £100.

Red Cross have said they're hoping to raise £40,000 from the sale.
Before the main event, Posh, 39, tweeted pictures of a huge pile of shoes and one of herself sitting on one of the many cardboard boxfuls of gear that will go towards the appeal fund for desperate survivors of Typhoon Haiyan.
She posted the message: “Proud to support @BritishRedCross #ShopDrop Donating clothes for #Haiyan survivors.”
Victoria, who spent last weekend sorting through her posh threads, said: “David and I are supporting the Red Cross campaign and we urge everyone in Britain to do the same.” Children’s charity UNICEF says evil traffickers are moving in to snatch orphans from the streets in typhoon-ravaged cities such as Tacloban.

HORRIFIC! Robbers raid students hostel, rape female student to coma
CALABAR- A Seventeen year old female student of the University of Calabar, name withheld, was raped to a state of coma by armed robbers who raided the hostel she and several other colleagues are living on Tuesday night in Calabar.
The robbers, according to a fair complexioned male student who gave his name as Ngoli, attacked the hostel located at Mount Zion Road/ Inyang Edem Street at about 2am and raped all the female students and carted away all their laptops and cell phones.
“They stared by firing warning shots into the air to warn us that they came for serious business and thereafter went from room to room battering everybody and raping the female students one after the other”.
He said the girl that went into coma was still a virgin that made all the robbers want to have a taste of her. “The first one to pounce on her announced to the rest that she was still a virgin and that made everyone of them go after her and in the process she bled seriously yet they would not allow her go”.

24-yr-old boy nabbed for defrauding US couple of $42,497
LAGOS — Operatives of the Special Fraud Unit, SFU, Milverton Road, Ikoyi, Lagos have arrested a 24-year-old man who posed as a lady to defraud a United States of America couple of $42,497, purportedly for the purchase of a property in Lagos.
The suspect, identified as Olafinraye Adedamola, admitted the offence while being paraded yesterday.
He was said to have connived with a Malaysian lady to defraud the couple. The Malaysian lady, according to him, was his Facebook friend, adding that he had intended to use the money to further his studies in a tertiary institution.
How he was arrested
Explaining how the artisan who trained in aluminum works was arrested, spokesperson for the unit, Ngozi Isintume-Agu, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, said: “An intelligence report dated September 24, 2013 from Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU), Abuja addressed to the Commissioner of Police, Special Fraud Unit (SFU) alleged that one Olafinraye Adedamola opened a USD Domiciliary Account No. 273/6980678251/0 with the Demurin, Ketu, Lagos Branch of Sterling Bank Plc and through suspicious circumstances, cumulative sum of USD 42,497 was paid into the account by unsuspecting victims abroad between August 13, 2013 and September 16, 2013.
“The suspected illicit inflows were followed by immediate cash withdrawals by the suspect who appeared to have no known affiliation with the international depositors.
“SFU operatives swung into action and investigation carried out on the domiciliary account revealed that $18,129.92 is still left in the account and a lien was immediately placed on the account.
“The suspect was traced to his house at 7, Agidi Road, Oshogun, Alapere, Ketu, Lagos but he evaded police arrest and his father, a proprietor of a moribund driving school, feigned ignorance of his son’s whereabouts. However, the fleeing suspect was later apprehended by the Police.
“Olafinraye Adedamola who posed as a lady named Janet was born in 1989 in Kosofe LGA Ketu, Lagos.
“An artisan who trained in construction of aluminum but currently a driving instructor in his father’s moribund driving school located in Ketu, Lagos claimed he met a Nigerian at a conference in Malaysia who introduced him to the victim who requested that he purchased property for him in Nigeria which was the basis for the disbursement of the money into his account and that he had already bought a building at Ogba, Ikeja for N4 million and that the documents were with him.”
According to him; “I posed as Janet on the Facebook, using a white woman’s photograph. I told the couple that I was an estate manager and convinced them to buy property in Lagos.
“Since they have not been to Nigeria, they asked us to meet elsewhere and when I stumbled on a business conference that was holding in Malasia, I booked the meeting.
“On reaching Malaysia, I told a Facebook lady friend to pose as Janet after telling her what to say. That was how the deal was struck and they paid the dollar equivalent of N3.4 million into my account. I intended to use the money to further my studies because I am determined to be a graduate. I used part of the money to travel again to Malaysia for leisure in August.
“My regret is that I was caught at the end because I used my genuine data to open the account. I guess it was because it is my first time.”
The suspect, according to Isintume-Agu, will be charged to court.
