Laura Baldini sure has a lot of friends. She definitely won many more after raising a whopping amount for Cradles to Crayons, a nonprofit devoted to providing clothing essentials to homeless and low income families, at her private shopping cocktail reception at the Scoop NYC Boutique on Newbury Street. Dick Friedman, Kathy Burns, Amy Jacobs, Amber D'Amelio and Ashley Bernon were among the glitterati toasting champagne in celebration of their hot new purchases, all for a very important cause.
