TranquiliT by Kimberly Giveaway

It's Friday and time for our 3rd giveaway!

This week's prize comes from TranquiliT the eco-chic line that I model for! I purchased my 1st TranquiliT piece over five years ago (which I continue to wear and adore). You just never know where fashion will lead you:).

I ♥ TranquiliT because:

1. All designs are made from organic bamboo;
2. Garments are sewn locally in Washington, DC.; and
3. Kimberly donates a percentage of proceeds to charities that support women's creativity.

I could go on and on about how special & adorable this line is but I'll stop and introduce the prize pack. 

TranquiliT Prize Pack includes:

• a lilac all-in-one wrap dress
• an organic lavender sachet & fair trade tea
• a special surprise

Eco-Chic in Mexico

Earlier this week we returned from our honeymoon/1st year of marriage trip to the eco-chic beaches of Tulum, Mexico. Tulum is located along the east cost of the Yucatan Peninsula and is one of the last cities inhabited and built by the Mayans. We had a carefree time in our oceanside cabana (w/o electricity), biking, visiting the ruins, and eating queso tamales:). Of course kamau took hundreds of photos and I'll post an album soon. For now here's me cartwheeling along the sand just footsteps away from our room!
