31(squared) - Happy (early) Birthday To Me!

So, I married an awesome guy.  Really.  He bought me this hoodie for my birthday!  Of course the big day isn't until next week, but he let me open it early.


Now, this is not just any hoodie.  It's a hoodie from Love146's ReImagine collaboration with Imagine Goods, that literally does good for everyone that is involved in making it.  All the materials are repurposed from discarded clothing, the artisans in Cambodia that make them are paid a liveable wage, and all of the profits go towards fighting global human trafficking.  All in all, I think this makes a great addition into my 31 piece wardrobe for this month, and it really shows that the hubs knows exactly what's important to me in a piece of clothing.  It only seemed fitting to pair the hoodie with some of my other favorite accessories, like earrings that were a gift from another family member, secondhand ankle boots that I literally want to wear all the time, and bracelets from other companies devoted to ending modern-day slavery.  (Scroll down to the end for details on where these bracelets are from!)

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to celebrate a certain little girl's birthday!
