What I Wore // swim day style and a sseko giveaway
Hey there! Today is another 100 degree day outside, and I thought I'd share these photos from our last visit to the lake on Monday. I posted about it on Instagram, but we really love doing Saturday type activities on Mondays because there are no crowds to speak of, there aren't any lines for the diving board or the sno cone hut (and no wild kids in your outfit photos) , there's no traffic, and it's so much easier to have a really fun day. I think I may have Martin trade Monday's for Saturday's work for the rest of the Summer! sorry babe:)
I'm partnering with Sseko Designs to help raise awareness for their wonderful "30 days, 30 ways to Educate Woman in Africa" campaign. "In the Ugandan school system, a nine-month gap exists for students between the end of secondary school and the beginning of university. This break is designed as a time for college-bound students to raise money for their education, but in this male-dominated society many women fall through the cracks, failing to find fair work and finish their education. That’s where Sseko Designs comes in. The company that sells handmade sandals was founded to provide a safe, supportive place for women to earn money for their college degrees."
wear: hat: c/o Target // necklace: H&M// cover-up: Tj-maxx // bikini: c/o TRIANGL // bracelet - thrifted // bangle: c/o Sseko Designs, shorts: Target // sandals: t-strap c/o Sseko Designs -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sandals I'm wearing today are part of a that line of shoes that employ woman of Uganda to break the cycle of poverty, to empower them, and help them further their education. Each pair of sandals is handcrafted in Uganda by those amazing woman of strength, and each of those ladies has a story! I was sent a bangle with the name of one of those woman on it and a bit about her: Stella has an adventurous spirit and a great sense of style. She hopes to travel the world one day, and plans to become a civil engineer.
