Personal Advertisement: Evy's Tree Giveaway

Oh yes, it's another giveaway. So in spite of my LOOOONG absence from the blogosphere, I am once again here and typing away. Leave it to my friend Amy to find a way to get me blogging again. But it's for an awesome reason!

Evy's Tree is doing a giveaway. These are gorgeous, addictive, comfortable, and useful embellished hoodies. Those of you who know that I live in Hawaii may think to yourself; really? Is the weather in Hawaii cool enough for a hoodie? That's what I wondered myself...and then when I got my first one I found that yes, many nights it gets cool enough to wear a hoodie! And now that we are in our winter season, sometimes our days/nights are rainy and chilly and these hoodies are PERFECT. The way she designs them, they can be dressed up (with an accompanying gorgeous handmade brooch) or down (without the brooch, add a denim skirt!). As a nursing mommy, I find them ridiculously convenient and it makes me not want to wear anything else because these make nursing so easy. The high-quality hoodies are comfortable and they last well, even through the multiple washings I put them through after they get baby pee, spit-up, and poo on them!

Here is one of the original Evy's Tree hoodies, the Whimsey, showing my little baby bump at Ala Moana Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.


And here is the baby bump herself! This hoodie was sooooo comfy to wear in the hospital; looking decent for pictures, being easy for nursing, and getting compliments from the nurses!


The Army Green Simple (minus the brooch) on a cool day in Hawaii. Emma tucked her toes into the pockets!


The Army Green Simple with the Mrs. Darcy brooch. Sorry for the horrendous lighting; it was at a dark & romantic Italian dinner with my handsome hubby!

Do yourself a favor. Save your money and buy one. They are MUCH better quality and style than anything even similar that you will find in your local mall, and in the meantime you'll be supporting a hardworking mom who is trying to stay home with her kids. And until you save enough to buy one, enter her giveaway and maybe you'll win one!

And by the way, the headwraps seen in two of the pics (black and purple) are two of the wonderful creations from another awesome person, my cousin Charity Morgan of Dainty Button. The purple one is one of my favorites; it's the Carol of Courage Domestic Violence headwrap. Purple is the color of Domestic Violence Awareness and a portion of the proceeds from this wrap (and its matching headband) actually benefit a domestic violence survivor.
