Looking for a Gorgeous ECO Shirt This Summer?


I have another great ECO friendly company for you.  Enjoy Karma is a Eco Boutique that you can shop by your Cause.  Whether you want to buy Organic, ECO, USA Made, one of a kind, and more you can find great prices and companies you can be proud to support.


Enjoy Karma sent me one of their new lines of summer clothing.  This is the Luna Claire Peggy Fair Trade Tank.  I absolutely love the light weight material making it easy and comfortable to wear, even in hot and humid temperatures. 
"Are you looking for a fun and comfortable tank top for the nice weather? The peggy tank has the perfect mix between casual comfort and style. You could wear it for so many occasions. The back straps have a cross detail and along the bottom there is ties that bring another unique piece to this tank. This tank is made in Tailand under fair trade practices and environment."~~Enjoy Karma




I have really enjoyed wearing my new tank so much!  The black strip at the bottom can be worn longer pulled over your hips, or higher for your style comfort.  I have worn this tank with jeans and dressed it up to volunteer at the school with black pants and a light cotton jacket.  This weekend I plane on wearing it with a pair of jean shorts for a very relaxed and comfortable look.  We are going to be at the Gym for a few hours while my daughter practices for her upcoming Gymnastic meet.  The tank has a soft silky feel, not stiff, making it comfortable for everyday use and dressing it up for special occasions.  Even though the tank is gorgeous, I love that the shirt was made under fair trade practices and with concern for the environment. 

Everything we do in processing and manufacturing our clothing affects the environment and our bodies.  Companies making fashionable clothing with the lease amount of impact on the environment are what I am supporting. 

Why do I support ECO clothing? 
It is important to be thoughtful of the products you purchase and put on your body.  So often clothing has been treated and processed with toxic chemicals in the growing, processing, and/or manufacturing of that product.  These toxins then get on our skins and cause allergies, reactions, and travel through the skin into our body.  Not to mention the run off of these chemicals getting in the land and water as they are manufactured, harming the environment.  Those chemicals then get in our drinking water and food.  What can we do?  Look for ECO companies that care about their impact.

LVR Eco Company Making Yoga A Hot Fashion


I am a crunchy momma!  I love my whole foods, natural lifestyle, green living, and living stress free with yoga.  My husband jokes that I am always in my yoga gear and I tell him that it's the best clothing ever made!  I was excited to hear that LVR was going to be sending me a pair of Organic Yoga Pants to review and sponsor for our Green Earth Event.  

They sent me pair Organic Fold Over Yoga Pants- French Terry.  I fell in love with them right away.  The extra fabric that folds down over my hips is comfortable and stylish, the pants fit my legs perfectly, and then flare at the ankle.  I am a little short so I just trimmed the bottoms to fit my height.  You never notice that I shorten the pants at all.  They are absolutely comfortable and I have been practically living in them.  

While the yoga pants are stylish, comfortable, and practical, I have more to tell you about them and the company!  
 
Designed and handmade in Los Angeles, so they are made in the USA, they are produced with the highest quality with minimal impact on the environment.  No matter your style you can find bright, relaxed, vintage, and more of the styles you are looking for.  They make tops, wraps, pants, and dresses for casual and active lifestyles.  Did I mention the clothing is organic?  Why is Organic Important!

This ECO friendly company also likes to give back through conservation.  In 2011 LVR partnered with ARCAS, which is an animal rescue center in Guatemala.  Every month the company donates a portion of their revenue to the rescue center for rehabilitation and release of the wild animals.  So each purchase will be helping this cause!  You can check out their Donation Timeline here.  I love when a company cares about conservation and protecting the environment.  You can read more about their earth friendly mission on eco clothing here.  

Personally, I feel really good about wearing clothing that means so much more than comfort and style.  When I wear these pants I know they are helping the environment, better for my skin, and helping to reach out and help with causes I support.  While ARCAS helps with many animals, I want to help them with the sea turtle hatchery below.  Please take the time to watch the short video below, and be happy that this company is helping in this cause through your purchases, WIN WIN!

Where can you find LVR?  Of course on their website, Facebook, and twitter, but also in high -end boutiques and yoga studios across the US, Canada, Japan, UK, and Middle East.  
Check out there Events and Calendar. 
Where have they been Featured in the Press?

 We just got done reading Turtle Tide, which you can see my review on Saturday!  I thought it perfect that I am talking to my kids about Sea Turtle and conservation efforts that we can do and I see this piece on LVR's blog site!  Thank YOU, LVR for your compassion and efforts that are helping. 
I personally LOVE that when I buy these awesome organic clothing, I am also helping with these conservation efforts!  You can too!
