    Colorful Stationaries from YOOBI @YoobiGives

    What a great concept! Yoobi is a new colorful and vibrant school supply brand that makes learning fun while also giving back. Yoobi means “one for you. one for me”—for every Yoobi item you buy, a Yoobi item is donated to a classroom in need right here in the U.S. It’s that simple!

    Many kids in the U.S. don’t have access to basic school supplies, unless teachers pay for them out of their own pocket. We don’t think that’s right and we bet you don’t either!

    Yoobi believes that it should be a right, not a privilege, for every child in the U.S. to have creative and colorful tools for learning. Together we can make it happen.

    PicsArt_1374267757872I received a set of SwaggerTag I.D. Tags recently, and they couldn’t have come at a better time, as I was travelling to Zambia the very next day! I wasn’t sure how they worked in the beginning, but once I figured them out, I was very pleased, and I love love love that they personalized my tags with the HeyDoYou logo! (Thank you!!)

    I didn’t know how they would hold up during my 24 hours of flying and 3 flight transfers, and to be honest I figured they’d be destroyed by the time I got off the plane, but I was pleasantly to surprised to see them intact and without a scratch! I need more of these for everything!!

    Super Cute: Summer and Travel-Ready with LindsayPhillips @SwitchFlops

    20130605_155742I was thrilled to receive my Lindsay Phillips Liz Canvas Ballet Flats, and have been wearing them pretty much everyday since. They are perfect for travelling, totally necessary for staying cute during the hot summer months, they’re also super comfy and did I mention how cute they are???

    20130605_155802My favourite feature about these shoes is that they are so versatile. The embellishments on top of the shoe are interchangeable so I can go from fun and floral to festive in seconds without having to by new shoes. All I have to do is snap the embellishments off, and snap on lets say, the florals, clusters of baubles, or embellished ornaments depending on my mood, and I’m good to go! The snap-on feature also makes it easier to change my look from day to night or from work to a fun (troublesome lol) night out on the town.

     I love these!

    “Lindsay Phillips, a 26 year old entrepreneur and creator of SwitchFlops and SnapShoes, entered the business after her high school art project- a ceramic flip flop shoe- garnered an amazing response from locals in Lindsay’s home town.  Now Lindsay’s SwitchFlops and SnapShoes are carried in 2,500 stores in the USA, Europe, Australia and Japan.”
    20130702_092453I traveled recently, and decided to give these flats the true comfort test. My feet always swell when I fly, so no matter how comfortable the shoe is to begin with, I always end up with sore feet at the end of my trip, so I was curious to see how my Liz flats would hold up against 22 hours of flying… My verdict? They were perfect. It felt like I wasn’t even wearing shoes! Despite slightly swollen feet from flying, I arrived in style and with no pain or discomfort whatsoever. The Liz flat is a winner!

    You can check out more of Lindsay Phillips shoes on her website: www.lindsay-phillips.com

    Big thank you to Lindsay for allowing me to experience these super cute and super comfy shoes!

    Bella

    ps: The Lindsay Phillips Liz Canvas Ballet Flat retails for $64 and the interchangeable embellished ornaments range from $9-$15.
