Hey, I’m Tawny!

I'm a free-spirited, kind of hippie, other-culture-loving, Vespa-obsessed mid-twenties girl with a passion for ending global poverty, abolishing sex trafficking, and keeping mamas with their babies. My husband and I strive to advocate for & pursue a slower, more ethical lifestyle, so I created this blog as a place for others who are passionate about world change to connect with Fair Trade artisan women (and men) around the world & help them support their families.

“We are kindred spirits… and now we are friends.”

You can read my full story on my about page.

Why am I wearing sunglasses? Oh, because the hay immediately made my eyes water so bad I had to run to the bathroom and wash all my makeup off. 😅🤦‍♀️ I promise I grew up in the country & I'm not usually a pansy like that. 🙃

Anywhooo... Most of this look is currently marked down in our Bright Friday Sale. 🥰🍂 Drop me "link" if you wanna check it out!

I thrifted the dress & it's a *little* on the short side for me, so I love wearing a flowy scarf over it for a bit more modesty. 😅

This Elva Scarf is still one of my all tine favorites for this season. 🍂🎄And this Hera collar necklace has me embracing silver again! Both made in India & fighting Child Marriage & Sweat Shops, as well as my bag. 😍

I love these Petal Earrings for a little Fall Leaves vibe too. 🥰 Those beauties are made in Peru & helping women pursue education.

Cranberry Tassel Bracelet is made in Haiti & is helping mamas keep their babies out of orphanages!

How did all these Fair Trade pieces get added to my cart? 🛒🛍️🙈 Oh well, it's empowering women out of poverty & trafficking. 🤷🏽‍♀️☺️

Just ONE. If every person gave just ONE Fair Trad

Just ONE.

If every person gave just ONE Fair Trade gift 🎁 this Christmas, it would change countless lives.

Moms wouldn’t have to relinquish their children 👦🏽 to orphanages.

Survivors of trafficking & abuse would find hope and healing ❤️‍🩹.

Meals would be put on tables 🥘.

Children could go to school 📚.

Would YOU consider simply swapping 1️⃣ of the gifts you’re giving this year for a Fair Trade gift from my shop?

We cast a vote for the world you want to live in with every dollar we spend. There is power in how we use our dollars!

Drop "link" and I'll send you the shopping link, drop "insiders" and I'll get you added to the Insider Chat!

The joy that entered my body when we turned the first string of lights on. ✨🥰🎄

We had it up from early November to February last year and that might happen again honestly. 😍

Loving this Fall Look that I would absolutely also wear for Christmas. 🎄🥰🍂

This rich shade of burgundy has been in this season, and I'm here for it. This Elva Scarf from India has been a go-to for me this fall, especially tied in my signature way so I can actually wear it in this Florida heat. 🙃

It pairs perfectly with the Cranberry Tassel Bracelet from Haiti.

& Then I stacked the Patina & Indian Rose Bracelets because one is just not enough.

The charming necklace & northern lights charm, Minimalist Earrings, Voyager Bucket Bag from India, plus the Thrifted hat & dress just finish this look off perfectly. 🤌

I'm still in my Wizarding World era & it ever so slightly gives me those vibes. ✨

The rain boots because we were fresh off a hurricane when I wore this look. 💧

What do you think of this look?

##ethicalfashion #thriftedootd #fairtradefashion #fashionrevolution #fairtradeootd #tradesofhope #fallfashion #fallstyle #fallinflorida

I told Jouleycie I would wish her a Feliz Cumpleaños on her birthday, so I'm keeping my promise! 🥰🎂

She was in training last month when I was there visiting the @bateygirls workshop, but she's officially part of the team now that she's an adult!

It's exciting to see another girl, a young woman, who was rescued from trafficking be able to step into a safe, fair wage job in an empowering environment. She's going to be able to make her own income, save, dream, and pursue higher education.

Her two year old daughter is not going to have the same experience her mother had to go through. The generational cycle of abuse, trauma, and trafficking will be broken. 💪

It's humbling to be part of this work. ♥️ Through selling bracelets, like the Ocean Agate one I'm wearing, and the Hope Girl ones that have newly landed in my shop, we can not only pay these girls, but support the safe house, and more rescues.

This is the power of shopping Fair Trade pieces. This is the power of a Job. 💙
