Happy Monday, ya'll! It's feelin' like sum sum summah time and I'm excited to drop some news! As a sweet treat to my valued readers, I decided to create a deal just for you (seriously, I'm only sharing the code here!). New inventory launches this week, and if you use the code XMASINJULY you'll receive FREE shipping on any purchase of $20 or more. This is a great time to stock up!
Can you believe I'm already working on Holiday designs!? I hardly can. I've had "Mele Kalikimaka" playing on repeat to balance the warmth of summer with the task at hand (which of course inspired a tropical holiday line this time around)! I'll have those available come late August, so all my wholesalers, keep a look out! I'll be messaging you soon! :D
But enough about the holidays...
