LAMotif01 Etsy Shop - Love. Peace. Vegan. and Giveaway!

Etsy is a mecca for artists, crafters, and designers.  It is a marketplace of unique items from artwork to clothes to vintage items.  It's also a great place to scour vegan items of all sorts: chocolates, clothes, handbags, make-up, etc.  They are basically little boutiques on the web.

One of my favorite Etsy shops is LAMotif01: Love. Peace. Vegan.  I may sound a little biased because it is my friend's shop, but it is so much more than that.  The reason it is one of my favorites is because it is a shop that was put together out of love.  The reason that I say this is because all net proceeds are donated to several different charities, she doesn't take a dime for it.  Some of the charities are: Ocean Conservancy, Save the Children, Nature Conservancy, Peta, and The Humane Society.

I admire Linh very much.  She is super talented.  She is a photographer, graphic designer, interior designer, web designer, and the list goes on.  This girl has quite the resume, but let me tell you...she is one of the most genuine people I know.  All of that are just labels.  She is not only vegan, but one of the most eco-conscious people I know.  Check out her Sh*t Eco-Girls Say videos...super adorable.

Okay, back to her Etsy shop.  The reason she started this shop, in her own words, "This clothing line was created to raise awareness for those that cannot be heard, the health of humans, and our Mother Earth."  She has a variety of different items (clothes, bags, and bracelets) for guys and gals with her signature "VEGAN" and "VEG" slogans, and the occasional "PEACE" and "LOVE".   She explained, "People ask me why I do not design the words, "LOVE" and "PEACE" more. I tell them that there are thousands of designs already out there, but not enough for "VEG" and "VEGAN". Therefore, I will keep going until it is even or more! ♥"  Isn't she super adorable?

The clothes that she sales are selectively chosen for their comfort, as she loves comfortable clothes, and well...so do we. I actually own two LAMotif01's "VEGAN" clothing items.  I have a tank top that I also use as a cover-up when I go to the beach, and I also have a dress.  I love them both.  They're super comfortable, soft, light, and airy.

Now here is the fun part.  I have three gray "Love Peace Vegan" Bracelets to giveaway as set. They are a really fun way to show your love for our animal friends. But WAIT...there's MORE (haha...infomercials crack me up)...the winner will also get three coupons for "Free" Gardein products and four coupons for "Free" Tofutti products (Courtesy of Gardein and Tofutti).  Isn't being a vegan grand!?!
