Excuse my brief appearance today, but I’m working on a fun post for tomorrow. In honor of my upcoming 31st birthday, I’m sharing 31 things about me that you may not know. This is taking a lot of thought. If only I were turning just 25 I’d have less to come up with.

Just so you see where I’m going with this, here’s one…

#23 

I collected trolls when I was little. I’m so glad my mom saved them bc now my children play with them.

Please come back here tomorrow and celebrate with me!

I love today’s post so much that I wish I could use big ol’ glittery neon letters and words to make it jump out at you. Because what a dear company this is that you all should know…

31 Bits began after a girl, Kallie Doval, had a dream about changing the world. Specifically, by bringing joy and liberation to women living on the other side of the world.

By creating 31 Bits, Kallie and her team give Ugandan women a new way of life. What started with only 6 Ugandan artisans that has now grown to 99, 31 Bits is not only changing lives but is also delivering a beautiful product that I, and I bet you, love.

The whole collection is available online. I have so many favorites. To support 31 Bits you can make a purchase, share the site, host a trunk show, or volunteer as an intern!

And aren’t the pictures fun? I love this little sneak peek photo they shared before their spring collection launched in February. Such a good marketing idea to shield the pieces with the rackets as a teaser!

Lastly, if you’re so inclined, I urge you to watch this video. It’s a very well made, pretty, and awesome video to witness!

So happy for Marysia Swim landing the cover of Conde Nast Traveler this month. Rock on.

That Cay Scallop Bikini is just so rad. I felt inspired…

I’m really loving those TKEES flip flops. They come in a million different colors. And a sequined sun hat? Freaking awesome. But what I’m really flipping out over are these Ombre Hair Chalks. I mean, why has it taken so long to come up with this? Why dye your freaking hair pink when you can just do these for $14?? 
Those colors are gorgeous. I hope you all have a most most amazing weekend!! Somehow, we’ve escaped with no plans. So the plan is to take it easy and maybe get some things done around the house. Hmm, sounds kind of boring.

Let me preface this post by saying what an amazing time these photos below represent. One of the coolest things about living in Charleston is our supremely supportive community of creative, beautiful (on the inside and out), hardworking women. Women who are always eager to toast one another, as we did last Friday in honor of our own, Lindsey Carter.

At the strike of noon on an ordinary Friday in March, sixteen gorgeous gals gathered in Lindsey Carter’s Charleston home’s courtyard to celebrate her new Troubadour Spring 2013 Collection. All had eagerly awaited the day because 1) when a Leapfrog invitation arrives in your mailbox you don’t want to miss the event and 2) it was the first opportunity to see the whole new Troubadour collection in person.

Many of the women were dressed in Troubadour pieces. What really struck me as awesome was that it seemed as if each piece was made for the woman wearing it. So many different women with different personal styles rocking out a collection. It was seriously SO fun to see how everyone styled the pieces. And just so that you can see too, I’m going to photo bomb you all right abouuuuut now.

I know. Holy picture overload, Chassity. And I even narrowed them down, y’all! Troubadour’s spring collection is simply amazing. Quality, comfort, gorgeous. And to think, it all started from this inspiration of Lindsey’s…
And in her words, “The feeling of being on the beach, the waves on your toes, the colors you encounter (shades of blues, sea salt, neutral dune colors), washed out bathing suit neons, and the prints were inspired by the shapes formed in the dunes and on the beach.” 
Mission accomplished, Lindsey. And if I may tell you, I think my pink skirt (as well as that Cabana dress) are the perfect muted neon pink. Ever.
Lindsey’s generously offering you all a 15% discount on the Troubadour Spring Collection. Pieces are still coming in, and all styles will be available after March 15th! You can order now using the code “Spring”.
Big, giant thank you to Leapfrog and Lindsey for hosting the beautiful luncheon. A memorable time was truly had by all. 
Let’s not forget to thank the amazing photographer, Charlotte Elizabeth. Love them so much, Char!
