Power to the Period! #PeriodProjects with Kotex + My Friend Court

9/15/2016

Comments

 

Gals, today I am so happy to partner up with
Kotex to talk to you about P E R I O D S !!! Well kinda.

​Did you know that nearly 3.5 million homeless women in America each year have limited- to no access to period products?! Ladies, what would you do? Could you imagine?!

This is exactly why I have teamed up with Holly Sanchez, DoSomething.org, the U by Kotex Power to the Period and many other women like yourself to make a difference. We're encouraging people to buy and donate an extra pack of period product to a homeless shelter near you.  
Power-To-The-Period-My-Friend-Court
The U by Kotex Power to the Period drive is proof that together we can change the way we think about, talk about and support the period needs of homeless people in our communities.

Throw kindness (or in this case, tampons) around like confetti and get out there and donate the supplies women + girls so desperately need! 

With lots of love,

Psst! : Shout out to my new intern who helped me take these pics! I CAN NOT wait to introduce her to y'all later this week! (She has been the PERFECT fit to the MFC squad, so expect great things to come! #growth) Now go donate some tampons! :*

Tokyo : The 5th Co Watch

The-5th-Co-Watches-My-Friend-Court
Hi-yuh folks!

Can you believe that it is SEPTEMBER?! Like what, the what?! I feel like this year has blown by faster than ever! And even though we can't slow down time, I thought I would share with you a way you can keep up with the time (no new methods) just this cool new watch! hehe

My mates from Australia, The 5th Co sent over this o-so-chic and sleek leather watch and as soon as I opened the package I felt more modern, put together and like I would definitively be on time when wearing this watch! hehe

For real though, I am not a huge fan of spending hundreds of dollas on a fancy watch, but my $10 plastic watch from Target needed a serious upgrade! And (we all know) blush-colored anything is all the rage right now, so how could I pass up being one of the first to have the new 5TH Tokyo watch!

They are only available to people who sign up before the 5th of September so go sign up now here :
www.the5th.co/tokyo and get a preview of the watches + reserve one before they are gone!
