Are you ready to receive a surprise print and color in the mail? Then this is for you! You may receive the item in the picture or something totally different but that’s what keeps it fun. The style, color and print may be different from the pictures but you’ll receive a jacket dress. Our artisans have taken time to carefully cut different prints, then put them together to make a unique one of a kind patch work masterpiece! The best part is that this collection is at a lower price than our other collections and 50% of the profit will go to charity (We’ll post about this in July). Don’t miss this! It’s a steal for the value you’re getting and it’s our way of saying thank you while you also get the opportunity to give back to the less privileged.
You can return if it doesn’t work out. No two items are the same, so exchanges are tricky and discouraged, but if we find one close enough, we’ll be happy to exchange.
