Eura Cool (to Me) #1

As I read through the various ways to promote my store via the vast plethora of massively intimidating social networking options I decided to just talk about what's cool.  You know...Cool.  Are you cool?  Is being cool really that important, or is it just a tag associated with what we WISH we could be all the time?

Let's start with me.  Do I think I'm cool?  Well, many of us gain our self-perception from the feedback of others.  Do people like us? I think FB has taken this to another level.  Making all of one's mundane moments in life worthy of broadcasting to the world (minute or ridiculously broad depending on the amount of "friends" tallied.).  Still, am I cool?  Nah.  I hope not.  I mean if I thought I was cool, then that would inevitable mean that...I. am. not.

So let's focus on things that are indeed...Cool (to me).

...Handmade mineral eye shadow (Noella Beauty Works) - If you know me (you probably don't), you know that I am afraid of makeup because I don't know how to work it, BUT this looks like ice cream.  Far less intimidating...and very cool.

...Handmade Children's Toy Clown (HopIT) - if clowns looked like this then I wouldn't be so freaked out by them. (Like Chuckie Cheese freaked out.  I know Chuckie wasn't a clown, but why was his mouth so big that a 5yr old feels like she's going to be eaten???)  This clown is very calm and non-threatening...and vegetarian.  Cool.

...Handmade cardigan (Oveja Negra Knits) - hand-knitted items are special because there's normally only ONE of the item you have which is...Cool.  This cardigan is nice because of the zigzags and it looks warm and ready for a night at the movies or on long flight.  So you don't get too...Cool.

All BUTTONED Up With SO Many Places To Go...

The temperature is dropping.  Leaves are falling.  Time to BUTTON Up!  Maybe not the way you think.  Buttons have to be far more than just useful for holding in the warmth or keeping the unmentionables...unmentioned.  They can be fun earring!  We totally wear them all the time, and we are so not a tween. :)

Would you please do US (Eura Lee) a big favor and comment on www.eurahearts.com on which pair you is your FAV.  Or maybe just give a top 3?  Two pair are already listed in our Etsy Store (www.euralee.etsy.com).

Feel free to forward this email to ALL you know.  Post it on your FACEBOOK or TWITTER because it all helps US sell and then donate the proceeds.  Your CLICK is important!
We're always here:
Ciao,

The Stylish Giver...A Fashionable Hero



A new coat would be great, but maybe it's not in the budget.  The best way to make it FEEL new is to dress it up with a SCARF!

Modern prints...Fun colors...Easy to wear.  Who could ask for anything more? 

Did we mention all the proceeds are donated??  Yeah, so you are giving AND getting (It sounds so wrong, but it's not.).  Fashionistas can be charitable too!

Check out the selections online for purchase: www.euralee.storeenvy.com
Peek at the Photo Album to see all the fabulous ways to STYLE scarves.
Other items are at:  www.euralee.etsy.com

Candy Jewelry...Zero Calories



Sometimes candy is good for you.  Zero calories.  No artificial flavoring.  No actual...candy.  More like tagua (a nut, but you don't eat it...you wear it.)  Handmade in Ecuador and what you spend goes straight back to those hands.  Amazing, how great you feel after a sugar rush!

Want to see everything in normal size pictures?  Here's the ALBUM to see everything.

Want to buy?  Here's the Eura Hearts ETSY Store to purchase what you see in the album.  They will be listed three at a time so email us at euraleemail@gmail.com if you have your favorite isn't listed yet.

SCARF this down

Being stylish is actually important...like Global Warming (Gore is all about it). Meanwhile you can buy a scarf AND simultaneously save the world (or a bit less dramatic). You GIVE, you GET. Seems selfish. It's not. I have a thesaurus. ESPECIALLY not in a combo where someone else benefits BEFORE you benefit (Paypal clears before shipment). Crazy? Who says fashion was normal?






100% of proceeds go to families in need of medical treatment in Ecuador. Want one? Two? Well, go check out http://www.eurahearts.bigcartel.com/. Five were listed, but if you see one you want in the slideshow that is not listed please email euraleemail@gmail.com and a Paypal invoice can be emailed to you. Easy peasy.


Give...then GET. Charity couldn't be simpler.
