MoringaConnect



Over the past year, a friend of mine has been working on a social venture that helps farmers on the continent growing food on about a football field worth of land generate the income they need to improve the quality of their lives. These farmers make up 3/4 of the worlds poorest people and they've designed technologies and a process that can change that, starting with processing seeds from a miraculous tree called moringa. His team is in the IDEAS Competition and with your votes they could win $1500 toward their work this summer. Please check out their project, MoringaConnect, and vote for us:

Chestnut Hill in the Blue Dress

Amazing Photos by Ramzi Yamusah! :) I'm completely in love with them









Fun in the "sun". It was cold, windy... and cold and I was wearing a thin blue dress (not the best combo). We made the most of it though. Special thanks to helper 1 and helper 2 (Marietta and Armstrong), they really held their through it. Thank you, thank you and thank you again.


Another collaboration with Ramzi and I must say he completely blew me away with the photos. I love all the pictures he sent, it was hard picking my favorite ones especially since all of them were AH-mazing! Looking forward to more collaborations for le blog! Check out his work at http://www.mr233gq.com/

About the look, it's a simple dress for s simple night out with the girls. I found those shoes at Steve Madden and for all of you obsessed with the CL Pigalle pump this is a REALLY good look alike. It's also pretty comfortable :)


The weekend is over but we have next weekend to look forward to...right? lol OH and don't forget to like my facebook page for blog updates just click here


HAPPY MONDAY



Your Truly,


Marcie
