My NOVICA Tunic

<div style="text-align: center;"> I've been wanting a cute tunic for awhile now, so when <a href="http://www.novica.com/"><span style="color: #ea9999;">NOVICA</span></a> contacted me a few months ago offering to send me a gift from their lovely site, I knew exactly what to choose. They have a variety of gorgeous, handmade, hand blocked tunics. I ended up going with<span style="color: #ea9999;"> this</span> gorgeous hot pink one with turquoise detailing, and I can't wait to wear it to the beach!

I encourage you to check it out and support fair trade! My one word of caution is that shipping on some of these items will cost you a fair amount (although this is UPS brokerage fees.. not Novica's fault) , but prices on the objects themselves are very reasonable and, in my opinion, 100% worth it!<br />Right now they've got some great gift ideas for mother's day!:<br /><div><div style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ea9999;"><span style="font-size: 12.7273px;"><a href="http://unique-gifts.novica.com/womens/gifts-for-mom/" target="_blank">Unique Gifts for Mom</a></span></span><br /><span style="color: #ea9999;"><span style="font-size: 12.7273px;"><a href="http://unique-gifts.novica.com/womens/gifts-for-mom/jewelry/" target="_blank">Jewelry Gifts for Mom</a> </span><br style="font-size: 12.7273px;" /><span style="font-size: 12.7273px;"><a href="http://unique-gifts.novica.com/womens/gifts-for-mom/jewelry/necklaces/" target="_blank">Necklace Gifts for Mom</a></span></span></div><div style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ea9999;"><span style="font-size: 12.7273px;"><a href="http://unique-gifts.novica.com/womens/gifts-for-mom/sculpture/" target="_blank">Sculpture Gifts for Mom</a>  </span></span><span style="font-size: 9pt;"><span style="color: #ea9999;">  </span> </span></div></div><br />Thank you so much <a href="http://www.novica.com/">NOVICA</a> for my beautiful tunic.<br /><a href="http://s1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/?action=view&current=Tiffany-27.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh609/tiffanyleighinteriordesign/Tiffany-27.jpg" /></a></div>
