welcome at tommy's!

on april 26th i had the chance to attend a special event at the tommy hilfiger store in vienna. the event was hosted in collaboration with wienerin (my all time favorite fashion magazine) and the aim was to present the new promise collection. 

this collection was produced in africa for africa. 100 % of the proceeds are dedicated to ruhiira, a village in uganda where approximately 50 000 people live.

i knew from the start that i had to buy something. not only because the money i spend will be used for a good cause but also because i really like the collection: the designs, the colors and especially the patterns!

the event was organised neatly and we were warmly welcomed. there was a dj and the guests were served delicious drinks, sparkling wine and exotic juices, and after some time also mouth-watering fingerfood, like peanut soup, mini-schnitzel in a coat of coconut rasps and vegetables with polenta (my choice as a vegetarian).

that's the scarf i lost my heart to and bought. it's great how the color conveys a maritime feeling and the pattern an african touch. 2 in 1 i would say. this scarf can pimp any simple outfit and is therefore the perfect accessory for breezy summer days.

of course, tommy also sold regular articles at the event.

fitting room action.

to be honest, i have the sweetest tooth ever. suprise me by baking a cake and i might love you ever after.

at the end i would like to say thank you tommy hilfiger and wienerin for making this evening so unforgettable. i wore the scarf for the first time today and i don't want to take it off anymore! besides, this collection has raised my awareness even more. if i could i would only buy clothes, cosmetics, etc. which were produced under fair and humane conditions. what's more: now i want to travel to the "real" africa sooner than later - morocco doesn't count. ;)
