The Edge Tie-Dye Kangaroo Hoodie Shirt Review & Giveaway

Part of me thinks I should have been born in the 60s. I would have definitely been a hippie traveling around in my VW van, flowers in my hair and enjoying every minute of it. Even though I was born in the 80s, there are many things still around and popular today, including Tie-Dye. I love tie-dye shirts and so do my kids. We actually started an art project one day, trying to make our own tie-dye shirts, but ended up with a huge mess and had no idea what we were doing. I think I will leave it up to the professionals, which is why I was so excited to find The Edge Tie Dye Handcrafted Boutique.

About The Edge
We are a completely handcrafted tie dye boutique established in 1990 and we do all of the dying by hand, one piece at a time.  No vats or bulk dying.  Sometimes the cats help.  Our goal is to create affordable and unique wearable art using the highest quality, brand name, cotton & rayon clothing and to make your purchase of massive quantities a pleasant experience.

We use fiber reactive dyes that we custom mix (with magic) to create our unique color patterns.  All of our items are completely colorfast and safe.  We promise no one will turn blue.  All cotton clothing is machine washable with your other darks, in warm or cold water and you can tumble dry. No running, shrinking or fading... guaranteed!

My Thoughts
I was so excited to look through The Edge Tie Dye's awesome selection of tie-dye items and have to admit it was very hard to decide which one I liked the best, especially since there were options for both adults and children. My son, Liam, really wanted one for his own, so the owner was nice enough to send an item for both of us! I received the Kangaroo Hoodie Shirt and he got the long-sleeved t-shirt for kids.

This is Liam wearing his tie dye shirt! We were actually at the hospital for one of his chemo treatments and I chose this shirt because it is so soft and comfortable. Plus, he loves the colors and design! It has been perfect for the cooler winter months we've experienced here in Georgia.

I, on the other hand, am always cold in the winter and am pretty much always wearing a sweatshirt, so I was very excited when I spotted the Kangaroo Hoodie, which is a soft cotton sweatshirt with a hood. It has quickly become my favorite shirt and I wear it weekly. It follows me around the house so I can put it on when I get cold and take if off when I get hot chasing after the boys. It's the most comfortable shirt I own and I love it!

There were many colors from which to choose and also many different designs. I love the swirls, but you can choose from a rainbow, heart, flame or many other designs, too. I really cannot say enough about my shirt and the quality of it. Since I've worn it so often, it has been washed several times and guess what? Just like the guarantee says, the colors have not faded one bit. It's as beautiful and colorful as it was when I received it.

Figleaves.com Offers The Perfect Clothing For Upcoming Summer Vacationing

Now that I'm back to my pre-pregnancy size, I've been looking to revamp my entire wardrobe. It's not as easy as I thought it would be since I am so picky about what I want. Although I want stylish clothing, I also want to be comfortable. Plus, I really don't want to spend an arm and a leg, of course! Like most of you ladies, I do a great deal of my purchasing online. It's so much easier, saves me time and I can often find better deals than in-store!

Right now my online search has gone to clothing for my upcoming beach vacation. I need a variety of clothes, from tees to lingerie, which is what figleaves offers. I found so many awesome items that I then had to narrow down my search to a few of my very favorite items that are beach essentials. I knew I wanted a t-shirt and, when I saw the Perfect V Neck Tee, I knew that was the one for me. It's form-fitting and comfortable, so I can look great and feel great, too.

Next my search for a swimsuit began. My swimsuits are embarrassingly old, so I knew it was time to upgrade to something beautiful and fashionable. With my all-new body, I want a bikini! The figleaves Tobago swimsuit is so pretty that I couldn't resist. I love triangle top swimsuits with a halter and they are in style write now. Plus, the design has navy tropical flowers. It's pretty and beach-themed!

Lastly, I have been looking for a new chemise. Luckily, figleaves nightwear has some beautiful chemises, sleep shorts and camisoles from which to choose. I love looking at sleepwear and lingerie, so this was definitely the hardest choice because I wanted everything I found. Finally, I decided on the Drape Chemise. It's so beautiful and has adjustable straps, which I always need.

Now that I have purchased all my new clothing, I'm almost ready to go to the beach! Now comes the less exciting part of packing everything up. I just can't wait to get to the beach and show off my new clothes. What will you purchase for the upcoming summer holidays? Don't wait until the last minute because there are some great deals going on right now!
