Starting June 11th, style your Sseko in ten different ways! Only have 1 item? Great! This challenge was originally designed solely (pun intended) around our Ribbon Sandals which can be styled endless ways. This year, in addition to our flagship Ribbon Sandals, we’ve expanded the challenge to include everything from our super versatile apparel to our chic jewelry to our delicious leather bags. Have lots of Sseko? This is your chance to show it off!

HOW TO ENGAGE: All you’ve got to do is wear Sseko (whether that is one item or ten!) from June 11th-20 use #10ways10days to show off your versatile Sseko style! We’ll be highlighting our favorite looks on our social media AND selecting three lucky winners to get $200 Sseko gift cards at the end of the challenge.

I'm a Sseko Fellow!

I’m officially signed up to be a Sseko Fellow!! 

I am so proud to be a part of this group of women supporting women in need. Sseko Designs is an ethical fashion brand that hires high potential women in Uganda to make sandals to enable them to earn money through dignified employment that will go directly towards their college educations and ensure they will continue pursuing their dreams. To date, we've enabled 87 women to continue on to university. We currently employ 50 women in Uganda from all walks of life. We believe that every woman has a dream. When she is given the opportunity to pursue those dreams, we are collectively walking towards a brighter and more just and beautiful world.

In addition to our work in Uganda, we design and source ethically made products from East Africa. We believe that good business can be an incredibly powerful force for positive social change. Sseko products are all made in Africa and create jobs, empower artisans and help end the cycle of poverty by building healthy communities and economies.

I hosted an online trunk show last Friday upon my return from Vegas to rave reviews! I am looking for a few more orders so you all can receive your orders and see why I'm so excited! I'm joining forces with my two great friends, Katie Johnson and Katie Hathaway, lovingly known as Gabby and The Katie's! LOL This relatively new company, with the headquarters in Portland, Oregon, is one helps our global community. At this stage in my life, I love the idea of helping the planet, being a better person and giving back.

My trunk show ends tonight. If you find something in the catalog you enjoy, please let me know or place your order online.
