Rosa Loves

After reading my friend, Oliver Happy’s blog, ‘Olly at Large’ recently, it inspired me to write this piece. Often we wonder what on earth to buy for someone for Christmas, and you buy for the sake of buying… and generally you buy some crap that they probably neither want nor appreciate. In some places… there is no Christmas, no giving, Santa does not visit some children, and after being directed by Oliver to a particular website, I think I’ve found something worthwhile…

ROSA LOVES is a bunch of everyday normal folk who give a damn. They realise that we are capable of performing tangible acts of service that will meet individual and immediate needs in order to affect wide scale encouragement. They hope to encourage individual people to get involved in the community around them on a somewhat tangible scale. They will accomplish this by providing financial support to those in need by infiltrating the t-shirt industry with a new perspective of how clothing can serve a purpose other than outfitting. Everyone has a story. Everyone has a need. By using art and creativity, they hope to foster hope and encouragement through the aid of apparel. Each story will be told through stimulating graphics and actual text that will appear on the inverse of the shirt directly in line with the heart, where the Rosa Loves movement stems from.

Not a bad bod... hey ladies?

ROSA LOVES is less about charity and more about awareness, awareness that we are all apart of something greater and are therefore joined by common threads.

The website is very informative, so I do encourage you to pop online and have a look. The Tshirts are uber cool and serve a damn good purpose.

So I know what I want for Christmas… one or two, or maybe more of these T-Shirts.

FYI – size Small!

I'm telling you, it's the new black!

So this Christmas when you’re aimlessly wondering through MYER or DJ’s or wherever else… it’s not how much you spend, or about just buying a gift… Christmas is about giving, not just to your family and friends but to those around us – and this, I feel gives so much more than that bottle of Gucci Rush you’re thinking about buying, or that latest CD of that artist you saw on Video Hits (who mind you is probably rolling in cash) – unless it’s a CD by Krista Polvere or other Australian or unsigned talent… don’t buy it – but a Tshirt from ROSA LOVES!

Note to my immediate family and friends – THIS IS A PRETTY BIG HINT!!! Again SIZE S.
