Valentine’s Day is approaching and I am so over giving my teen daughters crappy heart shaped chocolates, or yet another pair of “red socks”  This year I want to shake it up, give them something they will love, and an item that “SHARES the LOVE” with a gift that gives back.

Handmade fashions from Pura Vida Bracelets offer more than just unique style ­– the bracelets represent a simple way of life that encourages wearers to enjoy the little things in life. Every Pura Vida bracelet is handcrafted by artisans in Costa Rica and supports the creative community there. In an effort to share the pura vida philosophy with others, Pura Vida Bracelets has partnered with more than 190 charities worldwide to support important causes. By purchasing a unique bracelet from the charity collection, you can support a cause near and dear to your heart.
