Hello chicas! There’s a growing
demand for these cute and simple bracelets; I’m sure you’ve seen them around
somewhere at stores and boutiques. Pura Vida Bracelets are great for everyday
and fresa-usable. PLUS, there is a great story behind these bracelets. When I
visited Costa Rica, everyone greeted each other by saying. “Pura
Vida”. I speak Spanish so, this phrase was odd because normally it is said, “Vida
Pura”, which means pure life, but not in Costa Rica. Pura Vida in Costa Rica
means more. It means “enjoying life slowly, celebrating good fortune and not
taking anything for granted” (Pura Vida- Our Story). I think this personality is found in most fresas, easy style with a Hispanic twist to it.
This bracelet business started
when two tourists found Jorge, the maker of the bracelets, selling them and
asked him to make 400 to take bring to the United States. Some of the bracelets
were placed in a boutique and were sold quickly and demand grew. The two
tourists called Jorge and began a business with him. The purpose behind the
bracelets is to give artisans in Costa Rica jobs and they also started a
mission to preserve the beaches and oceans worldwide. All in all, Pura Vida
Bracelets has a really neat story behind it and the bracelets are really cute to
wear! Get them. Stack them on your wrist!

They also have a Facebook and a
Twitter to follow, whatever floats your boat!
