You know how it goes, just when something is ending, in comes something wonderful. Perhaps you planned a beach vacation and every single day it rained except for the day you were scheduled to leave. Or, maybe you spent a rather lengthy year in a roommate relationship that was rather toxic, only to turn friends as the lease ended. For me, it was winter.
Midwest winters (and specifically Wisconsin in my case) are anything but brief. Limited sunshine, frigid temperatures, and endless snowfall makes the months drag on. Saying that by March I am REALLY ready for spring, would be an understatement. This year was no exception to the rule, in fact I found myself counting down the days left of winter. That was, until for the first time ever I found a reason that will actually make me miss winter. Cue alpaca clothing straight from Peru, more specifically- “Campo Alpaca“.
A special thank you to Campo Alpaca for sponsoring this post. As always, please know I only recommend products and brands that I 100% love, trust, and use myself.
Why I Fell in Love with Alpaca Clothing
After finding Campo Alpaca I instantly fell in love with their alpaca clothing products for a multitude reasons. (After viewing the video below, I bet you will too!)
Authenticity
Campo Alpaca clothing (specifically sweaters, hats, and scarves) are the REAL deal. Created in Peru, the company employees Peruvian craftsman, knitters, and weavers to make their gorgeous garments.
Quality
Prior to learning about Campo Alpaca I had never owned an alpaca garment. With that said, despite the reviews, it was difficult for me to really understand the hype. That all changed when I felt it for myself. Created from alpaca wool, the material is incredibly soft, lightweight, breathable, and designed to keep you so very warm. Furthermore, as a busy mom always on the go, comfort for me is key and Campo Alpaca does not disappoint.
Giving Back
Founded by humanitarian, Katie Lorenz, the goal of Campo Alpaca is more than simply designing and selling garments. The brand also shares equal focus on bettering the lives of the workers in Peru; providing fair wages and helping them better the communities in which they live.
The style
It goes without saying that style is important. No matter how warm a clothing item keeps you, or just how comfortable it may be, chances are you won’t get full use out of it if you don’t want to be seen in public with it on. Campo Alpaca certainly keeps this in mind with their gorgeous weaving patterns and designs. I honestly can’t tell you just how many compliments I have received in the short amount of time I have owned Campo Alpaca items.
On Wisconsin
Founder Katie Lorenz, myself, and millions of others have one thing in common… we are proud alumni of the University of Wisconsin. As a result, if I can represent my alma mater in style, you better believe I will. So, when I noticed that Campo Alpaca had a Wisconsin line, my excitement multiplied. View the Wisconsin line here. (Talk about the PERFECT gift idea!)
