Altar Ego Apparel & promo Code

Hi there!

I recently became a partnered brand ambassador with Altar Ego Apparel. They are a new fitness line (established in 2014) based just north of Boston that makes all of their leggings right in our local area. The first collection featured all French Impressionist art prints painted in Paris in the late 1800s and early 1900s. They just launched a new collection focusing on henna art, modern ink tattoos and ancient body painting. They believe like art, women are more than what you see at first glance. Besides loving that everything is made in Boston, I love that they are an all feminine-run company!

I just got these beautiful Hamsa leggings with the hand of Fatima design on them. They matched my Under Armour top and Lululemon yoga mat so nicely! In them I was inspired in yoga class. I practice yoga regularly and just love having something fun to wear for class! They are really great quality stretchy and smooth which I love in yoga pants.

If you buy any Altar Ego Apparel clothing be sure to use my discount code "Carolina15" for 15% off of your purchase!
