Trendhim Giveaway & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #236
Happy Tuesday, everyone! I am keeping today’s post super short and sweet because we have been unexpectedly taken out of town and I just can’t seem to get my head around writing. So for today, I just wanted to share a quick reminder about a giveaway I have going on.
When Trendhim reached out to me for a collaboration, I asked Jeff if he was interested. Needing a new backpack, he jumped right on board and chose the Lemont Green Foldable Backpack. We women are always talking about feeling and looking our best in our clothing and making a statement with our personal style choices, but I think we often forget that men also want to share their stories through their personal style choices as well.
Check out my stylish husband modeling his cool new backpack!
Trendhim wants to help every man tell his story. And they do this with their extensive collection of quality men’s accessories which are offered at very affordable prices suitable to most budgets. They currently carry 13 different brands in men’s accessories and add several new collections each year so they are always keeping abreast of the current trends for men.
Trendhim was founded in 2007 by two high school students in Denmark, Sebastian and Mikkel, who were young, energetic, and naive enough to run with their idea. They began with two ideas for a start up company, a bread delivery company or an online shop for men’s accessories. Deciding that waking up at 4:00 a.m. to bake the bread was not really for them, Trendhim was born. It really is a fascinating story about two young men refusing to fail regardless of all the risk warnings offered by friends and family.
Jeff is super happy with this high quality stylish backpack. He promptly tossed his old beat up camouflage backpack that I think belonged to one of our children at some point. We parents, and especially dads, need some spoiling, too. And what better way to get spoiled then with a new accessory that was created with men and their style needs in mind. They have a wonderful collection of men’s bags as well other accessories and jewelry. Stay tuned for my upcoming post about our new Belt Hole Puncher as well. I am very excited to get punching new holes in all of my belts that have become too large as my waist has shrunk this past year.
Trendhim is offering a $35 gift voucher to one of my readers. I am using a Rafflecopter giveaway below. Just follow the prompts to enter. This giveaway is limited to the continental United States. So I do apologize to all of my international and overseas friends. The giveaway will be open until August 23, 2021. I will announce the winner at that time.

Jennifer of Jennifer Lambert, A Sacred Balance shared her post, Confidence, which discusses her journey through working, not working, parenthood, homeschooling, and that wonderful midlife shift that occurs when we stop caring so much about the unimportant things and start focusing on our own truths. It is a moving and inspiring post and despite not homeschooling my kids, I can relate to everything that Jennifer shared in this post.
Keeping it on the edge,

It’s great to see your husband getting in on the action and that backpack lookslike it will be very useful for him. My husband uses an old one from college – he graduated from college in 1988 – but it is in surprisingly great shape!Thanks for the link up friend!

Thanks, Kellyann! Jeff does enjoy getting in on the blogging action and reaping the freebie benefits sometimes! He is getting much use out of this cool backpack. But I absolutely love the fact that your husband is using his college backpack from the 80s! That is so fabulous. The other day I had to break out my favorite umbrella which lives in the trunk of my car and I had a good chuckle because I bought this cool Blackwatch plaid umbrella with a wooden cane style handle in 1992 and it is the only umbrella that hasn’t broken on me yet! I guess things were just made better back then!

Thanks for the feature! Love backpacks and your hubs did a nice job styling it! With hiking and travel, I am always on the lookout for nice ones. It’s funny because I had forgotten about a cool REI one I have which is great for traveling and haven’t used in a few years. It kind of expands so can fit a lot.

Thank you, Mireille! This is a really great backpack. It is super lightweight and you can fold it up really small when empty to pack if you need an extra bag to take traveling. I wore this backpack for a bit while we were walking at Niagara Falls and it is really comfortable, too!

Sheila (of Ephemera)
I find it surprising that more companies aren’t catering to men with simple lines instead of “sporty” accessories. My husband dislikes the sport stuff intensely, but I can see him using a pack like that. Love your hub’s posing! Well done, Jeff!
Thanks so much for the link-party, Shelbee – I’m joining you with my hand-done Fluevog customization!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks so much, Sheila! I agree with you…there really isn’t enough variety for men. Jeff has a very simple style and doesn’t accessorize much. He prefers simple, classic, and understated when he does need accessories. He found quite a few things from Trendhim that he liked which was nice because usually he struggles if I ask him to join me on a collaboration with a men’s brand. But clearly he doesn’t struggle with being the model! Haha. He’s such a ham!

This backpack style is really good. If you can’t find a better backpack, I think you can buy it directly. It is very suitable for men and is versatile.

Thanks so much! It really is a great backpack and totally gender neutral if needed!
