They visited over 15 countries and decided to start collecting fabrics from where they travelled to. When they returned, they created Serengetee, a company to connect people to the globe through fabric while giving back to the communities that inspire their products. Since their launch in 2012, Serengetee has become one of the fastest growing clothing brands in the world. Their motto is \u201cWear the World. Change the World.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.luc.edu\/chicagostyle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_9233.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-467\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.luc.edu\/chicagostyle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_9233.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9233\" width=\"5184\" height=\"3456\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>CS<\/strong>: What do like about being their brand ambassador? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>LH<\/strong>: I love being a brand ambassador! Their clothes are so comfortable and there are so many different fabrics and patterns so everyone can express their individual style.

I live for Nordstrom Rack and finding one of a kind deals. I think expression through fashion has become a staple in our generation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CS<\/strong>: Do you have any fashion advice for others in finding their own style?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>LH<\/strong>: Be adventurous! Make sure to adventure out on weekends and find cute boutiques or go to resale shops! When shopping, make sure that you can picture the shirt, pants, dress, etc. as four different unique outfits, so that you can change your style often with that one piece of clothing!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.luc.edu\/chicagostyle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_9275.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-469\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.luc.edu\/chicagostyle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_9275.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9275\" width=\"5184\" height=\"3456\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Become a brand ambassador by visiting Serengetee&#8217;s website: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serengetee.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/www.serengetee.com\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And make sure you tell us your thoughts on Serengetee on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mychicagostyle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mychicagostyle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Instagram<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWear the World.
