25.01.2022 New pretties arriving from RICEPAPER This gorgeous shift style dress is one of my favourite pieces in their whole collection- I think I say that a lot but I truely do love so many pieces we have online at the moment! The colour is a beautiful soft mauve (Also available in silver) and it’s made from Australian sourced Cotton Cupro. These are the timeless styles that you cherish in your wardrobe forever. X
23.01.2022 Our favourite part about these leggings is the fold-over waistband! It gives you three layers of fabric to support your mid area and has no seams that will dig in and make you feel uncomfortable - Nat, Pinky & Kamal Director Director Comfort is honestly my number one life goal especially as a work from home woman in 2020 and there is honestly nothing worse than waistbands that are too tight...am I right? Plus, each piece is hand dyed making it completely unique, just like you! ...Cuuuute!

23.01.2022 It’s been a hot minute since I posted a pic of me modelling our pieces, years in fact. I hate been in front of the camera, it makes me SO anxious. So much so that I went and studied photography so I could take the photos instead and I have for the last 4 years but our gorgeous model here in Tassie has a baby on the way and I just had to share some love for the very comfy, very considered Keeper Denim. So here I am, here’s my butt and here is the Elwood skinny, the first everyday style from WA based label Keeper Denim. Made in Melbourne from 92% Organic Cotton, 6% Recycled Polyester, 2% Elastane. Can confirm, they fit like a dream and they already feel like your old favourites

16.01.2022 Our very first edition from across the pond in New Zealand is @recreateclothing and we are so excited! Not only because their latest collection sports simplicity and our favourite burnt orange colour paired perfectly with minimalists must-haves in black and white but because this is a label where there is more than meets the eye. ReCreate was founded on giving struggling and impoverished communities a leg up, giving them skills to create better opportunities for themselves a...nd their families. Their first sewing student was Sompoa, she and her family of four were previously homeless, living under a table in the local marketplace. Today, Sompoa is the team leader and trains new students in all that she has learnt. Sompoa's story is so special and immediately makes you feel overwhelming admiration for the passion and drive of a smaller label to make such a big difference. From woe to go this is a label that has considered it all. Everything is made from 100% Organic cotton and their range includes two denim options sustainably milled using 100% recycled water. If there was ever a sustainable label to throw your support behind, this is it.

08.01.2022 INTRODUCING KEEPER DENIM I’ve been wanting to add a denim label to WDL since I first started the business 5 years ago and truth be told, I actually did add one about a year in but found their transparency only went so far and the more questions I asked the more I felt like it wasn’t all I’d hoped it would be. Finally, I found a label I’m proud to support on WDL, welcome W.A based label, Keeper Denim. ... Keeper Denim has set out to do it differently with their denim made from 92% certified organic cotton, using 88% less water than conventional denim containing zero chemicals and minimizes the impact on both the environment and the people involved in making them and wearing them and 6% recycled polyester from consumer waste water bottles and 2% elastin. They've created a label that ticks all the boxes by being better for the earth, better for the makers, and better for you! With the Elwood skinny the first in their line up and just quietly, another lighter wash on the way, Keeper is one to watch and throw your support behind because this is the kind of denim brand we want to keep around.
07.01.2022 Last but certainly not least in our made-in-Melbourne line up is @pinkyandkamal. We're a little obsessed with this one! In a year where fashion has become the most comfortable thing you can spend your days in, we think this might be a favourite of yours too. They've nailed the cool-girl vibes while maintaining optimum levels of comfort-Goals! Their entire collection of yoga wear is made from organic cotton. This is the yoga wear what lends itself to all of your day to day activities and if they haven't won you over already they're also part of the One Tree Planted initiative, so with every sale made one tree is planted in Australian fire torn areas, showing they're a label that puts their money where their heart is.
07.01.2022 Linen lovers we got chu! Our gal Maggie from @indecisivethelabel has made our favourite sustainable fabric even more sustainable. Instead of adding to the already overloaded demand of supply chains, Maggie has created her collection from deadstock linen. Why isn’t this been done more? One of the many reasons we love love LOVE Indecisive...also because she has a super cute dog named Henry. X

06.01.2022 What even is Tencel? Tencel is made from the wood celluloses of eucalyptus trees and not those beautiful old growth eucalyptus either. They're made from farmed eucalyptus with no genetic manipulation, irrigation or pesticides. The solvents mixed with the wood celluloses to create Tencel are non toxic and can be recycled with a recovery rate of 99.5% making it incredibly sustainable to produce.... And my personal favourite thing about Tencel other than how incredible it feels on the skin is that it's wrinkle resistant! Yes ladies, don't worry about dusting off the iron for these pretties. Goals!
05.01.2022 The thing about a global pandemic is we’re all in it together so let’s be there for one another and share in the shit times. Today is R U OKAY day and I can’t think of a time when it’s been more important to ask a family member, friend, neighbour or anyone really, ‘are you okay?’ Its been a effing year and so many people aren’t okay, even the strongest people you know have probably struggled. With so many people loosing their jobs, loved ones, and being forced to isolate fo...r what seems like forever, it’s okay not to be okay. Almost ten years ago I lost a friend to suicide and we just didn’t know he was struggling. He was the life of the party, always happy, always smiling and you never stop questioning what you could have done differently. R U Ok day is a great reminder to check in on the ones we care about while you still have the chance. I’ve also struggled with my mental health throughout my life and it is SO HARD to talk about. You don’t want to ruin someone’s day, burden them with your problems or sound like an idiot. Letting people in is hard and mostly, I found I pushed people away. When I needed friends most, I isolated myself and acted like everything was fine. I kept that tough exterior so no one could see the struggle I was going through. It’s not always easy to start those conversations and no one expects you to have all the answers and solve all of their problems, just listen and support. If you don’t know how to go about starting a conversation head to the link in @ruokday bio and have a look at their website for some really helpful information on how you can prepare yourself for the chat. Seriously, it takes five minutes to read through and there’s even an interactive video. It could change someone’s life or save it. X
05.01.2022 The Raku knit shirt by @ricepaperthelabel Avid tee wearer over here and nothing gives me the warm and fuzzies like a soft thick knitted tee!

All made in very limited runs in Melbourne, get in quick so you don’t miss out!
