Feel Good Cosy Sustainable Unisex Sweatshirts

Hey guys I hope you’re all well :) Surviving the 3rd lockdown! I’ve been working on a few feel-good cosy unisex sweatshirts for you all, to help brighten your mood whilst at home with a bright array of sweatshirts. This 3rd lockdown has been tough with the weather and the thought of not being able to plan ahead or look forward to anything! So I thought why not design a collection of kind to our planet, feel-good, colourful sweatshirts which you can lounge and look good in going for your daily walk. Minimal effort required!

Each sweatshirt has been made from cotton that is certified by the Better Cotton Initiative who help improve cotton farming globally. This makes it better for farmers and the environment. BCI provides farming-practice training, it promotes things like water efficiency and reducing the most harmful chemicals.

The Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) — a global not-for-profit organization — is the largest cotton sustainability programme in the world. They provide training on more sustainable farming practices to more than 2.3 million cotton farmers in 23 countries. In the 2018-19 cotton season, licensed BCI Farmers produced more than 5.6 million metric tonnes of ‘Better Cotton’ – that accounts for around 22% of global cotton production!

Each of our sweatshirts is made from BCI cotton, which means the cotton is responsibly grown. A few of our hand-made sweats are below :)

Below are our popular blue cloud sweatshirt and our lilac cloud sweat that have both been hand-dyed from my studio in London and hand-painted by myself. Atm with travel being restricted and minimal movement allowed whilst we work from home, it was only right for me to paint the sky onto a lounge/going out piece. Do keep an eye on our website and socials as we may be introducing a responsible cotton matching sweatpant too! So you can lounge in full on head in the sky attire.

Below is our Exclusive Valentine’s hand painted multi-coloured heart sweatshirt. If you fancy spoiling your loved one or just yourself as it should be called ‘Self-love day’ especially in the times we are having now. Cosy up in our oversized unisex heart sweatshirt and wine and dine yourselves whilst watching your fave drama on Netflix!

We have also been working on a few hand embroidered self-love pieces. Below our ‘Im a Luxury’ white oversized unisex sweatshirt. Each letter is in a different colour and has been hand embroidered, which takes a little time as its so intricate. We like the extra 3-D effect of our embroidery as the machine embroidery looks so tight and neat! We are all so unique in our own way, I though this slogan was perfect for us all to wear with pride!

Another feel-good number we have been working on for you is our ‘Be a nice human’ black relaxed sweatshirt. Sizes come in men’s and women’s. We also have a matching black tote bag which is made from 100% cotton, imagine both worn together - hot!

Last but not least, our ‘Im Speaking’ white BCI approved hand-embroidered sweatshirt! Inspired by Kamala Harris. Growing up I always felt people do not listen as they assume your opinion is not worthy or you don’t appear to fit into their criteria to even stop to listen, but whatever to them as you do not always need to shout to have an opinion but be gracious and classy and have your own way to express the way you feel.

I hope you love my new collection of feel-good cosy sweatshirts. I hope the colours make you happy or whoever you’re gifting. I have just introduced some bigger sizes too, such as XXL and XXXL. Please let me know your thoughts and please please send us pictures on Instagram/TikTok of you in these pieces as we would love to see you in them! Stay safe and sending you positive vibes xx
