It feels like everything is starting to brighten up with the days warmer, the evenings lighter and the restrictions getting less and less! There is a real positive vibe in the air and what better way to show it than some feel good clothes from some great small businesses?
Olive and Frank are a lovely small business that sell great quality clothing with positive messages. They’re striving to be more sustainable and have a lovely range of T-shirts that are made from organic cotton. I love this The Magic in You tee for £32.
If you’re after something really bright and playful, Hello Dodo are definitely one to check out. They do really fun clothes for adults and kids alike. Many of their products are from a climate eco factory and they post their goods without plastic. I love the seaside pun tees in particular like the Gulls tee below.
Hello Dodo
I really enjoy Limpet Store which has some brilliantly random handmade t-shirt and jumper designs. Many of the designs champion body positivity and female empowerment. They have a great embroidered David Attenborough sweatshirt – 10% of all proceeds of this product go to the WWF so not only is it fun but supportive.
Tea Please are another great find for fun t-shirts and jumpers. Their tees are made from organic cotton and shipped in recyclable and biodegradable packaging. They have a range of tees from super sassy slogans to cute designs. I love their embroidered designs with the plant more flowers tee below being my fave.
Etsy is always a good shout for clothing made by small businesses. One seller to shout out is Reel Rebellion :a one woman band in Norwich selling some really cute hand embroided tees. The new animal range is really lovely.
Another great place is Depop where you can buy second hand clothes from people – this is such a sustainable and planet kind option. It’s also full of bargains! I’ve just started using the app and already love it! I just picked up a fab new lightweight trench coat for £20 – originally £60 on ASOS! It’s also a good way to reduce clothing waste.
Hopefully this has given you a bit of inspo for some fun clothes to get from some lovely sellers. I know clothing sales are likely to be on the up with social life now returning and it feels great to be able to support small businesses and use second hand outlets for this rather than giving money to the fast fashion brands.
