Go Home to Mini Rodini

We spend one-third of our lives in bed so let’s make it count! Mini Rodini has just released a collection of organic bedding free from the hazardous nightmares normally found in conventional fabrics. The collection is also certified by GOTS and Fairtrade. The manufacturing of conventional fabrics often requires an enormous number ofchemicals that eventually end up in our bedrooms. This choice of bedding is not only better for our planet, but also our health. You can also get your ZZZ’s guilt free because GOTS is the strictest certification for organic material on the market today and includes rigid controls throughout the entire manufacturing process. The cotton farmers who produce the cotton used in this product have fair working- and living conditions. Having two independent certifications function as an extra safety and warranty that Mini Rodini’s products are both sustainably and ethically produced. Mini Rodini acknowledges that the clothing industry is one of the world’s largest polluters and consumes more water than agriculture. They take responsibility for their own industry, but also speak out against fast fashion and seek to educate their consumers. ‘How you care for your garment accounts for 25 % of its environmental impact. Let’s make the best out of those numbers.’ Mini Rodini And the best part is the collection is absolutely ADORABLE! Take our money please. @mini_rodini Available in Australia from kidostore.com

Madri, Mum’s Breast Friend

In the words of Chanel ‘Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live and what is happening’. This is why we must rid ourselves of the idea that fashion should stop once we become mothers, especially while we are breastfeeding. Motherhood is a celebration of life, so why not celebrate in style? We’re not talking designer gowns, we mean the kind of effortlessness and chic simplicity of Madri Collection. Their ‘ready-to-mother line’ empowers women to breastfeed everywhere and to remain stylish (and comfortable) while doing so. Madri Founders Ashley Melone and Danielle Walish were inspired by the Italian culture, which holds the mother on the highest pedestal and unapologetically celebrates style. They believe in superior garments, which allow mothers to nurse their baby effortlessly, whether at the breast or via pump. Madri pieces are made in New York City from quality textiles with the intention of feeling good against the skin for both mother and babe. Each design has been cleverly tailored to allow access without feeling overexposed. This aims to empower women to feel more comfortable breastfeeding in all situations, from their offices, to restaurants, to parties. madricollection.com@madricollection

Jag & Knox: From the Ground Up to the Street

From the ground up…to the street! Jag & Knox is a kid’s street-wear label designed by mum of 2, Jordan McCarthy. The micro label produces trendy gender-neutral garments with a raw edge feel. After previously owning a women’s fashion boutique with her sister, Jordan’s love of fashion never died. ‘As much as spending all day playing monster trucks and watching Cat in the hat 10 times a day is fun, we all deserve a bit of time out and time to do something we love,’ says Jordan. It’s easy to dream of creating the next best small business or clothing line, but Jordan literally picked up a pen and paper, began sketching and made it a reality. Now, as she describes ‘With a 10 month old hanging off my leg’ she singlehandedly runs Jag & Knox, designing the clothes, marketing and running of the social media and website. Here’s a clap and a cheer for working mums! @jagandknoxjagandknox.com.au

Boho Baby: Cinta Child

Cinta Child (pronounced Chinta) means love in Indonesia… therefore love child! Cinta Child was started by Jacinda Thompson, a boho, beach loving mum of two in 2014. On a trip to what Jacinda refers to as her ‘Island Home’ Bali she embarked on finding girls crochet pieces, which she discovered were not readily available. This led her to approaching a friend who could crochet. She then began sourcing other local hand picked fabrics to suit her vision. ‘I love that I can provide employment and income to some less fortunate to us, who are super talented and love what they do! Every item is hand made and quality checked to ensure our customers are getting a quality product, says Jacinda. Children Imani and Marlo are Jacinda’s muses and the two adorable boho babes featured in many of the Cinta Child look book photos. The brand stocks everything from baby blankets, baby clothes, rompers, dresses, shirts, jewellery and headpieces for both boys and girls.
