Carrie Recycled Wool Jumper - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Morning ladies. I can't believe another month has whizzed by so quickly & it's already time to take a look at my top ten picks from Baukjen's latest collection. But before we start I wondered if you were aware that Baukjen are a sustainable brand, who are a member of the Fashion Pact & are B Corp certified? Neither did I until recently.
So what does it mean? Well firstly their mission is to put people & the planet at the heart of everything they do. With the aim of driving lasting positive change in the fashion industry with sustainable practices & an ethnical supply chain.
I think we can all agree that a lot of us have started to make more considered purchases both due to the environment & the uncertainly & crazy times this year has brought. One of the things I love about Baukjen (apart from the fact you know you're going to get a high quality, well designed piece) is that they create timeless clothing. Pieces that can be intermixed & will stand the test of time.
Part of their core values is not only social responsibility & sustainability but also transparency so us as the consumer can see who they are, what they stand for & also who makes their clothes. As an off shot of this Baukjen provide an equal, inclusive & safe environment for their employees & believe that every one of them should feel valued & respected.
Something else I didn't realise but as part of their social responsibility Baukjen also support charities, recycle & donate to develop a circular textile economy. Every year they give at least 10% of their profits to charity, including women's shelters, Women's Aid & Save The Children. Plus you can even send back your old Baukjen clothing & they will ensure it is sustainably recycled.
Along side this Baukjen use many natural fibres in their fabrics, only source wool from farms practising safe sheep husbandry methods & work with their mills to reduce the amount of water consumption & pollution. Plus as I briefly mentioned in last month's post (see here) some of their fabrics are made from recycled clothing & their packaging is 100% plastic free, recyclable & biodegradable. For more details on the changes Baukjen have made & are continuing to make see here.
In the meantime let's get back to their latest collection & the pieces to have caught my eye. Firstly with winter fast approaching who doesn't love a chunky cosy knit & Baukjen have some great offerings this season. Starting with the above jumper, which is also available in navy blue here.
Tamara Jumper - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
If you love your leather/wax coated leggings as much as me then a longer length jumper is a real wardrobe staple & the above one in camel is perfect for teaming with all our wardrobe neutrals.
Maeva Ecotec Jumper - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
You probably don't need me to explain why the above jumper has made it into my top ten - leopard print paired with sleeve detailing what's not to love?!
Langley Ecotec Jumper - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Equally a 'V' neck jumper such as the above is perfect for layering over a simple white shirt whether it be you classic collared number or even one with a frill neckline.
Sacha Leather Skirt - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
We can probably all agree that a simple 'A' line leather skirt is always going to be in fashion - whether dressed down with a cosy knit as shown above or paired with a pretty statement top for a night out.
Palmer Ecovero Dress - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Then of course you have the little black dress - the 'go to', dress it up & dress it down number that will never let you down. I just love the detailing on Baukjen's Palmer dress above - the statement sleeve, the tummy flattering pleat detailing & the slimming 'V' neckline all make it a very stylish number that will flatter all body shapes.
Amaya Ecovero Dress - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
For a more everyday style you can't beat a throw it on maxi dress that can be teamed with a leather biker jacket & trainers, as well as dress up with heeled sock boots & a blazer.
Beatrice Leather Clutch - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Of course every great outfit also needs stylish timeless accessories such as the above leather clutch that will add a subtle injection of colour to many an outfit & is the sort of accessory that will only bet better with age & time.
Keisly Recycled Fleece - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Finally whether you find yourself spending more time at home & dressing accordingly or are a gym buddy then stylish loungewear is a must. I just love the above fleece for throwing over your gym kit whilst on the school run or running errands.
Marte Organic Longline Sweatshirt - get 20% off with code MYMIDLIFE20
Plus it would be perfect for pairing with the above longline sweatshirt.
Back to today & I've wearing a couple of new gifted pieces from Baukjen that I'm in love with. Like I mentioned earlier I love my leather & faux leather leggings/trousers so a chunky longer length jumper is one of my 'must haves' for this time of year & you know how I have a huge weakness for a stripe! In terms of sizing I went with my normal size (an 8) in the jumper & because I like my bretons to be on the oversized side I decided to size up to a 10.
