VIOLET RIOT!

Mea culpa:  I tend to buy cheap when it comes to my kids clothes.  The deals at Target make me squee with joy.  And shopping at Ross usually requires a change of underwear.  But, lets face it -- there is a reason why these clothes are so inexpensive.  Mass-produced, factory-line assembly style stuff is not only... well... (sigh) mundane, but treads heavily on the environment.   And, given the way some countries play fast and loose with child labor laws, you sometimes have to wonder if the people making the cute little onesies are only a few years older than the babies wearing them.

So, I've decided to make a change.   Violet Riot  is a new clothing line for kids that offers chic and badass fashion statements. 


I offer the following pictorial evidence:



Not only are these shirts adorable, but each applique design is made from a recycled T-shirt -- essentially, almost all of their items are completely unique.  And, their clothes are gentle on the environment!  And since I'm so not ready to start composting, I feel like buying from Violet Riot is an important baby-step I can take to help the environment.

I hope you will all check out the Violet Riot clothing line!

  2. Very cute! However, as my boys all hover around or above the 6' mark, I don't think I'd find their size!
