Last month I was introduced to a brand that just has the best loungewear, activewear, and bedding. The items are made of Viscose from Bamboo. It is soft you will not want to get out of it. The brand is Kickee Pants, and they have something for everyone.

This line is a comfortable and incredibly sustainable bamboo clothing line for the whole family.  KicKee Pants offers playful and charming styles while being extraordinarily breathable, soft and cozy for all seasons. KicKee Pants was created in 2007 when Aerin Nicole was on bed rest while pregnant with her second child. She was inspired by her own children to design a line that would “celebrate innocence” with designs that were both fashion-forward as well as unrestrictive and, comfortable and fabrications that are eco-friendly and suited to baby’s delicate skin. All fabrics and designs are exclusive to KicKee Pants, and the process is maintained from the fabric mill to the finish.”

Their goal is to provide clothing that is unrestrictive and allows everyone to be comfortable and stylish.

KicKee Pants products, the quality was immediately felt upon picking the items up. The items have a nice sturdy weight and feeling to them, but are oh so very soft. They just mold and stretch as you feel them and I have fallen in love with it. I love the pajamas and the loungewear. They are also pieces that I love wearing during the warm summer which includes rompers and soft tees.

An interesting and fascinating fact about the KicKee Pants clothing line is that all of their bamboo collections are interchangeable (all colors and styles can be mixed and matched.) I have always had difficulty when shopping. If the clothing is not enough to impress you then you are going to love Kickee Pant’s new line of bedding.

The bedding like everything else is perfect, and it will make it harder for you to get up in the morning.

The Bamboo fabric takes on the unique qualities of the plant, making it naturally antibacterial, anti-fungal and antistatic

  • Bamboo has a natural wicking ability, keeping you warm, dry and odor-free
  • Bamboo can be naturally soft and silky without additional chemical processing (the process used to create fabric for KicKee Pants is 100% natural and organic), making it the perfect match for delicate skin
  • Bamboo fiber is completely biodegradable, meaning the special KicKee Pants blend is as close to nature as possible
  • Because of the high percentage pf bamboo used in their unique fabric, KicKee Pants garments take on a unique well-worn look that adds character and cozy softness to the unique fabric

Kickee pants will make the perfect gifts for those special individuals in your family.

 

 

 

Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements

Recently, I have been working on better ways of taking care of ourselves while at home, and I decided to turn my attention to all the males out there. I recently discovered that shaving once was drastically different than what it has now become. Mostly all who return to this form of shaving agree, it’s better. Better for your face, better for your wallet, and just plain better for the planet! Turns out all one needs is a shave brush, a tub of soap, and a traditional safety razor!

With this new insight, I decided to poke around online and in doing so, I stumbled upon this wonderful male grooming company that really takes you back to the traditional shaving of yesteryear, Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements (or Phoenix Shaving).


Their site boasts a large catalog of unique, artisan shaving soaps, aftershaves, safety razors, and other male grooming accessories. It becomes immediately obvious that the artisans take great pride in their offerings while tipping their hat to the past; selecting and rebooting razor designs from the golden age of shaving, reimagining classic aftershaves, only up until now, lost to time, and all the while maintaining an atomic age aesthetic of pure adventure and excitement! Phoenix Shaving is truly, more than just shaving.

This cutting edge company really makes it easy to fall in love with their quirky branding and huge line of offerings. Whether you are a vintage shaving connoisseur, a beard and moustache enthusiast, or a soap hoarder, they truly have something for everyone! We especially recommend them for anyone looking to break away from the boring, overused modern male scents and, as their motto puts it, Try Something Different!

 

 

Celebrate a Special Occasion with Clarkson Avenue Crumb Cake Company

If you have a special occasion coming such as a graduation, birthday, or other celebration and can’t be there you will want to consider sending a crumb cake from Clarkson Avenue Crumb Cake Co.  They offer some of the best coffee cakes online.  With unique flavors to peak anyone’s interest and their Crumb Cake of the Month special flavors, your recipient will love these cakes.  Plus you might need to find some other occasions just to get some more crumb cakes in your life too.

About Clarkson Avenue Crumb Cake Co.

Growing up in Brooklyn during the 1950’s it was a much simpler life. As kids, the owners found pleasure in small things, a sack of marbles, and bottle caps to play “skully”. Enjoying all the treats your neighborhood had to offer. A good dill pickle, a great knish. Brooklyn pizza and, oh yes, Crumb Cake.

The “crew” Clarkson Avenue loved this stuff. It was a special, pure pleasure that the family enjoyed together, especially picking the crumbs off the cake. Over the year, it just seemed like we couldn’t get the same kind of crumb cake we had as kids. So, at the Clarkson Avenue Crumb Cake Company, we set out to fix that. Our cakes are moist, our crumbs are plump the combination is perfection.

These cakes are perfect to celebrate holidays and any occasion in your life. Then you are one, and done with these cakes. I got to try the “Campfire Crumb”. It is a chocolate cake, with homemade marshmallow cream, chocolate ganache and graham cracker crumb.

These crumb cakes will be time savers when events and stuff come up.  Just order up a Clarkson Avenue Crumb cake and send it to the person.

You just store them in the fridge, and then you can freeze them if you do not plan to eat them soon.
