We've always believed that style is more than fabric and fit it's a reflection of who you are and what you stand for. That's why we're so excited to introduce our newest piece: the Choose Kindness Vintage Inspired Retro Sweatshirt.
This isn't just another cozy layer. It's a wearable reminder for yourself and everyone you cross paths with that kindness is always in style.
The Design
We wanted something that felt nostalgic, warm, and effortlessly cool. The result is a vintage inspired sweatshirt with a relaxed fit, soft hand feel, and a simple but powerful message front and center.
The retro aesthetic pairs perfectly with our bohemian collections think flowy skirts, layered jewelry, and your favorite well worn jeans. It's the kind of piece that gets softer with every wash and better with every wear.
The Material
One of the important things to note about this jumper is that it’s made with French Terry Cotton so it is breathable but also warm, as it’s quite thick. But because it’s cotton, it won’t leave fluff all over your dark colors—which, for me, when I’m going to yoga, is important.
Also, obviously, the kindness message, which at this point in time is more important than ever. It’s also beautifully made with contrast stitching and a slightly oversized style without being overwhelming and super long.
Why "Choose Kindness"?
In a world that can feel rushed and overwhelming, we wanted to create something that grounds you. A gentle nudge to lead with compassion toward others and yourself.
Wearing this sweatshirt isn't performative. It's intentional. It's a small, everyday choice to put a little more good into the world.
