Celtic & Co.
I’m a sweater girl through and through. I love getting bundled up in coziness during the cooler months, and I wish we had more of them in Florida! I am taking full advantage of being able to wear this beautiful cardigan from Celtic & Co. as much as possible over the next few months.
Reasons to Love Celtic & Co.
Slow Fashion Since the Beginning: This wonderful brand started nearly 30 years ago in Cornwall, England, and has always been committed to creating products that last for many years. With so many brands manufacturing disposable clothing, it's becoming increasingly difficult to find those that take pride in their craft. Celtic & Co. produces everything with care, from their renowned sheepskin boots to their cozy outerwear for both men and women, all of which are mindfully and locally crafted.
Natural Fibers: Most of the sweaters available today are made of synthetic fibers such as acrylic and polyester. These fibers release plastic microfibers into the oceans and water supply during each wash, which is harmful to the environment. On the other hand, natural fibers such as wool, which are used by Celtic & Co., are biodegradable and therefore more eco-friendly. Wool has numerous benefits such as being wrinkle-resistant, durable, breathable, and odor-resistant. It is an ideal fiber that provides warmth without the use of synthetic materials. In addition to wool, Celtic & Co. also uses byproduct shearling, leather, and wax cotton, which is perfect for wet days.
Ongoing Commitment: This is something I love to hear about with brands! Celtic & Co. has a monthly Sustainability Working Group to discuss their environmental impact, plastic reduction, and energy consumption. There is always room for improvement, and knowing a brand takes action throughout the year is crucial for me as a customer.
Reducing Waste: If you happen to buy a pair of their boots, do not throw them away after the sole is worn down. They will happily repair it for you!
What I’m Wearing
Cable Cardi: This is one of those styles I will never grow tired of. It’s timeless and can be paired with almost anything in your closet. When I was younger, I hated when my mom would want to dress me up in a cardigan, but now I see how practical they genuinely are (& if I had a daughter, I would be doing the same!!). This one is made in Europe with 100% wool. The buttons are lovely and made from coconuts! I love the dropped shoulders, which can help give your outfit a more relaxed yet effortless feel. And how perfect is this oatmeal color?
I’ve styled it three ways so you can see just how versatile this piece is - from daytime to evening to lounge!
