I love shopping for clothes. Maybe it’s genetic, but my tot seems to share the same passion for fashion that I do. I came across Monkey Hugz and was drawn in by the bright colored clothes up on their website. At a closer look, I saw that all of their clothes were organic–always a bonus! Monkey Hugz kindly sent us a Kimono-Style Long-sleeve shirt in Red for review.
The shirt is made by Positively Organic, “combining earth-friendly materials and sweatshop-free manufacturing with bold graphics, bright colors and hip yet simple designs.” I love the style of this shirt. The criss-cross cut is unique and girly. The cotton is ultra-soft, too! With the bright red color this shirt can easily be paired with a black skirt or pants for your tot’s for all the holiday parties you may be toting your kids to. It’s made with 100% organic cotton with non-toxic dyes. I love how the design is carried through from the waist to the wrist of the shirt. We’ve washed the shirt three times and the shirt has retained the bright red that attracted me to it in the first place. The long-sleeve Kimono-style shirt sells for $28 and is available in sizes 2T-4T. My 41″ daughter is in a 4T.
Monkey Hugz has other items that peaked my interested, too. I came across this fabulous Pea Coat (it’s next on my “to buy” list!) for only $26!
My daughter is very into using a paper towel with dinner, and I know she would love these People Towels (her entire bedroom is owls!). Importantly, it would also serve as a reminder to reduce waste by using reusable products. Retails for $8.
Monkey Hugz is owned by John and Hillary Mizia. It is a natural parenting and baby store focused on sustainability. They carry a selection of durable, useful and reuseable wares, and are interested in educating their consumers, too! They have many useful links, including the “Why Pages”, where they provide you with a quick answer to some of the “why should I care” questions, from breastfeeding to BPA to organic cotton and more.
