DESIGNER'S PICK

DESIGNER'S PICK

Blankens' Creative Director Cecilia Blankens on her feelings for our best-selling cardigan, The Kristin:

"I love a good knit. Few things are more comforting to me than soft materials wrapped around my body. With The Kristin I wanted to create that feeling in a piece of clothing not only meant for couch life at home (even though The Kristin sure does a fine job doubling as a blanket during Friday night movie marathons with the family) – but also for work, as well as for late night dinners with friends. In short: My wardrobe needed a cardigan that is equally comfy and stylish. Versatility is a key factor in all Blankens' designs. Since sustainability is one of our core values we keep that in mind also during the design process. All Blankens shoes, bags and knits are created to be worn and loved – a lot – and with everything else in your wardrobe.

I wear The Kristin over denim and a T-shirt when I pick the kids up from school, over a cozy PJ on a slow Sunday morning or over black pants, a shirt and heels when I go out to dinner."

THE BEST BAG YOU'LL EVER OWN?

Going to the beach, or just wants fashionably casual on a lazy summer day off? This handmade bag is both practical and trendy enough to be qualified a masterpiece – but what really makes us proud of The Josephine is the way it is produced.

Each bag is handmade in Kenya by a women's cooperative called Self Help Group. It consists of twelve women, and each bag takes about three weeks to produce. But the craftsmanship and high quality of the bags are not the main reason why we are so proud to work with them. Self Help Group is, above all, a great example of how women are able to become more independent by starting their own businesses, and profits from the bags go to important investments in areas such as education and farming.

As always, our goal is to make good products – for you and for society as a whole. So wear The Josephine (named after the leader of the group) with pride! The bag will be available in our online store, starting May 24.

Shop The Josephine now.
