Fall is my favorite time of the year. The cool crisp air, light weight clothing that is comforting, beautiful vibrant colors, and sweet pumpkin scents... ah.. I can't wait!! My favorite fabric in the Fall is bamboo. The fabric is light weight, soft and luxurious, the fabric keeps you warm when it's cool and cool when it's warm, and it has natural UV protection. There are other qualities- but the FTC won't allow us to talk about them...
You can read some of my previous reviews about bamboo here: Bamboosa vs. FTC, Bamboosa Baby Blanket
One of my favorite bamboo clothing companies is Bamboosa. They make certified organic bamboo baby clothing and accessories, kid socks, accessories, soap bars, bamboo powder, and adult clothing right here in America... Actually, they are only 3 hours from me in SC! I got the chance to tour the facility last year and was beyond impressed! Here is a short video shot for Franklin Goose when I was working for them.
The Bamboosa factory is so safe, I even got to have E with me! She had a Franklin Goose tee shirt made from a women's XS and it fit perfectly. It has been one of her favorite tees. So I contacted them a year later, in hopes maybe they had extended their child line. Sadly, they haven't yet, but still sent me a XS tee with a BambooBaby Print E for Earth design on it for E!
Isn't that sweet? It's a tiny bit big, but super cute and will make a great playtime tee or even night shirt! The BambooBaby Prints run in sizes S (0-6 mo.), M (6-12 mo.), L (12-18 mo.). You can choose from short sleeved or long sleeved should lap tees, onesies, or cuddlesac. E is in 6T clothing and the XS woman size tee fits her. The short sleeve fit her when she was in 4T clothing. You might have to alter the long sleeve tee for you kiddo if you like it as much as I do!!
They also threw in a few Bamboo tees and a Slip Sleep for me!! I am in love with how they feel! I will be back with pictures of me later. :)
