I wanted to share some of my favorite brands, ones that I’ve vetted and truly support. Some of the links below are affiliate links (I’ll mark those with an asterisk). If you feel uncomfortable with affiliate links, don’t feel pressured to use them! I mostly wanted to include all of the discount codes I have available in one place, in hopes that it will help make some of these brands more accessible. I’ve organized everything in sections to make it easy to navigate! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about the brands below.

Jenni Kayne is a California-based lifestyle brand that focuses on timeless, classic pieces that you’ll wear forever. Two of my favorites are the recycled boyfriend sweater (35% alpaca, 35% RWS wool, 30% recycled polyester) and the recycled fishermen sweater (68% recycled cashmere, 30% cotton, 2% recycled wool).
Upcycled cashmere uses 80% less electricity, 98% less water, and 90% less carbon dioxide than non-recycled alternatives. RWS stands for “Responsible Wool Standard,” which ensures the welfare of animals and the land they graze on.

Whimsy + Row is an eco-conscious lifestyle brand located in Venice, California. Their clothing is created using ethical practices and made in small batches to eliminate unnecessary waste. They use locally sourced, upcycled, and low impact materials to create classic pieces that are meant to last for years to come.

If you’re in search of sustainable + ethically made undies, Knickey is a favorite of mine. They use organic cotton and Oeko-Tex certified materials + everything is knitted and dyed in a fair trade factory. They also accept and recycle used undies (even brands other than their own). Their recycling program upcycles old undies into insulation, rug pads, and rags. I’m a big fan of a brand that not only creates pieces that are good for the planet, but also thinks about what happens at the end of that piece’s life.

$10 Off Discount Code: knixpartner10
Did you know that over the course of a lifetime, a single menstruating human will use up to 15 thousand pads and tampons that will most likely end up in landfills as plastic waste? Knix is my favorite period-proof underwear and it’s a huge help in cutting down unnecessary plastic waste during my time of the month. I use them alone or with my flex cup.
I love Knix because they’re by far the most comfortable brand I’ve tried, the style is seamless, and it doesn’t feel like you’re wearing undies that are different than a normal pair. They’re not bulky and they don’t dig in.

Organic Basics is another one of my sustainable + ethical underwear faves. The set pictured above is made out of tencel, an eco-friendly fiber made from responsibly sourced wood pulp. It’s soft and lightweight. The brand is also working toward being completely carbon neutral (they even have a low impact website). They also offer products like organic cotton shirts, upcycled nylon workout legging, and recycled cashmere gloves.

Hilos is a new company based out of the PNW that has put a lot of care and innovation into eliminating waste. Their shoes are made-to-order, so no extras will end up being sent to landfill. 20% of all shoes created are never sold… That’s a lot of waste. They’re also 100% recyclable. At the end of their life, Hilos takes back the shoes and offers a discount on your next pair. All of their materials are sustainably and ethically sourced.
Their shoes are 3D printed, so they can be tailored to your exact foot measurements. They also use the same materials as running shoes, so they’re unexpectedly comfortable for a heel.

Hilma was born from the need for natural alternatives to what lives in our medicine cabinet — those colorful, sugary syrups and pills. Most of the natural options out there aren’t backed by science or clinical trials, so Hilma decided to change all of that. After two years of research, assembling a world-class team of scientists, and after three clinical studies, they created a line of natural products that actually work. My favorites are the tension relief and upset stomach relief — I’ve been a regular iuboprofen user in the past and have wanted to kick that habit for my tension headaches. I’m so glad to have found this alternative.

Wooden Spoon Herbs is my go-to for tinctures, tonics, and they have some of my favorite loose leaf teas. If you’re into plant-based herbal elixirs, WSH will definitely have something for you. My favorite items so far are the Aller-Ease tincture, House Call Tea, and Solar Flare Tea. I’m looking forward to trying their herbal coffee next!

CBD has been helping me get through the stress of 2020. I’ve tried both the tinctures and capsule versions of their CBD products and I love them both. They take the edge off of my anxiety and help me relax. They help with sleep as well! I even got a bottle of their CBD for pets because Hazel is a nervous pup around new people.
