Inspired by a vintage newspaper bag, our Big Shop Tote has enough space for all your belongings. Featuring a thick shoulder strap, loop-tie, internal compartments and made from a naturally dyed 100% organic cotton.

The Sun Faded Capsule

One of the things we’ve always loved about vintage is the way garments fade after years of wear in the sun. Sometimes brands recreate that look with chemicals or artificial processes (some of the better ones use lasers which is very Star Trek). Natural dyes naturally fade (or, in some cases, darken (tan)) over time with exposure to the sun, making them more beautiful every day they’re worn. We don’t - we use the sun (also this is a reminder to always wear sunscreen).

The Sun Faded Capsule is a little slice of our R.T.S. line where we pre-fade items a little to get them started. They look gorgeous and vintage but their story isn’t finished. It's on to you to wear and love them to keep developing them. We’re releasing this in batches, and they’re quite time and labour-intensive so grab one if you like it because we aren’t sure when we can get more out in the sun.

CO-200ASF

This dye is a combination of natural indigo and madder - dyed in layers. Natural dyeing isn’t at all like mixing paints - you dont mix Indigo and Madder into purple and then dye with that - that would never work. It's more like creating different colours by shining light through different coloured lenses to create the one you want - we dye a layer of madder, then overdye with a layer (or sometimes layers) of natural indigo and we get this ‘blurple’ effect. 

What makes it particularly special is that the two dyes react differently to sunlight. Madder fades taking its red tones down to sherbert-y pinks relatively fast, while the natural indigo strain we use very slowly dulls so you end up with a fabric that goes from a ‘blurple’ to an almost purpley-elephant-grey-blue. At every stage it's ‘the best colour I’ve ever seen’ so it’s understandably everyone’s favourite dye that we do. It is, of course, also the most expensive and hardest to make - drawing upon every drip of expertise from the dyers to get right. We’re all really proud.

To fade them, as you might have guessed, we place them in the sun. It’s an homage to the sun-faded vintage we love. Again, to get this effect anywhere else you’d use chemicals or, in the most up-to-date wash houses, maybe lasers. Nevertheless, we prefer the sun. It will continue to fade and change as you wear and love it, but this gives it a good nudge in a beautiful direction.

Speaking of, when me and Katy were abroad once, we overheard someone in a vegan cafe post-yoga telling some other westerners about the power of walking outside naked in the morning light to “absorb the divine masculine” via your genitals. She was really passionate about it. I don’t think we finished our toast, but that really stuck with me, so in an effort to let go, I’m passing it on to you.

*Each piece features a unique fade, making every piece one of a kind. Fades will vary, and we’re unable to accommodate specific requests.

Superior construction & reasonable cost!
Color: Black, Size: 8x12
I had one old picture that was this odd size. I didn't want to spend a fortune, and this fit the price. When it came I was so impressed with the quality. Not glass, but I love the ease of construction with swinging tabs that held the back on instead of those cheap flat pegs you can't get back in the holes.. Excellant, superior. I love it! I hope it comes in more normal sizes as well, like 8x10, 11x14, 16x20 even!

Excellent solution at a great price point!!
Color: Black, Size: 5.5x8.5, Color: Black, Size: 5.5x8.5
Just received, opened package, and this is exactly what was needed. It fits certificates, documents perfectly. Needed the 8.5x5.5 size to fit a certificate and in prior years I had to to modify the document to fit a 5x7 frame (had no idea there was the perfect size available) and it was very low cost and very well made! The black frame has a soft texture which I love, and the Plexiglas material is rigid and not easily broken. It has numerous hanging or standing options.

Beautiful Non-Glass Frame
Color: Bronze, Size: 12x16
Love this frame!! I'm so in love with the new type of frame backing this one had! I hate those frames that have those tiny thin metal tabs that stick out where you have to bend up/down to remove backing but not this one! It has these really easy to use metal springs that you push down & turn & it easy pops out! Wish frames all came w actual glass! I thought this one had glass but was wrong, it has the thin plexiglass type covering where you remove the clear stickers from front/back. It will work but because I have it used in a bathroom, I will need to get a glass replacement eventually. Love the gold color, it's a really pretty gold, not overly yellow. Overall, I think its a nice frame & such a great value.

Gorgeous Distressed Bronze Frame, Easy to Hang
Color: Bronze, Size: 18x24, Color: Bronze, Size: 18x24
This bronze frame looks really, really good—honestly, it passes for real bronze at a glance. It has a nice distressed finish that gives it some character without overdoing it. It’s also surprisingly lightweight, which makes it much easier to hang on the wall. The overall build feels solid, and I don’t see any issues with it coming apart or feeling cheap. I especially like the back—everything is well thought out, from the sawtooth hangers to the tabs that make it easy to open and insert your print. I didn’t have my print yet to put in it, or I would’ve included a photo of it fully set up, but I added some pictures to show the detail and the back hardware. Great-looking frame, well made, and easy to work with. Definitely happy with it.

Color: Black, Size: 11x17
Love these frames, They are really good quality and feel sturdy, not cheap at all. They were very easy to set up and insert my pictures, which I really appreciate. The size is perfect for posters or photos, and they make everything look much more professional and elegant on the wall. I also like how they fit well with any home decor style
