I am all about making "green" choices in everyday life but clothing was one area where I couldn't get started with green choices.Simply because, clothes that were made from bamboo or other pre-washed materials were not giving me many choices.Not that I am try hard to wear chic clothes ALL the time, but when I do, I like to be comfortable, modest and chic.
c.marchuska is a brand that has made a breakthrough in offering not only sophisticated, chic clothing but they are made from sustainable resources.Isn't that a great concept in the fashion industry?
c. marchuska is an eco-friendly clothing line which provides chic and sustainable clothing at affordable prices. Manufactured in New York City, the clothing is designed to embody versatility throughout different trends and seasons in order to stay true to the sustainable fashion mantra of producing less waste. The sophisticated clothing with green beneļ¬ts is the perfect match for the socially conscious woman that doesn’t want to sacrifice style, price or comfort to help save the planet.
This eco-friendly & fashionable collection is the brainchild of Christine Marchuska and Brooke Bresnan, Together they produced clothing that is manufactured locally using materials from sustainable resources like bamboo viscose, tencel and organic cotton.
I had the opportunity to review a product for c.marchuska. I should confess that I had a hard time picking one!
First, I thought I'd pick the mseries t, long sleeve as it is great to wear for winter and feels soft against your skin with the heavy jacket I have to keep on. Then I thought of the sultry summers we have and this vivons vert tee would be a great choice with it's soft, 50% cotton 50% modal blend in a fitted silhouette tee, with epaulettes extending from the collar for a unique, yet polished stand alone look.And white is the comfort color of summer as it doesn't absorb heat.
When I came across their dresses, I become more attracted to how simple yet how comfortable they looked. Perfect for a mom-on-the go like me. This Christine Dress can make you look elegant with it's A line and Italian recycled polyester buttons.Can be worn just as a dress in summer or pair it up with your jeans when it gets colder!
I finally was convinced that one of these dresses will not only look great on me but that I will feel "comfortable" wearing them. I am picky when it comes trying fabrics and most of my clothes are cool cottons and soft fabrics. I picked the monika dress in distressed black for review and was eager to try it! When it arrived, it met all my expectations in terms of fabric - very, very soft and fitting, loved the length - it came just right up to my knee and all I need is a belt to go with this dress.I am ready to go out for dinner! After I had my son, dresses were not my favorite thing as I did not want to show off the flabs I got from pregnancy. Even though this is a fitting dress, I am blown away with the comfort that I don't care about my flabs!
It would be a neat idea if c.marchuska came up with a maternity line as their material is lovable and extremely comfortable which will be great for moms-to-be.
Oh, if you thought c.marchuska had clothes only for women, you are wrong! They have some nice t-shirts that will make a great gift for your man. It feels great on your skin and not heavy, so it is definitely going to be appreciated.
If you want to pick a gift for a woman, c.marchuska has a great collection for all seasons.Their dresses are hand dyed and all their clothes are made in the New York's Garment District, USA.
