Why Organic Cotton

Traditionally grown cotton is one of the most chemically intensive crops, accounting for 25% of the world’s pesticide and herbicide use. It takes almost a third of a pound of chemicals to grow the cotton for just one t-shirt. These chemicals, including known carcinogens, end up contaminating our food, air and water supply affecting the health of the growers and the end users. Organic cotton is grown without chemical pesticides and fertilizers and certified through a third party.

How to measure TOP
Here are some tips to help you order the correct size. If you don't have a measuring tape, use a piece of string and hold it alongside a ruler.

Your bust: With arms relaxed at your sides, measure the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the ground.

Your waist: Measure around your waist at the narrowest part of your torso. Keep tape parallel to the floor and one finger between the tape and your body.

Your hips: Stand with your heels together and measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape parallel to the ground.

Your sleeve: With your arm bent at 90 degrees, place your hand on your hip. Begin at the center of the back of your neck and measure across the shoulder to your elbow down to the wrist.

Your inseam: Measure pants that fit you well, from crotch to the hem.

Hope that helps!
