A truly stylish, easy to wear, feel good collection for the summer! The entire Elroy collection retails for under $120 CAD and is made from organic, sustainable fabrics: soft-as silk tencel chambray denim, organic cotton and wild, raw silk – vegan friendly as the silkworms are unharmed in the production of the fabric.

Designers Shawna Robinson and Natalie Sydoruk have been collaborating since March 2007 on their clothing line, Label. The idea was born out of their mutual desire for quality clothing that fit their unique lifestyles. Shawna, a freelance wardrobe stylist and aspiring artist, and Natalie, a model, both desired clothing that would allow them to bounce around the city looking polished and modern, without compromising comfort, aesthetics or their dignity.

Natalie and Shawna are deeply committed to creating clothing from an ethical standpoint, utilizing, wherever possible, organic, renewable or reclaimed fibers for their garments. Production is by local and all fabric waste is used by a local stuffed creature artist.

HollyBeth Anderson had been making her own organic creams for years as a hobby, but it was upon her return to the US that HollyBeth became aware of all the chemicals and synthetic ingredients that were added to many beauty products. Finding companies that were truly natural became frustrating and HollyBeth recognized a place in the market for her handmade organic goodies. She approached local boutiques with samples of her homemade body creams and soon turned her passion into a business venture.

HollyBeth’s refreshing face and body products moisturize and pamper the skin in a gentle and pure manner. All products are made with certified organic therapeutic grade essential oils and are free from chemical preservatives and synthetic colorings, so you can be sure you are using the very best for your skin and for the environment.

HollyBeth’s Natural Luxury uses the highest quality ingredients available, seeking out local suppliers who farm their essential oils and plant extracts using environmentally conscious techniques. The company strives to create pure and natural products that nourish the body and soul. Each product is handcrafted in artisan size batches to ensure freshness and unmatched quality.

Constantly striving to educate the consumer about the health benefits of eco-friendly personal care, each and every product in the collection is made using certified organic and natural ingredients and packaging is 100% recyclable. HollyBeth believes in giving back and supports various local and global charities with proceeds.

**note from grechen: I’ve just seen that she’s based in Atlanta!! It’s kind of funny how now that I’m on my way out, I’m discovering new places to visit. I’m definitely going to try some of her lip balm and can just imagine how wonderful the candles smell!
