Happy New Year!

We're off to a great start. We have new items in store for winter, including cozy socks, down-free puffy jackets, and denim--all for men and women.

Our nonprofit of the month is the Northwest Innocence Project, an organization that provides legal support to wrongfully convicted people.

Retail is slow in January  That's why it was disappointing to hear that our power will be shut off on Sunday, January 13th for maintenance. We will be closed that day. We are normally open 7 days a week because every sale counts. So to offset this zero sale day, we're having a Power to the People sale! This Saturday only (January 12th), everything will be 15% off and we'll donate 10% of all sales to the Northwest Innocence Project. So come on by! Thank you and we for your support!

And stay tuned for more fun events in February (such as a visit from some special bunnies).

It's fall. The leaves are turning colors, and the days are getting colder and shorter. It seems to be a lot of people's favorite season. In the store, we're enjoying sweater weather. We have a lot of cozy, wool-free sweaters and ponchos. Our Save the Duck jackets are selling fast, and new scarves and hats are arriving weekly.

What else is going on?

On November 15th, we're having a Vegan Appreciation Night. We're open late and open to all. Come in for sales and snacks and to get a head start on holiday shopping.

We are closed Thanksgiving Day. We will have Black Friday and Small Business Saturday sales. And a portion of all sales this month will go to the Bittersweet Autism Foundation.

See you soon!

Summer is winding down. We enjoyed meeting tourists from around the world, and we loved Seattle's long summer days (and nights). Soon the time for wearing light, loose eco clothing will end.

Now, as we plan ahead to fall, we're starting to receive new apparel and shoes for the upcoming season. There's a lot in store! Cozy organic cottons, soft bamboos, and rich hemp.

Fall goods are trickling in and summer inventory is on sale. Come on by!

Through August, we're supporting Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. Over the summer, we helped raise funds for Sky's The Limit, One Heart Wild and the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project. We have lots of other nonprofits in mind for future months, and all profits from our glass straws, eco utensils, and reusable coffee cups go to Vital Action Project.

We are so excited to be planning our second anniversary! In a fickle world, where a lot of small businesses don't make it to the first-year mark, we're happy to be turning two. And we couldn't have done it without you! Our customers are loyal and are proving that there is a demand for fair, eco-friendly, vegan clothing.

The store wouldn't be in such great shape if it weren't for the wonderful staff you see day in and day out. I'm forever grateful to them, especially employees One and Two who have been with me from the start! That's commitment!

They also have a free clothing boutique for the women they serve. If you bring in consignment-quality, in-season clothing to our event, we'll give you an additional discount!

They say the first year of a business is the hardest. It's been a lot of work, a lot of learning, but overall, a great success. Thank you to each and every one of you for believing in vegan, eco-friendly clothing and getting us to this point.

We're having a two-day celebration on May 20th and 21st. We'll have sales, snacks, giveaways, and al all-round good time. Wear something from Drizzle & Shine for an extra discount!
