31 Bits Summer is now available in store!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the brand, 31 Bits is a jewelry line that was started by Kallie Dovel. In 2007 she travelled to Northern Uganda and was inspired by the women who were set out to make a positive change in their lives. Her company, 31 Bits, recognizes the skills these women have in making beautiful recycled paper beads. It incorporates fashion and design to empower the women of Uganda to rise against poverty. Since its inception, the 31 Bits program has grown to over 100 women. The program offers English lessons, finance training, community groups and health education to their team of Ugandan women. 31 Bits is committed to helping the women attain sustainable means of income so they don’t fall back into the poverty cycle.

This season we’re seeing a lot of punchy tones in tangy oranges, limes, berry blues and bubble gum pinks showcased in some of our favourite styles such as the Daphne, as well as in some new pieces.

Add some light denim to your wardrobe this season for an easy Summer look. Kut and Bella Dahl are on trend with the classic button-down shirt and shirt dress that you can wear as a tunic. Both have introduced Tencel to their collections this Summer-a comfortable biodegradable material made from wood pulp cellulose. Gentle Fawn is keeping it trendy with the classic chambray dress. We are loving the subtle floral print on this one! Pair any of these looks with our favourite 31 Bits pieces, BC Shoes sandals, Element fedoras or new Toms sunglasses!
