Welcome to my store…

Hi, I’m Zoe and I’d like to tell you a little about me and my store.

The internet is swarming with online stores: You know it. I know it. The whole world knows it.

One store will offer you endless sales & discounts & coupons. Another will harass you with spammy emails that you soon regret singing up for. Another will ask ludicrous prices for designer items that you know in your heart have been made in sweat shops in a Developing countries. “Buy from me!” they urge, “You know you need this to feel better/happier/more fashionable/in-the-loop”. So sometimes you do buy “it”, and mysteriously, you find you don’t really feel like they promised you would. Or at least, not for very long.

All this shop-buy-consume hype makes me feel overwhelmed and manipulated.

So I deiced to start a store that would be the very opposite of all this. I want my lovely customers to feel appreciated, and to know that when they purchase something from my store, they are genuinely contributing to a happier and healthier word. And here is how, my dears: We plant trees in Australia for all our new customers, part of our profits each month go to sponsoring a little boy in Kenya through Plan, and we regularly donate to various social enterprises around the world. And you help to make all this possible, so Thank You.

By choosing to give your support to ethical, Eco-friendly, handmade Labels, like the ones I stock in my store, you help to make the invisible aspects of the retail industry , visible: We consider the rights of the person working in the sweat shop, the impact on the environment & what kind of future we want for our children.

All my best,

Zoe Le Page

Torquay, Australia.
