Christmas Giveaway #5: Kallio NYC

I've been a longtime subscriber to the Very Short List newsletter and I adore the interesting articles and websites that they feature. But when I saw sweet little childrens clothing in the VSL email, I was a bit surprised. They were drawing attention to an adorable made-in-NY shop called Kallio NYC that takes used men's oxford shirts and repurposes them into children's outfits and accessories. I don't usually see children in the newsletter so it was a sweet and very gratefully received surprise.

So, for the last of the 2012 Christmas Giveaways, you have the chance to win any piece from Kallio NYC!


shop / facebook / twitter

Karina (the owner and maker behind Kallio) has put care into being thoughtful about their creative practices and has produced an adorable collection based on this mindset.

"Kallio was inspired by a desire to re-look at the clothing industry from the perspective of sustainable practices. 
For our first seasons collection, pre-loved men’s shirts are collected, sorted, dissected, resewn in ethical factories and given new life. Nothing is wasted. 

The basic clothing from previous generations becomes the one-of-a-kind fashion of the next. The cycle continues."


I don't think I can take any more cuteness. 



Are those not the most adorable clothes ever?!? So cute and cozy and 100% made in the USA. (Side note, I wish I had that little blonde lady's hair:)



Karina is giving away ANY PIECE from her shop to our winner! How cool is that? And as a bonus, Karina is giving all JT and the Sea readers a 10% discount with the code JTANDTHESEA2012 , valid until December 31, 2012.

To Enter, 

Visit Kallio NYC and leave a comment telling us your favorite piece. Make sure to leave your email in the comment so we can get a hold of you!

    I would probably force myself to choose between the collared long sleeve school dress or the hooded cape. Too cute!

    Such a great idea, and such beautiful designs. It has to be the hooded cape, size 2 in red/black buffalo plaid. Which one do you have your eye on, Jenny?
