Strong statement shirt by Supafemme
When I met the Munich label in the agency of a colleague of a colleague, I was extremely enthusiastic. A statement that is as simple as it is strong, contemporary implementation, sustainable production. Thanks to the two shirt lovers Ciara and Polly, who with their Munich power brand not only use the finest organic qualities and sustainable materials and (of course!) Produce under fair conditions in Portugal. With their T-shirts, hoodies, croped tops and jumpers, the two provide plenty of spotlight for self-love and female empowerment. Because #TheFutureIsSupafemme I like!

Keep smiling with LOQI
We don’t have that much to laugh about right now. Okay, now don’t whine. We’ll make the best of it anyway. But when the general circumstances really put pressure on the mind, the sweet smilies from LOQI will provide double the dose of joy from now on. Because a) you have to smile involuntarily at the sight of the friendly faces on shoppers, bags and weekenders. And b) the products of the Berlin-based brand are now made 100 percent from recycled materials AND are 100 percent recyclable.

Eternal love with Maren Jewelery
A piece of jewelry that always accompanies us and whose origin is not only linked to the giver but to an ethical promise made by the jewelry designer. Helge Hauptmann manufactures her collections exclusively from recycled gold and silver as well as synthetic diamonds. Why? So that the piece of jewelry not only looks good, but feels just as good. With each of her pieces of jewelery she wants to tell a story that is about love, passion and nature. Mission accomplished, I would say. The “A mindful love” heart pendant is handmade in Germany from (German) recycled 18 carat gold. The synthetic eco diamond comes from Switzerland.

Love is in the Air – sorry in the Cup – KPM
Hate and love. So far apart. And sometimes way too close together. The artist Mia Florentine Weiss therefore provides an urgently needed change of perspective in everyday life with her interpretation of the To Go mug from the Königliche Porzellanmanufaktur Berlin, which unites traditional craftsmanship and contemporary art like no other. With the hand-made porcelain mug, you not only save the idiotic disposable mug. With the To Go mug from KPM and Florentine Weiss, a loving message hits the street: love you? Love the other. Or is it the planet?
Limited to go mug from KPM + Mia Florentine Weiss Edition for 69 euros, @ kpm-berlin.com
Clean hands with Haan
What hasn’t changed in the past year. And so it is not surprising when you give your loved ones hand disinfectant. I have been an avowed Haan fan for a few months. Fan of the disinfectant, the practical and flattering shape, the fresh scent and the thought behind it. Because with Haan, not only our hands are disinfected (fragrant!). Eric Armengou and Hugo Rovira support water projects in Africa with 20 percent of the profit to give people access to clean drinking water. With the purchase of a 30ml Haan-Spray we make 134l of clean water possible in Africa. Haan has now built six wells. Honestly? Why should I disinfect my hands with something else?
Haan Hand Sanitizer available in different scents as a spray and refill, 3x30ml for 17.70 euros @ haanready.com
“Please, do not fall in LOVE” Shirt from Hey Soho
Zu spät. Denn in die fair produzierten und aus geprüften Materialien gefertigten Statement-Pieces des Hamburger Brand Hey Soho von Elise Seitz haben wir uns längst verliebt. Und by the way: Die Entstehungsgeschichte des Label ist fix mit einer Liebesgeschichte verbunden. Aber ein bisschen Augenzwinkern hat ja zum einen noch nie geschadet. Zum anderen kann ein Claim wie dieser auch der Openener für die ganz große Lovestory sein. Wer weiß…
Too late. We fell in love with the fairly produced statement pieces made from tested materials by the Hamburg brand Hey Soho by Elise Seitz. And by the way: The story of the label’s origins is linked to a love story. But on the one hand, a little wink has never hurt. On the other hand, a claim like this can also be the opener for the really big love story. Who knows…
