regenerate!


cupro
is the european cousin of tencel. similar to rayon in that it is reprocessed cellulose, but cupro is much more like tencel.

cupro gets its name from cuprammonium that is used to process the wood pulp or cotton linters that are the base material for cupro. like tencel, the base material for cupro is a regenerated cellulose fiber, and the fabric breathes like cotton, drapes beautifully, and feels like silk on your skin.

cupro is not synthetic, nor is it a man-made fabric. it is considered a regenerated fabric, in other words, it is reclaimed from natural products! yay cupro!

cedar, smoke, chartreuse.







summertime
makes me dream about clothing.

every season does i guess, but in different ways.

one of my favorite things to do is window shop on the computer and merchandise my dream outfits.

here's one of them.

i couldn't exactly find a skirt
but i definitely know i would want something that looks like that yellow smokey explosion.
