IGLO + INDI - at the The Nordic Cool Girl’s Guide to Reykjavik


by







The Nordic Cool Girl’s Guide to Reykjavik




Helga Ólafsdóttir, founder and creative director of children’s label Iglo & Indi, 42
This ultimate Icelandic mompreneur has taken her flair for artful design and all things hygge, applying it to the country’s most well-known childrenswear label.

Her spot: Skólavörðustígur Street, where Ólafsdottir has her flagship Iglo & Indi store. “When this cute house became available on my favorite street in Reykjavik, it was a dream come true. All my other favorite shops are here in this neighborhood and our place has a very homey vibe.”

Must-see: “I love being near Hallgrímskirkja church, which is such an architectural monument here in Reykjavik and super Scandinavian in design. It’s wonderful to see even in the winter when it’s dark. It’s a really special place and having a view of it from my shop is so wonderful.”

Café society: “My favorite place for coffee is Reykjavik Roasters, right around the corner from my store.”

Fish fix: “Seafood is my absolute favorite, and it’s so good here in Iceland. I recommend classic spots Þrir Frakkar, Messinn, and Jómfrúin.”

Icelandic inspo: “The colors of the sky and sea here—every day I look at it and it has a lot of influences on my style and my line, color-wise.”

THE 10 BEST ECO-FRIENDLY, SUSTAINABLE BRANDS FOR YOUR BABY

by







Photographed by Mario Testino, Vogue, November 2008


The best way to celebrate Earth Day today? Incorporate eco-conscious, environmentally, and ethically minded items into your child-care routine, and help ensure a greener, happier future. A fresh crop of brands has appeared with offerings for new moms that are sustainable, charitable, and completely cute. Start with Billie Bloom’s unisex cotton bloomers, in springtime-appropriate ginghams and florals; not only are they locally made and naturally sourced, the company also donates to Every Mother Counts with each pair. For onesies, toys, booties, and bedding, Finn + Emma offers 100 percent organic, fair-trade goods for infants and toddlers. It’s hard to resist a good collaboration, and the Edun for J.Crew line will outfit your child in the best bold prints (that help create jobs and promote trade in Africa). On the footwear end, Brother Vellies is a line of sustainably produced shoes in rich colors, handmade in Kenya, South Africa, and Namibia; a portion of its children’s shoe sales goes towards children’s education in South Africa (including the kids of their craftsmen and women).
This Earth Day is the perfect time to take a new approach to dressing your little one; here are the best products that are good for your baby and good for the planet.
