This is Bento - Chic, Stylish, Sustainable

With a name like Bento, this clothing brand was always likely to stand out to me but that's not the only reason to love this Australian company.

These days fast fashion dominates the market, Bento aim to and manage to create timeless pieces that can be worn season after season. High quality materials are of course an essential aspect of Bento's clothing creation and every items is made within 10km of their Melbourne studio. I love clothing with a small carbon footprint!

Their AW 2011 collection includes all the pieces you'll need to create that capsule wardrobe. The collection can take you from the office to drinks with the girlies, to a date with your fella and a day out shopping. Whether you're a girl who loves skirts or you feel most at home in trousers, this collection truely has something for everyone. Not bad at all for a first collection. The style is simple elegance but above all feminine. The owner of this delightful label quit a high flying job with a bank to pursue her lifelong dream and I for one am very glad she did.
