I walked into the giant H&M store in San Francisco this past weekend, and literally squealed with delight when I laid eyes upon their fall "All for Children" collection, a collaboration with Unicef. The collection features some of the cutest illustrated graphics, applique pieces, and vintage inspired textiles that I've ever seen in a children's line. I wanted to buy, literally, every piece in the collection. What's better is that everything is ultra-affordable, and the proceeds go to a great cause.
Would it be creepy to just buy one of everything, with the assumption that one day, I'll have kids to wear them?
From the H&M website: "25% of the sales price from the ALL THE CHILDREN collection will be donated to protect children's rights in Bangladesh, which will help provide access to schools. We believe that children who learn how to read and write are better equipped to make informed choices about their future."
What a great idea! It's nice to see big companies doing something like this. People tend to forget the children and it's they who suffer. Thank you so much for posting this! I will have to check out H&M!
