Helpsy is an ecommerce boutique that lets shoppers find amazing clothes and unique designs they can feel good about buying.
Here’s what to know about Helpsy and their mission from their own mouths:
“If crunchy lifestyles and yoga pants come to mind when you think of ethical fashion, you’re not alone. Helpsy’s goal is to change this misconception and to curate apparel and products that are as beautiful, exciting and design-forward as they are ethical. Helpsy was founded on the belief that design-forward, cutting-edge fashion can have a positive social impact 100 % of the time. What is ethical fashion? Can fashion even be ethical? (Of course we believe it can). These are difficult questions that deserve thoughtful answers. Buying ethically is not just a matter of buying recycled bamboo yoga pants because let’s face it, bamboo yoga pants don’t fit every moment, taste or lifestyle: There are many other ways to shop ethically. Through our editorial arm at Helpsy we hope to answer some of these questions and to promote discussion. Through our marketplace we hope to guide people to make more ethical purchasing decisions with no sacrifice in beauty or style. Based on our definition at Helpsy, a product is ethical if it has four or more of the following qualities: non-disposable and well-made, eco-friendly materials, eco-friendly design technics, fair trade/wage, handmade, profits to philanthropy, recycled, cruelty-free, local production, local material sourcing, upcycled, vintage or secondhand, made in small quantities.”
When you shop Helpsy you’re going to find an amazing array of beautifully crafted and diverse items. Some of our favorites available right now include:
AOKO SU TOPAZ CUFF – HANDMADE IN THE USA, BRONZE AND TOPAZ BRACELET: This cuff is truly a standout featuring a bronze pronged setting and a natural Pakistani topaz gem. The gem in its natural form gives this bracelet a true sense of distinction and character.
TITANIA INGLIS SOLID HELIX DRESS / CUPRO TWILL T-SHIRT DRESS: This is one of those amazing pieces that can easily be dressed up or down. It features a bias t-shirt dress silhouette and a u-shaped neckline. You can reverse it if you want a more elegant high-neck look or wear it traditionally for a more casual look. It’s created from Japanese washed eco-friendly cupro twill and it’s very body hugging and flattering.
PIMA DOLL HAND KNIT CREW: This handmade sweater has the potential to become a staple of any wardrobe because of its timeless style and quality construction. It features a crew neck with open-knit stitches and it was made in Peru of pure pima cotton.
ARKINS FAUX LEATHER RACERBACK TANK / BLACK VEGAN TANK MADE IN NYC: This cropped faux leather tank can be worn in so many ways. Pair it with skinny pants, a skater skirt or even shorts for a look that’s fresh, cool and urban. It was made in NYC’s Garment District from Renewable Resources, providing a great vegan and cruelty-free alternative to traditional leather.
