How many of us have been looking for some retro baby clothes or retro children clothes for a long time? Some of us are just romantic and remember the 60s style as one of the most gorgeous styles from the last century. We remember the flower curtains from our grandparents and the warm carpet colours from the movies and really want to have some of it at home.  Our clothes and our clothing style is something that defines us and our personalities. Our children are part of our design for the future and the way the dress reflects a lot the way we dress ourselves and the way we see the world. If ..read more

On July 4, 2006, I became the mother of our first daughter, Alberte. I studied at Aarhus School of Architecture where I was trained in thinking from whole to detail. Each semester, I was challenged to study and test new theories, materials, and structures. Alba Of Denmark was born when Alberte was born. She became my next semester where new techniques I had never tried before had to be tried out. I was completely in love with Crawlers or overalls. I thought Alberte was the cutest baby in my mother's home-knitted, striped Crawlers/overalls. I had a brand new sewing machine from Netto, and I bo ..read more

Once upon a time, Majken, the owner of AlbaofDenmark, had a dream: she wanted to create a sustainable fashion brand with retro designs for kids all around the world.  She dreamed of her own childhood in flower power blouses and bell pants, with vintage colours and motifs and started creating clothes inspired by her own children in Denmark. It is well known that Danish fashion brands are famous around the world, due to quality, sustainability, style and the most gorgeous designs. Scandinavian children clothes in general are very popular and in the case of AlbaofDenmark, the clothes ar ..read more

MAY 4. 2022 | BY TONI LOUISE CAMPBELL LET’S TALK SUSTAINABLE CLOTHING BRANDS FOR CHILDREN! Sustainable clothes: The world right now needs us to be much more mindful and conscious of our consumer decisions. For me, sustainability refers to an environmental and ethical standard and a few Danish clothing brands have been on top of creating sustainable fashion. Essentially, sustainability means acknowledging that the world’s resources are finite. However sustainability means more than ‘saving the planet’, it also suggests human life can flourish too but only if we strike a balance, also in D ..read more

OCT 28, 2021 | BY IRENE CROFT How to make lunch boxes sustainable? Being the owner of a gundog and two boys aged 8 and 5.5, all with energy levels that can be described as ‘intense’ means our weekends are rarely spent in the house slobbing around in our pyjamas (how I miss those days…). Being packed lunch-savvy is also a must, unless you are ok with spending the equivalent of a month’s mortgage on pre-packed sandwiches that the kids will refuse to eat anyway when out and about. The key to a good lunch box is convenience, which, incidentally, also happens to be intrinsically pretty sus ..read more

5 SEP | BY JAYNE OLIVER Can a big family be sustainable? It may be unusual in this day and age to break through the 2.4 children barrier but we are proud members a club dwindling in numbers - the large family club. My name is Jayne and I hav ve children ranging in age from 4 to 16. For the most part this creates a wonderful atmosphere at home and a tremendous environment for the kids to grow up in. There is almost never a quiet moment and – despite sometimes wishing for such an occurrence – it is strange when the house breaks into silence. What can you expect here: 1. Recycling - teach ..read more

Being a mum of four has made me think a lot about how to be more sustainable in cooking, not just for the environment but for the wallet too! However, I’m aware that sustainable living blogs can often feel a bit preachy so I want to say, before I start, that my kids, husband and still I eat too many crisps, love a treat meal like Mac Donald’s or pizza takeaway, and my child Oscar can’t live without pre-packed processed meats like ham and salami. So please read on keeping thi ..read more
