No Frump (No Footprints!), All Fabulous

By Lisa Dutton…

Years ago before I had children, I remember saying to myself “I will never be a frumpy mom.” Fast forward about 10 years and 2 kids… and there I was, a frumpy mom.

As a busy mother of 2 little boys, I NEED to be comfortable and my clothes need to be practical… but I still want to look good. This past Christmas I hit a low point. I found myself in a big box store in my pajamas (TRUE STORY). I told myself “no more excuses, I need to start l dressing better.”

A few weeks later a pitch from the lovely Tenille… “Would you like to review some clothing from a fabulous ‘eco friendly’ clothing line called LNBF?” Heck ya I did!

Before I get into my love for this clothing, I feel I should mention the integrity behind brand itself. The LNBF brand name stands for Leave Nothing But Footprints. All clothing is made with Mother Nature in mind. The garments are ethically-produced, and organics are used as much as possible. Fabrics include bamboo, organic cotton, tencil and modal. The majority of pieces contain up to 95-96% organic material. LNBF is based in Canada, and is continually looking for ways to reduce their ecological footprint.

Now to the fun part – the fashion! I would first of all like to highlight the versatility. All of my 4 LNBF work together. The silhouettes are timeless and flattering. The Fusion Dress ($99.99) is something you can wear to run errands, pre or post workout, it also makes a great swimsuit pull-over. Made from a cozy bamboo French terry, my favourite part is the thumbholes! The hood isn’t overly practical, but no doubt a stylish feature. It comes in black, grey (see mine!) and if you like colour – a bold orchid as well!

Right now (because of our freezing cold winter) I pair my Fusion Dress with LNBF’s #1 bestselling Suri Leggings ($49.99). Made from a bamboo fabric, when I first touched these leggings my mind was blown! The softness is incredible. No question why these are bestsellers! Not only does the material feel great, it’s also breathable and thermo-regulating. The Suri Legging come in 2 different lengths (full and capri) as well as a variety of colours. They are super light and thin, but opaque (aka, your butt cheeks don’t show through).

Next to my personal fave from the collection – the versatile Baily Top ($59.99). Wear it as a pullover after workouts, or with jeans and a necklace to dress it up a bit. The best part is the boxy raglan cut. It hangs away from the body, no uncomfortable cling (this is key for me). It’s just easy. I live in my grey Baily Top to the point I am going to get the other colour option as well (a beautiful bright blue)!

LNBF covers wardrobe basics, but also offers some unique pieces that still pair easily with everything else. Check out the Rhythm Hoodie ($79.99). I get a ton of compliments on this! The relaxed drape makes for a great add to any tank, and I love the racer back. It is so flattering and unique. It looks awesome over any sleeve length, and is also transitional between a lounge piece and easy, breezy casual look.

There is no need for me wander stores in my pajamas. LNBF is just as easy to pull on, and just as comfortable! Now I can look cute.

Relax and shop LNBF online, their website is well laid out and easy to navigate. Sizing is simple! It runs XS to XXL and fits true to size (there is also a sizing guide to help). Everything I ordered fit perfect using the guide. Following @lnbfootprints on Instagram also offers a great peek at the collection!
