Hello and welcome back to Leeds RAG! As our show is less than… (we can hardly contain our excitement to say) two weeks away, we thought it was only right to give you a run down of our VIP brands this year. So whether you are interested in buying a VIP goody bag, or just here for a nosey, this blog will give you all the information you need.
Our sold out show is scheduled for the 12th June and we could not be more ready. We would like to say another HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us this year- it has been a challenge... to say the least... but we are SO EXCITED to put on the best event that we can!
This year, we have VIP brands in both our goody bags and raffle prices so allow us to give you an overview of what to expect from our bags and prizes*.
*Please note: the following images are examples of the brands products, not necessarily the ones which will be part of the goody bags or prizes.
Goody Bag Prize Brands:
Our goody bag prizes have been carefully curated by our VIP team to provide our amazing followers with some beautiful and funky items as well as some tasty treats! With brands ranging from student led jewellery businesses, to the Coconut Collaborative and even Yorkshire Tea, this is an opportunity not to be missed! Click here to purchase your goody bag! Plus, at only £3.50 its a STEAL.
Strictly Bizzness
Strictly Bizzness is a sustainable, student run business created during lockdown by owner Libby. Libby's colourful chunky rings are inspired by Blob and La Manso and we cant get enough- you can never have two many chunky rings!
Divine Lime
Divine Lime is a student business that specialises in colourful and sparkly resin earrings, perfect to add a playful and exciting touch to any outfit. They describe themselves as a brand for the bold- and we are living for it.
Ethereal Rose
Ethereal Rose is a student led business that creates beautiful jewellery, ranging from beaded necklaces to charms and even stunning earrings bejewelled with raw crystals. Whatever your jewellery taste, Ethereal Rose has something for everyone.
Sacha Beee
We are crushing on Sacha Beee's beautiful bespoke jewellery and candles. Each piece is one of a kind which makes them all the more special! Oh and did we mention they are sustainable too? All pieces are handmade in the UK with second hand beads and threads. We LOVE the fact that all the pieces are available in both bright and muted colours depending on your mood, style, or outfit!
Coconut Collaborative is a sustainable company who produce delicious plant based yoghurts and desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth whilst being mindful of the environment. They are committed to helping the planet -through their partnership with the Pur Project, Coconut Collaborative plant thousands of trees across Bali in order to regenerate soil and support wildlife. So there you have it- not only do they share our love for plant based foods, they are vegan, gluten free and do their bit for the planet. What's not to love?
Urban Veda specialises in natural skincare inspired by Ayurveda- a traditional holistic healing system from India. It embraces medical science, philosophy, psychology, alchemy and spiritual understanding, combined with the principle that wellness is dependant on harmony between mind, body and spirit. We love this concept, as well as the fact that all their products are natural, vegan and cruelty free- its a yes from us!
Plant Hut UK
This one is for all our fellow plant enthusiasts out there. Plant Hut UK is (you guessed it) an online house plant store! We are obsessed with this family business hosting an impressive array of beautiful plants for your home. Ranging from a classic Monstera plant, to an exotic cactus and humble succulent, the Plant Hut UK is the place of dreams.
Mad About Doin' Zine
We are obsessed with 'Mad About Doin' Zine. This magazine provides a voice for slow fashion culture. It dedicates its space to the eco-conscious fashion world by promoting slow fashion labels and sustainable brands, in order to support and further popularise a circular fashion industry.
Raffle Prize Brands:
Not only do we have these amazing brands collaborating with our goody bags, we also have a range of prizes from amazing brands up for grabs in our raffle! Urban Veda and Sacha Bee will be featured in the raffle amongst the following brands...
We are sure that you have heard of the sustainable activewear brand Tala, who are taking the sustainability world by storm. Tala aims to disrupt fast fashion by providing fast fashion alternatives made from recycled or sustainable materials- their slogan 'It's Cool To Be Kind' embodies our brand values at LRFS and we could not be more excited to introduce them to our raffle prizes this year.
Niall Unger Illustration
Niall Unger is a graduate from Leeds University and is a designer, illustrator and muralist and we are OBSESSED with his work. His designs focus on the Leeds community an' having a good time- something we can definitely get behind! In the raffle you could be in with the chance of winning some illustrated stickers.
Butt Naked Co.
Butt Naked Co. is a student run candle making business that we are loving right now. Even better, they use eco soy wax, they are hand poured AND they are vegan. It's a need.
Chaleur Candle Co.
Another candle making student business we are obsessing over is Chaleur Candle Co. They are vegan, cruelty free and burn cleanly- what's not to love!
MoodyByJess
MoodyByJess makes hoodies for every mood. Designed by @jessclarkson_ and printed and stitched locally by @decostitch, we are loving their fab designs. Hosting a variety of colours, MoodyByJess is right up our street. Plus, you know how much we love supporting student businesses.
Rock and Rose UK
Rock and Rose UK was created by Rossy who believes in inclusivity and slow fashion. We are obsessing over her funky crochet pieces and LOVE how she makes them to size so they are perfect for everyone. These pieces will make you feel fab, funky and fierce and we are living for it.
Serenbeaded
Another stunning student ran jewellery brand featured in our raffle is Serenbeaded. Serenbeaded is based in Hyde Park and specialises in colourful necklaces- amazing to layer with other jewellery or to wear individually to brighten up an outfit.
Lit Tits
Another student ran candle business, Lit Tits, specialises in body torso candles in amazing colours and inclusive designs which we adore. This platform also raises awareness for breast cancer through also making candles with removed breasts- a portion of these profits are donated to Cancer Research UK.
