Hope you love these as much as we do!!

We are pleased to finally have some new womens prints and beautiful fresh colourways in our Womens Tees! Chilli Red, Pacific Green & classic Black with complementary prints in teal, mulberry, bronze and white…
Check out our new hand drawn Aroha Heart which is finer and full of movement. Our neckprint which is slowly catching on has been handprinted in an array of colours… just to confuse you (and because I love colour and could not choose myself!).
We have printed the neckprint on a childrens short sleeve hooded sweatshirt in a ataahua teal print on pacific green which my daughter is adoring right now…. I hope you enjoy this newness!

The first of our new womens prints… we love the chilli red colour tees too! This spiral print is off to the left side on tee, nice and clean print that allows this tee to be dressed up or down. Still a beautiful, flattering cut organic tee with scoop neckline and shaped in at the waist but please note that this time our new tees are a small fit (sorry!)…. so please order up a size. Available in Chilli Red with a mulberry print or Black tee with a teal print. Watch this space for our pacific green womens tees too!

Not only does our rendition of the tiki look good, it doubles as a simple bilingual learning tool for colours in te reo maori. Each colour is printed with its corresponding english word around along the sides of the tiki print. One of our Rata & Ruby goals is to spread an understanding and appreciation of te ao maori – the maori world (language, art, sayings, beliefs) in a contemporary way… and with aroha!
We have these fresh green and toasty warm kids hoodies on SALE at the moment for $39 each … to help spread the warmth and love. It looks great on tama – boys and wahine – girls too!

Certified Organic Cotton and using non-toxic dyeing is only the start of our approach to being a Sustainable Business. In nearly all our business decisions we consider how we can make the least impact on the environment and be socially responsible. From Sea Freight (uses less carbons than air) to recycling materials and packaging to donating rata&ruby clothing to those in need and charity fundraisers …we try to make a difference!  Make informed decisions and consider where and how and who your products have come from, its worth supporting businesses with integrity and who care.

My favourite season – summer, sunshine, sunsets, swimming and warmth! As much as we love the ocean,  fresh water is ataahua… enjoying the Waioweka gorge on our gisborne roadtrip.

I love the feeling of summer holdiays approaching and getting together with whanau and friends over christmas. We hope that you all have a happy festive season and wish you much love, luck and happiness for 2010. Enjoy the sunshine and summer holidays … nothing beats jandels, fish n chips and beach days – here in Raglan it means bombs off the walk bridge and family surf sessions. Lots of music festivals and live music on over summer show casing the best of NZ music too!… Get Beached! x

With summer on the way there is a new wave of great NZ albums being released and playing live… fat freddies, maisey riki, black seeds, fly my pretties Yah! Cant start them too young – I love NZ music tee in pacfic green $36.
