WHY I LOVE THEM
Libby is so passionate about this beautiful eco-friendly brand. We have wanted to work together for so long but it seems that every time we tried to make the move something stood in our way. Finally our stars have aligned!
The Cocoon range is made from beautiful cottons. A textile I love. I appreciate Libby's respect for South Africa and the need to support our people, and the fact that she sources her cotton locally despite the many challenges our textile industry faces inspires me.
This brand makes small, but bold, steps towards developing a range that is made to last, is versatile and is of course beautiful!
I am so excited to watch them grow.

MAKE UP BAG
R180
ON MY WISHLIST
white
Intended to be a make up pouch, however, I'm certainly not one to follow rules. I see this cute little bag and my mind buzzes with a multitude of uses for it.
Libby uses hers as a baby clutch to hold her bank card, phone and keys.
I can totally see the upside to this. Perfect for those beach days or activities where you just know that you won't be needing all that extra stuff you lug around in your day-to-day handbag.
These super handy pouches are made of 100% recycled plastic offcuts from bigger bags made by COCOON. (WATERPROOF!!) Using those offcuts avoids waste ending up on landfills.
Available in black and white recycled plastic.

THE HARRIET BAG
R499
ON MY WISHLIST
The Harriet bag is made from 100% recycled plastic with adjustable straps that are made from local 100% cotton webbing. It has a handy open front pocket and a main section with zip closure.
This throw-on-and-go bag is the perfect companion when you're on the move and needing your hands to be free. It is just the right size to hold the essentials needed when popping to the shops, travelling through an airport or going for a walk around the neighbourhood. It is fuss-free, convenient and waterproof.
Originally designed for Libby's mom to use when taking her dog, Harriet, on walks. This bag is now a special product that Libby has made to sell to the public.
It is available in black and white.
