Greetings from Texture Clothing!
LOVE
We believe in focusing on love. With so much fear and hate in the world it’s easy to get pulled down by negativity. But love is a verb, and we believe that making the choice to actively love is the power that can help us rise above the rest. Our clothing is made from the best things to help you focus on the important things. “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
CONSTRUCTIVE CONSUMPTION
We believe in making thoughtful purchases. We don’t want to sell you something you don’t need, that won’t hold value in your life or breathe life into your wardrobe. We don’t want to contribute to the ‘fast-fashion’ consumption culture. Sometimes we want to buy something to mark a time, experience, or relationship we want to remember. Other times we use “retail therapy” to distract us from the things we don’t want to remember. Perhaps we don’t really have the money, but we put it on credit anyway. We want to encourage you to live in a deliberate way: ask yourself if this item will bring you joy. Ask yourself if you have an actual need for the item and if you can see yourself using it. Texture Clothing is about positivity, not pressuring you into anything. We produce long lasting high quality clothing that wants to be wanted! If you purchase something from us, prepare to have that item in your life for a long while! : )
POSITIVE BODY IMAGE
We believe in celebrating our bodies by treating them with respect. Are any of us perfect at this? No. Do we all have bad days along with the good? Of course. Let’s keep moving forward with loving our bodies anyways! We have so many customers who enter our space and talk about the attributes they don’t like about their bodies. We had no idea that there were women who don’t like their knees, or their shoulders! It’s really made us pay attention to how we talk about our own bodies. After hearing so many gorgeous women put down their bodies, we have different feelings about the parts of our bodies that we used to fixate on. But we are all uniquely imperfect, so let’s come together in support to celebrate that fact!
May all women who step foot in our shopping spaces or visit our website feel safe and free from judgement. May your piece of Texture Clothing add forward momentum to the quest we’re all on to wholly love and accept ourselves!

SouleMama: Welcome to sponsorship on SouleMama! Please tell us about the beginnings of your business, and how you've come to be where you are now?
Theresa: My name is Teresa Remple, founder of Texture Clothing, and I absolutely love what SouleMama is about! With so many shared values, it seemed only natural that we partner together in our mission to spread eco-conscious positivity. I began Texture Clothing in 2000 with one roll of hemp fabric and am now able to hire people in Bellingham & Seattle to work together to craft "Clothing With a Conscience" for women of all shapes. With a goal of “towards zero waste” and creating long lasting clothing for curvy women, we strive to make feel-good fashion which allows the wearer to more effortlessly shine their light throughout their community.
This weekend, Texture Clothing is generously offering the following gift to ONE lucky SouleMama reader:
ONE comfy skirt. (our best selling item by far!)
Made from a blend of hemp and organic cotton, the Comfy Skirt is a perfect transition skirt, watch it conquer the bike ride home and move straight to commandeering the dance floor. The hidden front pocket fits a passport/ID/phone and its 4-way stretch allows for cozy comfortable plane and train travel. Great for before, during, and after pregnancy as well!
To enter today's giveaway, leave a comment below (one entry per person, please). Comments will close by 9 am EST on Sunday. Winners will be chosen by Random Number Generator and announced in this post shortly after. Comment closed. The winner is...
I could live in colorful, comfy skirts like these. Appreciate the pocket.
