Legna

My inability to motivate myself out of bed this morning had nothing to do with the sinus infection I’ve been battling for the last week, the presence of some Adonis-like character (or any man, for that matter) there with me or even just pure and utter exhaustion; it had everything to do with my brand new set of Legna linens. My interest was initially piqued with the line because of the use of Lyocell — a cellulose fibre derived from wood pulp, noted for its sustainable and green qualities — but I was absolutely blown away after feeling the sheets and chancing upon such thoughtful details as subtly embroidered buttons at the pillowcase closures. Generally, I’m a die-hard high-TC cotton linen person, but now that I’ve discovered the buttery, silky goodness of Legna, I doubt I’ll go back. Same thing goes for the towels, which along with being oversized enough to fit almost two people (not that you’d want to, though), are super-absorbant, ultra fluffy and feature gorgeous rounded corners, which lends fantastic draping qualities and look just as good hanging off the back of your bathroom door as they do covering up your nakedness. SDH offers a myriad of other lines, including several for babies and children, and judging by the quality and workmanship of Legna alone, they’re definitely worth checking out. you can find a store locator on their site here, and my fellow NYCers can peep SDH’s goods at Gracious Home and ACB Carpet and Home. Who’d’ve thought such luxury could come from something as humble as wood pulp?
