At a dinner party a few weeks ago my neighbors listed the five best products they bought in 2017. Without hesitation, they started raving about these linen sheets called Parachute. As someone who has never spent a lot of money on sheets, I was surprised at the excitement and enthusiasm that oozed out of both of my neighbors, especially as they are more the quiet, reserved types. Their love for these sheets was palpable. So much, that I spontaneously bought a set after I got home, even though they are super duper pricy. Granted, the 3 glasses of wine might have had something to do with it.
A few days later the sheets arrived. The moment of truth was here! And the verdict: They are F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C. They feel a tiny bit rough, but in a good way. I admit, I am excited to go to bed because of my sheets. And, yes, I do sound like a bored suburban housewife by talking about how much I love my sheets. BUT I REALLY DO!
I admit though, I can’t get over how much I paid for them. They better last a loooooong time! Also, yes, adulting hard!
YES! We have a deep navy one – LOVE it!

Yeah, they are a “little bit” pricy…
Da du aus der Schweiz bist und der deutschen Sprache sicher mächtig, sei dir hiermit das Portal Urbanara ans Herz gelegt.
Dort wurde bis vorletztes Jahr Flannellbettwäsche aus ägyptischer Bio-Baumwolle angeboten, ebenfalls wie im Fall von Parachute in Portugal gefertigt. Allerding angeboten zu weniger als der Hälfte des Parachute Preises. Die aktuelle Flanellbettwäsche ist sogar noch günstiger und auch über Strecken aus Bio-Baumwolle gefertigt.
Als modebewußter und technikaffiner Mann, schwöre ich dir, dass diese Bettwäsche die sinnvollste Investition in irgendeine Textilie (Klamotten eingeschlossen) war, die ich in den letzten Jahren getätigt habe. Try it :-)
