Happy International Women’s Day! Today is a phenomenal excuse to celebrate, recognise, and cheer on wonder women. So! With that in mind, here are some female-founded businesses that we think you should get to know immediately if not sooner.

Wurrumay Collective

On the hunt for an ultra luxe home fragrance, or some bath and body care products? Knew it. Check out this brilliant brand owned by proud Gomeroi woman Natasha Kaiser. The products are all created in Natasha’s family home, and boasts a delightful mix of native ingredients inspired by the land.

SIP’ER

After last few years, we could all use a solid celebration. Enter: SIP’ER, an online bottle store founded by mates Bree and Jenny. Have a squiz through their selection of her-led bevs before your next big event (or Tuesday night, your call).

Swim By Elly

Handmade sustainable swimwear (in truly adorable designs) from a clever Geelong-based ‘slow-fashion’ brand. If you want to nab one of Elly’s creations you’ll have to get in quick as there are only 100 orders being available per month in the interest of keeping Swim By Elly a small batch sustainable and ethical store. (Pssst. The next drop is on March 17th. You’re welcome.)

Haus Of Dizzy

Elevate any outfit (every outfit!) with some bright, fun, and bold jewelry from proud Wiradjuri woman Kristy Dickinson. Each piece is designed and made in the Haus Of Dizzy studio in Fitzroy, Melbourne/Naarm, and guaranteed to win you a Best Mate Medal if you can bear to part with it and nab one as a gift.

Lime And Mortar

Get organised and get creative with Perth-based brand Lime And Mortar’s excellent (and extensive!) range of stationary and stickers. There’s no more excuse to keep scribbling your to-do list on the back of an old napkin, level up your stationary game (and then take 15 shelfies to prove it.)

Hooray Brownies

You didn’t think we’d finish this list without something sugar-loaded, did you? HA. As if. Queensland-based business Hooray Brownies offers same day delivery on Brisbane orders which makes it a brilliant option if you’ve, ahem, forgotten to grab a gift for a special occasion.
