We love our bkr water bottles. There's nothing wrong with toting around your reusable plastic water bottle (trust us, we have plenty), there's something really special about a water bottle that's not only functional, but fun and luxurious too. Our Summer collection featured glass bkr glass bottles wrapped in soft, bright silicone covers. The pink Gloss is included in Summer Love, the sorbet orange Mimosa is included in Summer Just Because, and turquoise Dive is included in Summer Celebrate. According to bkr founders Tal and Kate: 

bkr is a statement against a disposable world, against transporting water between continents, and against the chemicals we ingest when we base our decisions on convenience. We created bkr because we were intelligent, fashion-obsessed, cultured women who were drinking out of cheap, disposable plastic water bottles… We wanted something clean, clear, effortless, luxurious and beautiful… that wasn't made of plastic or metal, didn't have a huge mouth, and didn't feel like camping equipment. Something we could become more attached to than plastic water bottles. From this the idea for our luxe little bkr was born. bkr is a statement against a disposable world, against transporting water between continents, and against the chemicals we ingest when we base our decisions on convenience.
