{outfit} The Python Pashmina

Last week I received this gorgeous scarf from Noma.  Noma sells eco-friendly, fair trade, hand-made pieces hand-dyed in Los Angeles, NOMA is a women-owned and operated collective that lets women feel beautiful—inside and out.  I love supporting fair trade companies, so I was very excited for this collaboration.

NOMA’s philosophy is simple: every woman is beautiful and deserves to shine. This principle guides NOMA’s designs, which celebrate individuality and personal style. NOMA’s simple, yet striking, creations illuminate the beauty from within. We work with skilled artisans around the world, supporting and promoting fair trade in all of our endeavors; we honor and embrace our global community of vision, talent, creativity and passion.

NOMA embraces a ”giving back” philosophy to support indigenous hand crafts and to promote sales by allowing consumers to feel the joy of knowing their purchase is paying it forward. We have been to many places over the past year, and have seen first-hand what is most desperately needed by artisans working in small communities; that's why we've chosen to work with the 'Gift of Light' project to help artisans live and work better with electric light at their fingertips.

I chose the Copper Python Premium Quality Pashmina because I loved the coloring and subtle snakeskin print.   The quality of the scarf is amazing, it is soft to the touch and you can tell a lot of care went into the making of the piece.

To share the love, Noma have provided a coupon code for you to save 75% off a scarf order! To use it, go to the checkout and fill out the information in step 1, then in step 2 enter the code CLOSET75 to see the change reflected in your total. (So basically, you are getting a $125-$198 scarf for $32-$50, how can you miss that deal?)
