2016 Yoga!

The holiday season is always busy with lots of parties, busy shopping days, and time spent with friends and family.  Because of this, it can be hard to make time for exercise.  It is super important to make time to work out, so while you are enjoying the holidays, why not look forward to 2016 and ways to stay healthy.  We love yoga for so many reason, and we have lots of great yoga gear that will get you excited to hit the mat!  Whether you are buying for yourself, a friend, or a little one,  we have you covered.  We also love bringing our S'well bottle with us to stay hydrated before, during, and after a great yoga session.

Summer Jewelry Trends

Wearing jewelry is a  great way to show off your personal style and add a little extra pizazz to your outfit.  At Our Green House we are always on the hunt for unique, fair trade jewelry that will help complete any outfit.  This summer we love pieces that are versatile and can be worn with an array of outfits.  Whether you are going to the office, on vacation, or just having dinner with friends,  we have jewelry that is right on trend.

Everyone love Puravida because these vibrant bracelets have a classic laid back surfer vibe that is perfect for summer.  They are popular this time of year because they transition well from the beach to a summer wedding, and are great for every day wear.

 

If you are into a more 'hippie' look, then our Beads for Life bracelets are going to be more your style. These handmade African paper beads are vibrant yet casual so you can wear them every day and be right on trend.

If you are looking for a more classic look, then fair trade earrings from The Andean Collection are right on point.  These beautiful earrings will add a touch of class to any outfit and their simplicity will be on trend year after year.
