Fair trade jewelry is a great way to add some flair to your wardrobe year round. But if you’re needing a little fresh start this January, it’s especially perfect! I like New Year’s resolutions, but sometimes catch myself feeling guilty if the’re … well … less than noble. Read War and Peace or learn French? Sounds nice, but I’ll pass—I’m just going to add a little color to my wardrobe, thank you very much.
If you’re in that boat too, know that you can spruce up your outfits and make a true difference in others’ lives at the same time when you order fair trade jewelry. See, you CAN have the best of both worlds! 
Some of my fave fair trade accessories this winter:
1. Soft Gray Tagua Chip Earrings
2. Pita Pat Necklace with 14 14 Karat Gold
3. 31BITS Guava Twist Bracelet
5. Sunset Orange Sofia Tagua Earrings
These pieces come from all over the world, including Rwanda, Ecuador, and Uganda. Each purchase truly impacts lives in more ways than you can imagine. By buying fair trade jewelry, you empower artisans and help give them a means to sustainable income. They can then afford childcare, food, clothing, and shelter. Perhaps most importantly, your support helps to send their children to school, which helps iradicate the cycle of poverty for lasting change in their communities. Resolve to watch your dollars make a difference this year. And personally, I’m resolving to take a page from the fashion book of some of our artisans—these women know style!
