Winter is far from my favorite season; the cold, the snow, the slippery roads- you can keep it. The only good think I can think of about winter is the adorable clothes that you get to wear. There really is nothing like a warm, snuggely sweater on a chilly day, or cuddling up on the couch in something soft and toasty when the weather outside is frightening.
If you are looking to spruce up your wardrobe this season, make sure you head to prAna. This is a pretty cool company, and they make some really cool clothes. (Soft, too!) Prana is Sanskrit for breath, life and vitality of the spirit. As you might have imagined, the company began by selling clothing for yoga and a meditative lifestyle. They now sell clothing that works well in all the parts of your busy life.
They are a conscious company as well, taking steps to be aware and mindful of the environment and people. They use fewer toxins and chemicals when manufacturing, and work to use as little energy, water and chemicals as possible. They avoid using processes that can cause harm to people or the environment, and create their clothing with organic cotton, natural fibers and recycled materials. Additionally, prAna helped pioneer Fair Trade Certified apparel and became the first major company in North America to produce and market Fair-Trade Certified styles. How cool is that?
