Fair Trade Gifts You’ll Love To Give…Or Get! – Flabby Fashionista

by Lina Clémence June 9, 2025
written by Lina Clémence


Sharing is caring!

When it come to gifting this holiday season, give the gift that impacts communities across the globe. Fair trade gifts are not only fun to give, but they make a difference for people who are less fortunate. I’m a huge fan of Noonday Collection because they combine 4 of the things I’m passionate about…empowering women to become the best version of themselves, making an impact in communities without the economic advantages we have in the US, orphan care and of course, fashion! When you shop from this list, you can be assured you’re making a difference!

Fair Trade Home Decor Gifts

Peruvian Pom Wreaths

I’m more than slightly obsessed with these Peruvian Pom Wreaths. Want a holiday wreath that’s full of life and environmentally conscious? These gorgeous wreaths are handcrafted by Artisans in Peru and are bursting with life, bringing color and vibrancy to even the darkest winter nights. You can buy a Large Peruvian Pom Wreath or a Small Peruvian Pom Wreath.

Peruvian Pom Garland

My pom obsession extends to this gorgeous garland. Soft Peruvian wool poms dance along this cream colored garland for a lovely home accent, no matter the season. Grab it here.

Snowbound Ornaments

Felt materials make these gorgeous ornaments feel like plush snow globes you can hang in your home. Share the stories of Artisans in Nepal by giving them as a gift or keep them to add to your collection. We won’t tell. You can purchase them here.

Upcycled Snowflake Ornaments

With all that’s going on in Haiti right now, I love that you can make a difference by purchasing these gorgeous ornaments. Metal from oil drums and other unneeded items are given new life when these elegant ornaments are created. Each is hand-finished with a holly colored leather backing. You can purchase them here.

Festive Paper Bead Garland

I love the colors found in this gorgeous paper bead garland. Each garland represents the beauty of opportunity for the Artisans who make it. Made in Uganda, you can gift this gorgeous paper bead garland or trim your tree with this bright garland strung with vibrant paper beads. You can purchase it here.

Lovely LLama Ornament

This snuggly llama ornament makes for a whimsical addition to your tree, and a perfect gift for anyone you’d like to send some holiday cheer to. It’s made in India and can be purchased here.

Fair Trade Jewelry Gifts

Maasai Earrings

These Maasai earrings are my current favorite! I’ve even purchased a few outfits just to go with them! Each pair comes in a unique colorway made just for you…bringing Kenya’s Maasai market experience to you. These make a fun gift and will bring a smile to anyone’s face! Get them here.

Water Drop Prism Earrings

Gift a pair of earrings that can be worn every day. These have been my go-to everyday earrings for the last 4 years. They bring a pop of shimmer and shine to a casual outfit but are dressy enough for an evening out. Made in India, an eye-catching net of faceted silver beading makes a brilliant statement with each turn. You can’t go wrong with this gift! Get them here.

Dora Necklace

Give this pop of sunshine to someone in your life! Dazzling yellow tassels greet the world in this knockout piece. Sure to elevate the mood and the style of the recipient. This necklace is made in Uganda and can be purchased here.

Wild and Free Cuff

Looking for the perfect gift for your fun, fierce friend? Look no further! This Wild and Free Cuff is made in Guatemala and features a beaded leopard motif over golden buttery leather. You can purchase it here.

Wilderness Earrings

Golden buttery leather tassels in a shoulder-sweeping length make these Wilderness Earrings the perfect punchy addition to any ensemble. Black and white bead detail keeps it neutral and adds sparkle. These would make a great addition to the Wild and Free Cuff {pictured above}. You can purchase them here.

Tropica Necklace

We all have that one friend who insists on wearing black all. the. time. Gift them this Tropica Necklace which adds a pop of color to any outfit. Textural lavender and magenta suede fringe combine with brushed brass in this triple-layer style with an accompanying long brass chain. This necklace is made in India and can be purchased here.

Woven Dreams Bracelet

My twins were born in Guatemala, so anytime I purchase or wear a piece of jewelry made in Guatemala, my daughter Shayna gets excited. She knows that these purchases help women in Guatemala to earn a living wage and to keep their families intact. Guatemalan Artisans are so talented and my daughter Shayna obviously has that running through her blood. If you’ve ever seen any of her crochet creations, you know she’s an artisan in her own right. Gift this bracelet to give hope to families in Guatemala. It makes an unforgettable statement with its festival of rich hues woven together. You can purchase it here.

Other Fair Trade Accessories Gifts

Cultivate Clutch

Add a pop of color to the life of the recipient with this gorgeous clutch in hand-woven wool. Vibrant florals sit on a background of rich black, and a delightful zipper pull with multicolored pompoms completes the look. This clutch is made in Peru and can be purchased here.

Rustic Leather Tote

If you’re thinking about giving yourself a gift, this is my recommendation. It will quickly become your favorite bag! And if you decide to give this as a gift, you’ll quickly become someone’s favorite! 🙂 This luscious leather tote is the perfect accessory to house all your must-haves and features a sweet cotton print lining and convenient exterior pocket. Because of the unique vegetable tanning process our Partners use, over time the leather will transition from a light fawn to a rich caramel color. I get compliments every time I carry this bag! It’s made in India and can be purchased here.

Suede Arc Crossbody Bag

Gift this perfectly-proportioned crossbody bag in black suede. It features a black leather whipstitch detail on the front flap. A fringe tassel adds a bit of boho charm and conceals a magnetic closure to keep everything in its right place. It’s made in India and can be purchased here.

Celeste Kimono

Gift this kimono-style shawl in black, white, and accents of yellow. It will transform any outfit. The tassel detailing sets this piece apart and shows off your style. This gorgeous kimono is made in India and can be purchased here.

Postmark Jewelry Roll

Looking for the perfect gift for the avid traveler? Gift this Postmark Jewelry Roll. It will allow them house their Noonday jewels safely. This fun printed travel pouch just begs to be taken along for an adventure! It’s made in India and can be purchased here.

Ruffled Scarf

Give the gift of warmth with this soft ruffled scarf. Handwoven in Peru, this richly ruffled scarf adds comfort and style to any cold-weather look. You can purchase it here.

Fair Trade Gifts That Won’t Break The Bank

Looking for Fair Trade gifts that won’t break the bank? Here are a few of my faves…and they’re all under $35.

Drifter Makeup Bag

Gift this gorgeous makeup bag! Hand-dyed fabric loomed together into a perfect pouch to grab on the go. It’s made in Guatemala and can be purchased here.

Huipil Luggage Tags

Looking for the perfect gift for someone who travels regularly? You just found it. In the villages of Guatemala, women take great pride in stitching an array of vivid colors and motifs onto their cotton garments, called huipiles. Our Guatemalan Artisan Partners transform these traditional textiles into gorgeous luggage tags that brighten up every journey. You can purchase them here.

Treasured Textile Journal

This journal is a meaningful gift for a friend with a story to tell…or a beautiful way to record your own story. From the cotton pages within to the beautifully woven cover, this journal is a one-of-a-kind find. It’s made in India and can be purchased here.

Cow Horn Hoops

These earrings are carved from the tremendous cow horns found in Uganda. Each earring is hand-cut from a different part of the horn, making every pair truly unique. You can purchase them here.

I hope you were able to find some amazing gifts for the people you love!

Write an title about: Where’s the Love? | FabEllis

rewrite this content and keep HTML tags as is:

Sis,

Is this a safe space? I have to be honest in saying that making creative friends over the last few years has been incredibly hard for me. I hate to say that, but I believe there is power in being honest. Being a creative is such a unique experience because we have our quirks, we have our art forms we love and some of the world just does not understand what we do and why we do it. That’s why having creative friends as a creative is so key. You need people that get you and most importantly, see you. They see the beauty in what you love and why you choose to create.

Knowing the importance of having community within the creative world is why I originally built the Triad Women Bloggers Network several years ago. I know how essential it is to have a place where creatives can come together, learn and talk about our journeys with people that truly understand. Although the group is deactivated, I still know the significance of finding your creative community. That has been my personal struggle over the last few years.

In fact, it has been a pain point I have often brought up in therapy. I currently do not feel I have creative friends that I can turn to for support and that’s hard. It wasn’t always this way, but I slowly started to see a change over the last year. I’ve seen creative friends that supported me heavily online for years slowly stop their support. I understand that people have lives outside of social media and the algorithm does not always show our content, but this was different.

It went from people showing lots of support via comments and likes to simply just occasional likes yet I would see those same people commenting on mutual friends’ posts constantly. Where did the love go? It caused me to withdraw a bit last year to really take time to reflect. It still hurts somewhat because you begin to think, were these ever really my friends or were they just getting what they needed from me at the time? I may never know, but I did learn a few things about myself in the process.

I had to learn to stop over giving. I’m so big on supporting other creatives that I was often blind to the fact that that support was repeatedly one-sided. I had to learn to fall back on that. I also learned that at my core, I do have a big heart for people in general. There will never be anything wrong with that, but with that, people can take advantage. Your discernment has to be on point and you have to know not to ignore it. 

As much as I love being a creative, I’ve had a few times where being online has reminded me of high school. I was never in the in crowd in high school and I often feel the same about social media. However, I had a few close friends in high school that meant so much to me and I’m hoping that one day I will find those same creative friends today. The journey has been hard, but it’s most certainly not over. Here’s to manifesting I connect to the right people this year… 

How do you connect with other creatives? Any recommendations on where to meet fellow creatives?

God bless & stay fab,

Beauty Review: 5 Reasons I Love Conscious Coconut Oil

by Lina Clémence June 2, 2025
written by Lina Clémence


Photos by @thisjenngirl

We already know that coconut oil is life, so I’m not here to sell you on its various benefits, but I was recently gifted some Conscious Coconut Oil (AKA CoCo) and I’m loving it, y’all!

Not only is this a line of quality products that yield exceptional results, but they are rooted in charity that helps people and our planet!

Here are 5 reasons why I absolutely adore Conscious Coconut as a brand and why you should try their products ASAP!

1. They create clean, eco-friendly, quality products that work!

These products are fantastic! They’re certified organic, are cold-pressed and virgin and are made in small batches without the use of machinery. As a result of this, CoCo is never exposed to any harsh or toxic chemicals.

Yasss!! I use it as makeup remover, to help with my toddler’s eczema and on my skin and hair.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

3. Conscious Coconut empowers people with disabilities through employment opportunities.

They empower people with disabilities right here in Tampa, FL by partnering with Macdonald Training Center (MTC). MTC provides employment placement services to adults with many challenges, including hearing impairments and other physical or cognitive disabilities. MTC packages their finished coconut oil and serves as their fulfillment center to the rest of the country.

4. Every purchase made, helps feed a child.

Conscious Coconut donates a meal to a child in need via a partnership with Feeding America for every meal sold. I didn’t realize how large the number was, but nearly 16 million kids in the US go hungry everyday. 💔
It’s certified through Fair Trade USA, which ensures fair working conditions for their farmers in the southern Philippines and packaging factories in China.

5. It’s easy to travel with.

Their packaging is TSA-certified which is super-clutch since I travel often for work and pleasure. And they have sustainable packaging. You can snag some of your own here!

Have you tried Conscious Coconut oil products before? What are your thoughts?

Ciao Bellas,
