Nimli: Promoting Natural, Organic & Green Lifestyle

Have you all heard about Nimli?

Nimli is an online marketplace that provides natural, organic, and sustainable lifestyle products such as clothing, accessories, home décor, beauty products and much more from independent designers. I was completely impressed while browsing through the vast array of products Nimli offers. Their products clearly embrace style and aesthetic sense while promoting a lifestyle that cultivates a green conscious mind, body, and soul.

Here are a few of my top picks from Nimli:

*Azuri Cashmere Pashmina Shawl

I love the finely woven texture of this Pashmina Shawl- warm, soft and very elegant. The quality and durability of this Pashmina shawl is undeniable. Expertly woven with only the finest Pashmina & Silk, this Pashmina Shawl is great to use for any occasion. I own one in pink (yeah, the girly girl that I am! LOL), and I've used it day and night. This shawl/wrap/scarf is so versatile! And yes, I am packing it along with my swimsuit and sun dresses for my getaway trip to the Bahamas this weekend (can't wait!). Available in 110 colors mind you, this Pashmina Shawl is a timeless, must-have piece that you can always carry with you wherever you go! Originally listed for $150, now on sale for just $34! Now a shawl that's made with 70% Pashmina and 30% Silk, how can you go wrong at that price?

*Jill Italiano Large Bubble Pendant

Offered in recycled sterling silver, this pendant is modern and stylish. This pendant comes with matching earrings and ring. Only by Jill Italiano. Price: $75

*Scrubz All Natural Sugar Body Scrub

As the name implies, this sugar body scrub is made with natural ingredients: natural sucrose and 9 naturall oils that do wonders for the skin- it exfoliates, smooths, softens, and it smells really great! Very affordably-priced at only $8.

Nimli offers an array of ecologically friendly products that are natural, organic, recycled, sweatshop-free, and cruelty-free. Nimli was founded in New York City in 2003 by entrepreneur Rajat Arora, a vegetarian since early childhood and a keen advocate of an organic way of life free from cruelty. Conscious of the pertinence of preserving thnvironment, Rajat created Nimli with the vision, hope, and philosophy of making it possible for people to adopt a sustainable lifestyle through an extensive offering of green products and services.

Nimli is one of the most environmentally mindful retailers due to their practice and policy of requiring all their designers to ship their products directly to their customers. This results in placing a much lower carbon footprint by eliminating the unnecessary step of shipping items to a warehouse for future re-shipment. Further advancing this model and striving to become completely carbon neutral, Nimli purchases Green Tags to offset the carbon released from shipping, energy consumption and other business activities.
