Save the Dates! Friday, May 10 & Saturday, May 11

JEWELS is returning to Nomad, this time directly from Marrakech, with her latest collection of jewelry. From 3pm to 7pm on Friday evening, you will be able to shop and talk with Jewels, all while enjoying cocktails and delicious hor d’oeuvres from SOFRA BAKERY.

And do not worry, Jewels is keeping her treasure trunk open another day for those of you that cannot make it on Friday! We’ll be here at NOMAD all day Saturday between 12pm – 6pm.

See you soon!

Get out of that seasonal slump in style!

It’s been very gloomy lately, and we are thinking it’s definitely time to bring some color back into our closets. Our Spring collection can help you do just that.

Julia is calling for some sunshine with Red Engine’s cropped yellow denim pant, sparkly Melissa flats, and the Trapeze Prairie Jacket by Free People… an embroidered light-weight overcoat perfect for any Nomad.

Dip into the store and try our favorite items on this season’s palette!

… has just arrived at NOMAD!

Deb is recently back from her viaje a México, meaning it’s time for us to share a taste of her travels with you. Alongside experiencing the culture, traditions, and feminine mystique of Mexico City & Oaxaca, she handpicked quite a few gems along the way, including a wonderful selection of silver earrings inspired by the classic Mexican filigree style. These earrings are handmade by the master craftsmen of Mexico, who embrace a bright palette of semi-precious gemstones (coral, turquoise, pearl) & vintage glass.

These pieces are lightweight, maintain great movement, and are a staple ingredient to any Mexican beauty’s jewelry box. Make them a part of yours, as well!

We knew this moment was coming…

The Spring 2013 collection of ace & jig has just arrived at NOMAD, giving us all cravings for sunshine and a little bit of wanderlust.

Inspired by ethnic textiles and antique textures, ace & jig is the ideal storybook line of clothing. The collection consists of one yarn-dyed, woven fabric that forever maintains a single constant: stripes! But each piece has its own variation with its multitude of textures, reversed patterns, and pops of saturated color.

If you’re looking for a seasonless (and effortless!) addition to your wardrobe, ace & jig is the perfect medium. Simply throw on a piece with ease and let the fabric speak for itself!

Love is in the air at Nomad…

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we’re sure that many of you are making wish-lists and gift-lists to pass along to that special someone, even if that special someone is your self! So in spirit of the sparks and hearts, we thought it most appropriate to put one of our favorite jewelry designers in the spotlight! And what better way to do that than with this brilliant diamond ring?

We just received the latest pieces from Lauren Wolf, an artist who began studying jewelry in the mountains of Mexico and currently works out of her studio in Oakland, CA. Each piece is inspired by her travels around the globe, and the most recent collection exhibits her organic play on geometrics: pyramid stud earrings, stringray claw earrings with druzy agate, a rose gold heart necklace, and the featured ring, a rose-cut diamond set in an 18k rose gold band.

Dreaming of sunshine and letting out some legs?

It’s hard not to with all of these fabulous Spring pieces coming into Nomad! Our first shipment for the season from Plenty by Tracy Reese has just arrived… a collection full of silky fabrics, intricate patterns, and a touch of boho-chic.

It may be cold, but those spurts of sunshine are giving us a little Spring fever over here at Nomad! Fortunately, we recently received a cozy collection of Wooden Ships sweaters to brighten up the end of this winter season, and ease our way to warmer days. Crafted with the softest yarn, these knits are comfortable, colorful, and beautifully cut in styles that are both flattering and effortless.

Take a look at the available styles online at our Facebook, or try them on for yourself in store! You’re sure to fall in love… we did!

Tops, dresses, skirts and sweaters!

Long sleeve shirts in pastels with buttons, lace and beads.  Slinky maxi skirts.  And our favorite, of course: fun party dresses! Dark purple lace (left) and colorful embroidery and silver piping (right).

Jewels is back just in time for the holidays, and with a two-day trunk show! 

Friday, Dec. 7th and Saturday, Dec. 8th

Join us for an evening of JEWELS and her latest collection of  jewelry.  From 4pm to 8pm on Friday Dec 7th you can shop and talk with Jewels and enjoy  yummy savory mezzes and pastries from SOFRA BAKERY.  You might even want a sip of Kir to warm your spirit.

If you can’t make Friday,  come to Jewels Trunk show on Saturday, Dec. 8th from 12 pm – 6 pm.

El Día de los Muertos is just around the corner… and though November 2nd may seem far away, it’s never too early to start celebrating those important to us who have passed.

We are fortunate enough to be hosting world-renowned papier-mâché artist from Mexico City, Joel García, for the month of October! Joel began creating calaveras and alebrijes in his early youth, has mastered the traditional craft of papier-mâché over the years, and to our advantage, has introduced the art form to respectful eyes worldwide.

He created this specific Day of the Dead figurine in honor of Steve Jobs and his outstanding legacy.

Hand-painted signboards from Nepal!

Nomad loves folk art with a cause. Traditional Nepali sign painters have found themselves out of jobs due to the increasing use of digitally printed, mass-produced signs. To keep the art from extinction, the Nepal Art Dogs project aims to give these painters work. Each sign purchased will give commission to the truly fine artists of the Himalayas.

These Fair Trade signboards are hand-painted using synthetic enamel on recycled metal, making them indoor and outdoor friendly. Stop by and check out the existing signs in Nomad’s window display!
