(Thug Kitchen - $14.61 on Amazon)
(Harveys Seatbelt Bag/Storm-Chestnut Black Label Briefcase - $168)
I seem to always be on the hunt for a lovely, solid, Vegan bag. I love that this one zips to protect your computer, papers, etc... from the harsh winter elements. Harveys is also a great company that feels good to support. It was started by a husband/wife team making quality bags out of recycled seatbelts. My Haveys bag is my most complimented bag of all time.
(Ahnu Women's Karma Mesh Ballet Flat - $69.98)
Cute, Vegan "work shoes" can be very difficult to find. Personally I like accessories with a little quirk. These Vegan ballet flats fit the bill perfectly!
(Dr. Bronner's Magic "All-One" Organic Lip Balm - $2.99)
This lovely little balm would make a great hostess gift or stocking stuffer. It works fantastic keeping your lips smooth for hours, even after indulging in some holiday nosh. I like the "naked" best, but if you're more into flavors they have plenty to choose from.
(Animal Holiday Gift Tags from sanaeishida.com - FREE!)
I found these adorable gift tags on Pinterest and plan on using them this Christmas for my friends and family gifts.
(Raw Vegan Fudge - Recipe from "The Culinary Life")
This was another Pinterest find. I typically do some baking and this is my first holiday as a Vegan. So, I was looking for some Vegan subs to my favorite foodie gifts. I'm looking forward to giving this recipe a try.
(Cool Photos That YOU Take - Free/$$$)
I came up with the idea of taking black and white photos of some of my (now grown) son's favorite toys, then turning them into a collage for him. Photos make wonderful, personal gifts that you can really tailor to your recipient. Personally I like Shutterfly for my printing. They have good coupons and sales and save you the hastle of dealing with the post office during the holidays.
