Women's Gift Guide 2016 - Vegan Friendly + Giveaway!

There's less than one month left until Christmas and if you're still out there looking for a gift for that vegan gal in your life then look no further! Today I'm sharing 5 vegan friendly gifts ideas including a unique watch, some delicious chocolate that goes to a good cause, and a few other fun things to give that special person in your life. I do enjoy going to the mall during the holidays but I think it's more about the experience than the actual gift buying. Shopping in stores can be stressful and a waste of time during the holiday rush. That's why I like to order my gifts online and have them sent straight to my door. Then I can go out and experience a stress free experience at the mall during all of the festivities. To help you do the same I've put together a list of some of my favorite things to gift this holiday season.

JORD Frankie Series Watch

I received a beautiful Zebrawood and Champagne watch from JORD Watches this past week. Upon opening the package I immediately fell in love with the simplistic and sophisticated nature of the wooden watch. It comes safely set inside of a gorgeous finished wooden box that has quickly became the home of my watch whenever it's not on my wrist.


 In a society filled with a deeply rooted attachment to our cell phones this watch becomes a great accessory to step away from your phone and get lost in your life but not lose track of time. 
JORD offers a variety of watch styles and wood finishes to make sure that you're gifting the right watch to fit the unique style of that special person in your life. This is one of my favorite gift ideas because it is something that will last for years to come. Oftentimes we buy things for each other just to buy them and the gifts become easily disposable without meaning attached to them. Gifting a one of a kind wooden watch is a way to give the gift of sustainably and value that will last for years to come after the holiday season. But before you order, head down to the bottom of this post and enter into the JORD giveaway!

Patagonia Re-Tool Snap-T

If you're living in an area of winter wonderland like me then gifting this Patagonia pull over will be greatly appreciated, guaranteed. Warm, soft, high quality, and environmentally friendly. There's not much more that you could ask for in a clothing item. Patagonia is an environmentalist clothing company that is active in creating a better future in hopes to protect and preserve the environment. 

Rescue Chocolate

Okay, I haven't had a chance to try this out yet. But I'm very much into supporting this company and will be trying it soon. All vegan, fair trade, and organic chocolate that gives proceeds to animal rescue charities. How. Awesome. Their site has a wide variety of chocolate flavors to choose from making this gift the perfect stocking stuffer for that animal lover in your life.

Pacifica Fragrance Set

You can't go wrong with gifting a fragrance set from Pacifica. I promise. I have a variety of their products and they are all amazing and yield delicious smelling results. The Malibu Lemon Blossom is one of my favorites but whatever one you decide upon won't leave you disappointed. 

Pura Botanica Candles

I love receiving candles for any occasion. A candle gift is always a good gift to me. This chai candle by Pura Botanica, an all natural and ethical bath and body company, would be the perfect addition to any of the gifts above. When gifting I always seem to compliment my gifts with a candle. It just seems right. And when the company that you're supporting when buying the candle believes in the same things that you do, then all is right with the world.


I hope that this helps you find a gift that you've been searching for so that you can cross off one more thing on that holiday to-do list. And before you dash off to order a gift or head to the mall grab a green smoothie and enter this giveaway hosted by JORD. The winner gets a $75 e-gift code and anyone else who enters automatically gets a $20 e-gift code. Happy gifting and good luck!
