It's that time again . . . time to stress out about what to get your friends and family this holiday! To make things a bit easier for all of us, I've made a list of some awesome gifts that also happen to be cruelty free — yes, that coat above is faux. Whether you're shopping for your vegan friend or you're an animal-conscious buyer, these gifts are sure to make everyone on your list thankful and happy.
Jill Milan's beautiful clutches and handbags of faux leather and faux skins are all made in Italy. These are not exactly cheap, but they sure look posh and elegant. They are perfect to prove to the fashionista on your list that chic could be cruelty free.
Whether you splurge for the top of the line juicer or the more affordable one, this is great product for anyone who wants to be healthy. I love how easy it is to make nutritious juices everyday.

Stella McCartney's collection is all vegan, high end, and super chic. The items might be pricey, but they are worth the investment.
