This holiday season, you might want to consider giving sustainable gifts. In an effort to save mother earth, many fashion, beauty and lifestyle brands have taken a vow to produce ethical and conscious-minded products that aren’t only as harmful to the environment, but are also sure to get your giftees all the compliments. This season we’re eyeing everything from comfy wear-anywhere pieces to practical travel mugs to essential recycled-leather sneakers.
Whether you’re shopping for your loved ones (or yourself), scroll through the gallery for some sustainable gift ideas!
