‘Tis the Season to #ShopVegan, Falalalala …

Published by Christina Sewell.

The Halloween craze is over (thank goodness), the heat is perpetually cranked up in your apartment, and you’re pretty sure that was the last bit of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas” you just caught on the radio. This can mean only one thing: It’s time to start your holiday shopping. Groan. It can be stressful out there, we know. So to get those inspirational juices flowing, we’re giving you our top gift picks for your BFF or girlfriend this season.

Oh, and the best part? Several of the brands featured below have offered rocking discounts for PETA supporters from 12 a.m. on Black Friday (November 28) through 11:59 p.m. on Cyber Monday (December 1). Product descriptions below that are preceded by an asterisk (*) mark the companies that have created discount codes just for you!

To keep her cozy all winter long:

'Tis the Season to #ShopVegan: Women's Winter Wear
  1. The North Face’s new ThermoBall™ jackets are composed of a tightly woven synthetic fabric that allows for insulation even when it’s wet, and it traps heat within small air pockets to ensure that its wearer stays toasty even when temperatures dip to unbearable lows. This exciting new technology is poised to replace down—which is often live-plucked from the sensitive skin of ducks and geese—in the coming years.
  2. The Tree Kisser’s “Make the World Better” Crop Sweatshirt is a cotton, polyester, and rayon blend that reminds everyone who sees it that we all have the power to make a difference each and every day.
  3. Cornelia Guest teamed up with Project Gravitas to create the Lyle moto jacket—the ultimate mix of style and compassion. This svelte vegan leather jacket is at once edgy and timeless, bound to give any outfit that extra “pop.”
  4. Nothing is more perfect for cuddling up in front of the fire or breaking a sweat at the gym than a classic Logo Sweater from Bruce Heart. Rylee Maver and Elle Howard, the founders of this compassionate company, have pledged to donate $2 from the sale of every sweater to the Broken Hearts Ministry, an organization dedicated to assisting the homeless people of Los Angeles.
  5. Forget the ugly Christmas sweater. It’s not a holiday party without the stark contrasts of Topshop’s 100 percent polyester Colour-Block Knit by Boutique.
  6. We really can’t get enough of Zara’s Two-Tone Poncho. This fuzzy vegan wool is an acrylic-polyester blend that oozes carefree sophistication. The sheep agree!

To keep the rest of her selfie-ready:
