I love giving gifts that are meaningful, and especially love supporting small business’ and brands that are mission based or giveback in some way. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Target just like the rest of you, but for gift giving and larger purchases I really like supporting companies making better choices for people, profit and planet. I wanted to put together a gift guide for 2018 featuring some of my favorite "do-it-better" brands!
This is one of my FAVORITE BRANDS! Their products are so high quality, and I love that they are mission based. From their website…
"ABLE is a lifestyle brand focused
on ending generational poverty through providing
economic opportunity for women."

Here are some of my personal favorites …
I have the larger version of this backpack in Cognac and I LOVE IT! I use it for my every day purse, and the quality is SO good. Buttery soft leather that keeps its shape. I love this little mini version, and I put the black on my personal wish list!
This denim jacket is perfection! One of my friends owns this and it looks so good with everything! It’s the perfect amount of distressing and its not too boxy and not too fitted. SO good!
Able also has gorgeous, modern jewelry. I have these earrings and LOVE them, they go with everything and I am all about the geometric shape.
Noonday has been a favorite of mine for years and years.
I have SO many of their pieces and always get compliments on them.
Their mission from their website is:
"To make a difference in some of the world’s most vulnerable communities, we partner with Artisan Businesses that share our passion for building a flourishing world. We develop these businesses through fair trade, empowering them to grow sustainably and to create dignified jobs for people who need them."
My friend Malinda Nichols is amazing and her website is:
Here are my top picks this year from Noonday.
Everyone needs a dainty cross necklace and I love the length and sidways orienation of this one. Perfect gift!
Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE a statement earring and I also love mustard tones this season too.
These earrings are so fun and could add a little spunk to any outfit.
Another brand that I just learned about this year is SSeko Designs.
Their mission on their website is:
"Sseko Designs uses fashion to create opportunity for women globally.
We provide employment and scholarship opportunities to women in Uganda who are working to
pursue their dreams and overcome poverty."
My fellow(consultant) is Laura Mccarley, and she is SO super helpful! Her website is
What made me fall in love with Sseko was seeing this bracelet on my friend….I AM IN LOVE WITH IT!
Every girl need a wonder woman bracelet….am I right?
Sseko is having a sitewide sale of 25% off through cyber monday as well!
I LOOOVE this tote, because it converts into a backpack…..can you tell I love a backpack?
I just think they are perfect as a mom when you need all the hands you can get!
It is roomy enough for a carry on, but small enough for an every day purse.
Last but not least, ha! Beautycounter is a B corp, spreading education and awareness around safer products.
They have an entire leg of their company devoted to advocacy work in Washington and through local governments, working tirelessly on getting more health protective laws passed in the United States and Canada.
