In recent years, the vegan movement has taken the world by storm, and it’s not just about dietary choices anymore. Veganism has expanded into various aspects of life, including fashion, beauty, and even luxury goods.

From exquisite fashion accessories to cruelty-free cosmetics and gourmet treats, this article explores a range of lavish options for those who appreciate the finer things in life while staying true to their ethical values.
Timepieces can be both elegant and cruelty-free. Consider gifting a stylish vegan watch from companies like Votch, Hurtig Lane, or Corkor. These brands offer exquisite watches made from eco-friendly materials such as Piñatex (pineapple leather) or cork, combining fashion and sustainability in one stunning accessory.
For the fashion-forward vegan in your life, consider gifting a luxurious vegan handbag from renowned brands like Stella McCartney, Matt & Nat, or JW PEI.

From classic to contemporary styles, there’s a vegan handbag to match every taste, and dozens of vegan handbag brands to explore.
This is the gift that keeps on giving. By gifting a 3-month, 6-month, or one-year subscription to one of the many vegan subscription boxes out there (such as the Vegan Cuts Snack Box or Vegan Beauty Box), you’re giving a surprise dose of happiness every single month.

Elevate your gifting game with exquisite, handcrafted vegan pottery pieces. Artisans around the world create unique ceramic works of art that are not only beautiful but also environmentally friendly. These pieces add a touch of rustic elegance to any home, making them the perfect gift for those who appreciate the beauty of sustainable craftsmanship.
For the culinary connoisseur in your life, a high-quality chef’s knife is an essential luxury.

What’s an Almond Cow? Only the hottest new kitchen appliance that makes it crazy-easy to make your own nut milk from scratch in moments! This is a perfect gift for a sustainability-advocate or anyone who wants to save money and reduce packaging waste. They can say farewell to single-use milk cartons forever!
A brand-new high-speed blender (such as a Vitamix) wrapped up with a bow sits high on this list. It’s the gift that can be used almost every day for years to come. A high-speed blender is a godsend, especially for vegans who dream of making the creamiest cashew cheese sauce and most perfectly smooth green smoothies. The price tag keeps many from investing in this themselves, but if you really want to make a friend or loved one squeal, this will do it! Unless they already have one, that is. In that case, read on, dear friend.
One of the beauties of choosing a cruelty-free lifestyle is that suddenly clothing, shoes, and jackets become a lot more affordable. With leather and wool off the table, shopping might typically take place at stores like Target because they use mostly man-made materials.
But guess what? High-end vegan pieces are out there, and the relative rarity makes them that much more special! Several companies exist that make luxury vegan outerwear that any gal or guy would cherish.
If you’re going to get your loved one a piece of jewelry, you’ll get infinite bonus points for going the extra mile and getting it from a conscious retailer. I’m talkin’ about a vegan jeweler (yes, they exist!). A great vegan jewelry shop option is Christy Robinson Design (stamped vegan jewelry) and there are lots of makers on Etsy.
Pamper your loved one with a selection of vegan beauty products that are not only cruelty-free but also luxurious. Brands like Fenty Beauty, Tarte Cosmetics, and Too Faced offer a wide range of vegan makeup and skincare items. From silky foundations to shimmering eyeshadows, these products are sure to make any beauty enthusiast smile.
A luxurious scent can make a memorable gift. Many high-end perfume brands have embraced veganism by offering fragrances that exclude animal-derived ingredients and animal testing. Brands that make exclusively vegan perfume are also growing and offer a dazzling array of perfumes that come in beautifully designed bottles. If you want to make the gift extra-special, make your own vegan perfume!
Indulge your loved ones’ taste buds with gourmet vegan chocolates from artisanal chocolatiers. Brands like Hu Chocolate, Raaka Chocolate, and Alter Eco offer a variety of delectable options, from dark chocolate bars to truffles. These vegan chocolates are crafted with care, making them the perfect gift for anyone with a sweet tooth.
Toast to special occasions with vegan-friendly wines and champagnes. Many wineries now produce wine without using animal-derived fining agents, making it easier than ever to find a bottle of exquisite vegan wine or bubbly. Brands like Frey Vineyards and Domaine Carneros offer a wide selection of vegan options that are perfect for celebrations.
We could all use more delicious home cooked meals with less effort, right? Today there are tons of vegan meal delivery services that could be a wonderful treat for someone special. Some of the services send frozen meals to your doorstep that you can simply heat and eat, while others send recipes with all the pre-measured ingredients so you can follow the instructions and make a dish at home from scratch.
The first is a great option for the busy mama who would give anything for a little more time in life, and the latter is great for the novice chef who is eager to practice home cooking (vegan-style).
One of the best gifts one can give is an experience, and travel to a vegan-friendly city is bound to be an amazing one. The memories you’ll share on a trip to a vegan metropolis like Portland, Los Angeles, New York City or Berlin will be unforgettable. Make it extra-special by making reservations at a fancy vegan restaurant and planning a surprise visit to a local animal sanctuary!
If you’re unable to plan the trip yourself, you can give your loved on a certificate to airbnb or their favorite airline so they can book it themselves.
How about a blissful vegan getaway? You can book a stay at an all-vegan resort such as The Stanford Inn By The Sea (in Northern California). Colleen Patrick-Goudreau also hosts annual vegan trips for the most adventurous among us. Others vegan retreats to look out for include: VegNews Vacations and Holistic Holiday at Sea.
A gift card makes a great gift option when you want to splurge on someone special, but don’t know exactly what they like. You can get a gift card to a vegan restaurant, a spa, or one of their favorite shops. Who doesn’t a shopping spree?
