Description
Adults have friends, too! Just like the days on the elementary school playground, friendship bracelets are always a special gift. But these are no average friendship bracelets - they're very luxe. With diamonds and jewels galore, any grown-up will flaunt their new arm candy. (via Refinery29)

Description
Why walk or drive when you can bike? And don't worry about having to lock it up outside or take up half of your hallway at the office...the Strida bike actually folds into a compact little hideaway bicycle. A perfect option for an eco-friendly commuter - also a great gift idea for someone who has (almost) everything.

Description
Columbia Pictures has acquired rights from Scholastic Media to bring R.L. Stine’s young-adult “Goosebumps” series to the bigscreen. “Goosebumps” has never been adapted for the bigscreen, despite selling 300 million books — a young-adult feat second only to Scholastic’s “Harry Potter” series . Scholastic’s Deborah Forte is producing alongside Neal Moritz via his Sony-based Original Film banner. Studio is fast-tracking the project and is focusing on finding a writer. (via Variety)

Description
This tee is definitely a conversation piece! Luis "Pee-Wee" Fernandez, part of Better Bacon, drew this out of shape banana, inspired by the Velvet Underground CD cover. Go bananas!
Better Bacon shirts are terrific - everyone should own at least one. Not only are these the softest, best-cut T-shirts I have found in awhile, but the designers are all developmentally disabled - and totally talented. With each shirt comes a note from the artist, along with their picture and bio. Support a good cause and rock one of these rockin' tees.

Description
I'd like to introduce you to designer Tanesa Tarvin. Her awesome tees are being sold at LA's hottest boutique, Kitson! I love the Michael Jackson top - and this T-shirt is SO soft!
Tanesa is part of Better Bacon - an initiative that allows developmentally disabled people to express themselves through various creative outlets. And of course, having your fashion line in Kitson isn't a bad perk.
Each piece comes with a photo/bio and note from the designer. Tenesa drew Michael Jackson because he's her favorite singer. She knows he's been through a lot, but she hopes her designs will remind him of "how he used to be." Rock on, Tenesa.

Boo! This frighteningly awesome tee is designed by rockstar T-shirt designer Luis “Pee-Wee” Fernandez. In super-soft cotton with shiny silver metallic ghosts, this is a top any guy will turn to day after day.
Have you heard about Better Bacon? It's a community of developmentally disabled artists who have banded together to share their creations with the world. Each top comes with a photo and note from the artist him or herself - just wait til you meet Pee-Wee!
Available at LA's very hip boutique Kitson - and of course online!

Description
Sometimes we purchase things for charity out of the goodness of heart. Sometimes we are so lucky to receive a beautiful gift in exchange for our donation that will remind us of the people we helped each time we wear it. Such is the case for this long beaded necklace from Project Have Hope.
This jewelry is handmade from recycled paper by women in the Acholi Quarter in Uganda. This is a war-torn land and the community is struggling to get by. Every purchase makes a difference, so stock up on these jewels for your spring and summer wardrobe - they also make great gifts!

Maman, je t'aime. OK, so my own mother might not be fluent in French, but I adore these "Languages of Mom" necklaces. They say, "Mom, I love you" in French, Spanish, and Italian. Choose a language she speaks or one she may love - who knows, you may kickstart a new project for mom, learning the rest of the language! I also like the look of the 3 necklaces layered together, if you really want to go all-out.
