They’re always catching a flight to a new place and posting wanderlust-worthy photos on Instagram. You love hearing about their latest adventures and they always give the best travel advice - whether you’re heading on an overnight work trip or a three-month honeymoon - your friend has you covered. So, what should you give your globe-trotting friend? The gift of never being too cold or too warm on those pesky long flights. The Josephine scarf is a perfectly cozy scarf that instantly turns into a blanket, beach wrap, shawl, and more! We’re certain that this will land a top spot on their travel essentials list.
Work. Meetings. School. Events. Having only 24 hours in a day doesn’t seem to faze them. They’re constantly moving and somehow keeping it all together, which leaves you feeling both baffled and honored to have them as a friend. Designed in partnership with Sandstorm, Kenya’s premier luxury bag designer, the Sandstorm x RefuSHE tote bag helps them stay organized and stylish on-the-go. Featuring a spacious inner pocket, a zipper closure for safekeeping, and bold fabric designed by RefuSHE artisans the tote is perfect for day or night.
They look effortlessly chic in whatever they wear and they have the best eye for up-and-coming looks. You turn to them during the inevitable outfit rut before a big event, or when you’re in the mood for a shopping spree. The square Nafisa scarf is a perfect addition to their already-fabulous wardrobe. Carefully dyed using an age-old Japanese dying technique, each Nafisa scarf holds a story as unique as each stich. They won’t find the same scarf on anyone else.
Your go-to friend/date for social events, they love meeting new people and being in the spotlight. Even the most potentially awkward of social situations are easily smoothed over with their cool wit and calm demeanor. The odds that they’re a Leo are high. Paired with a bold statement piece, like the Hamdi necklace from RefuSHE’s collaboration with Chicago designer Lagi Nadeau, they’re an unstoppable force and the talk of the party. Give them a gift as unique as them and with a story of empowerment to share.
More worried about sleep schedules than style, the new mom doesn’t have time to think about color coordination. She wants ease and comfort so she can focus on enjoying brunch and time with friends when she is able to get away. Luckily, the Takuma Kaleidoscope goes with anything. She can wrap herself AND her child in this beautiful scarf, knowing that it not only was made by young mothers, but also helps support their families too. Did we mention our scarves are machine washable?
Subtle, with a creative side. This guy is always down for the next adventure, whether it’s around the block or the world. His style is never overdone, but he’s not afraid of a new bold pattern. The RefuSHE x Angelo Igitego Collections bow tie featuring fabric made by RefuSHE artisans is ideal for his next cocktail or black-tie event. The bow tie will hint at his fun side even when he is decked out in his clean-pressed suit. It’s the gentleman’s way of showing support for refugee women and children.
What better way to show off your commitment to supporting young refugee women and children than a RefuSHE logo T-shirt? With unisex and women’s sizes, you can find the perfect new shirt for your favorite RefuSHE advocate, while also supporting our holistic trauma-informed programming.
They love the great outdoors and spend their time on week-long camping trips. Their love of Mother Nature spans from a thriving garden in their cozy home to daredevil climbing feats. It seems they were put on this earth to stay in touch with it. The Takuma Emerald & Amber scarf bring their love of nature’s beauty to their closet. With earthly tones of amber brown and forest green on the softest fabric, it’s the perfect accessory for any nature lover’s collection.
They’re more reserved than most, but you admire their unparalleled eloquence. Well-read and well-rounded, the bookworm is constantly learning, asking questions, and beginning new chapters. The Zahara Charcoal Shadow scarf captures the essence of a blank page yearning for its beloved ink to decorate it with meaning and purpose. Give them their next favorite story with a twist – to wear!
They live for a good dinner party, SuperBowl gathering, or wine night. Somehow their bar cart is always impeccable and you’re not sure how their couch stays so fluffy. You ask yourself, “what would they do?” when you host family and friends for the holidays. They are the ultimate host/hostess goal. This season give them a gift that will liven up their kitchen with a splash of color and will also provide care for young refugee women in East Africa. It’s a win-win and a great conversation starter at their next party.
