Hashish Candle

FOR THE WORKAHOLIC

Wish Come True Blind Boxes

Nothing says I’m-thinking-of-you-as-you-hammer-out-those-TPS-reports like these cheery, vaguely Asian bobble toys with soothing bell chimes. Not only do they make for great desk toys, they’re also oddly hypnotizing.

Melissa x Jean Paul Gaultier Shoes
FOR THE VEGAN FASHIONISTA

Melissa x Jean Paul Gaultier Shoes

There’s only one place in Miami to get these limited-edition stilettos, the love child of a Brazilian shoe company and a couture designer. She’ll love the non-leather-ness and comfort of the molded plastic heel; you’ll love the fact that she’s still happy after dancing on the banquettes all night.
