1. Domain by Laura Hodges Studio
Home Decor
From wooden coasters to throw pillows to nesting baskets, Laura’s incredible eye for detail will help your home feel not only comfy but chic.

Zoe Doll
Healthy Roots is a toy company that celebrates diversity and is designed to empower young girls to love their hair. By facilitating an educational play experience with curl care, these dolls help build confidence and esteem, one wash day at a time.
5. JAM + RICO
Afro-Carribean Inspired Jewelry
Incorporating the founder’s background of Jamaican and Puerto Rican descent, the line feels fun and jubilant. Get your favorite travel buddy prepared for her next trip to a beach post-COVID with a pair of fun tassel earrings.
6. Tiffany Baker
Art
Give the gift of art to one of your friends looking to level up. We’re not interested in Birkins; we’re investing in art. Black Art.
7. McBride Sisters
Black Girl Magic Bundle
A sister-owned wine company — with such a unique backstory! One can never go wrong with wine. Well, almost never. The wine bundle is a great way to offer your friends a variety of flavors.
8. Bryant Terry
Vegetable Kingdom : The Abundant World of Vegan Cooking
What terrifies Black people about vegan food is the potential lack of flavor. I get it. Bryant Terry’s afro-caribe inspired recipes have ALL of the flavor and without any of the animal products. This cookbook is a great way to get someone (or keep them) excited about veganism, which can often feel limiting to newbies.
9. Savoire Faire
Unisex Fragrance
One of the most popular fragrances on the line, Soul Cafe, has notes of tobacco, oud, lavender, patchouli, and firewood. The scent has also been described as passionate and sensual. Oh boy. Grab this gift for the person that enjoys making an olfactory entrance.
10. SUPERVSN
Hoodies and Tees
Unique tees and hoodies for the effortlessly cool. This particular crewneck has B.C.E (black creative energy). It says a lot by not saying much at all. Grab this crewneck for the creative in your life that likes to subtly turn heads.
11. ROAM LOAD
Seamless Collection
We know the New Year is a time to recommit yourself to the gym. We love the simplicity in their styles and neutral the colors in this collection — their joggers look super comfy too!
