The designer behind Etsy shop LuluLoves is based in Brooklyn, where she has seen firsthand the devastation that Hurricane Sandy caused her neighbors last week. As a stay-at-home mom, her volunteer options are limited so she’s choosing to do her part by donating 40% of the proceeds from the “Hope” scarf to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or someone on your holiday list, this hand knit wool blend scarf is the perfect gift that gives back.

Color blocking is a trend that certainly isn’t going anywhere, and now you can even incorporate it into your winter outdoors accessories.

We love these color block gloves by Verloop. The layered cable motif and colors of the pair on the left are so chic, and the merino wool-blend yarn offers warmth without added bulk. Addicted to your smart phone? The cashmere blend gloves on the right are designed to work with touch-screen devices with conductive yarn on the index finger and thumb. Never again will chilly temps get in the way of tweeting!

We saw a strong baseball influence in fashion this season, but for us the thought of stylish ladies donning baseball caps was still a stretch. Not any longer though, because FairEnds has released a series of unique hats made in the USA with deadstock fabric from Ghana, retailing for $48. If you like them, click over to shop quickly because they were only made in limited quantities!fairends_ghana_cap_thumb.jpg

In today’s world of constant tweeting, Instagramming and texting, fingerless gloves are a must. These Fair Isle gloves by UK-based Etsy store Helen Gray Designs are made from a soft lambswool blend to keep you hands toasty and fingers free to type.

With cocktail rings, it’s all about making a statement. We picked this Noir ring because it’s a classic emerald-shaped cubic zirconia that can go with any outfit, but has spikes for some glam edginess.
