Reindeer sweaters aren’t the only way to express affection for animals this holiday season. These items not only make perfect gifts, but they offer a nod to cute creatures with plenty of panache.
Hats off to D&Y’s Critter Kingdome woven trapper caps. This sock monkey is made with acrylic and polyester, so there's no itch factor ($28).
She'll get in touch with her inner cat woman with J.Crew Valentina printed patent d’Orsay pumps. The trendy animal print (which is all the rage this season) is a refreshing departure from the brand’s preppy rep ($248).
When you snag a pair of Kate Spade’s long zebra mittens, you'll also be doing good. The gloves help better the lives of women in Bosnia, who weave the stripy winter wear through philanthropic organization Women for Women International ($125).
Take flight with celebrity favorite jewelry designer Adina Reyter’s fluttery 14-karat gold butterfly necklace. Dove pendants are also available ($400).
These stocking stuffer-friendly, stitched leather Pocquettes kitten earbud holders are sure to prompt purring among cat aficionados ($25).
Bird fans are flocking to Leigh & Luca’s online shop to snap up the company's “foil swallow” bags, including this all-canvas tote with edgy gunmetal hardware ($215).
Anthropologie’s sketched surrealism scarf is for the birds — as well as mice, dogs and cats. The loopy animal drawing was rendered by artist Florence Balducci then transferred to luxe silk ($78).
Polly want a pin? MoMA’s exclusive two-piece parakeet brooch set by Mika Nakamura and Komako Oki is printed on felt and accented with gold-plated brass ($20).
The folks behind A Lot to Say donate a portion of the proceeds from their buttery-soft Fetch t-shirts, adorned with playful statements about the health benefits of owning pets, to the Animal Rescue Foundation ($49).
Men’s high fashion isn't immune to the call of the wild. Salvatore Ferragamo’s silk elephant tie is fit for (urban) jungle dwellers ($119).
