Celebrity Gift Giving Guide

Tis’ the season of giving, so why not give the gift that keeps on giving? Celebrities aren’t the ones who feel the generous spirit around the holidays! Sign up at agoodcause.com to shop by item or charitable organization of your choice. By simply signing up for free account, you can shop and browse over 850 sites where the retailer will donate a percentage of the sale to charity. Here are a few of our favorites:

Want to make a difference and get a cute pair of shoes out of it? TOMS shoes will give a pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair purchased. TOMS has donated over 115,000 pairs to needy children worldwide. Celebrities such as Tobey Maguire, Brittany Murphy and Lindsay Lohan have been spotted in TOMS. Check out the variety at TOMSshoes.com.

Do you think of Brad Pitt every time you get into the shower? Maybe not yet, but this might help! JPF Eco Systems (a charitable foundation created by Kiehl’s and Brad Pitt) will receive 100 percent of sales of the Kiehl's Aloe Vera Biodegradable Liquid Body Cleanser.

Need some new arm candy this holiday? UNICEF will receive 25 percent of the sales of the Gucci for UNICEF white python hobo bag. View the e-film highlighting Frida Giannini's collaboration with Rihanna in celebration of the 2008 Gucci Campaign to benefit UNICEF.

Want to sparkle like the stars? The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation will receive 100 percent of the sales of the miniature Swarovski Stars designed by celebrities like Fergie, Jennifer Garner, Ellen DeGeneres, Teri Hatcher and Kate Walsh. To learn more or bid on a Swarovski Star visit clothesoffourback.org.

Oprah’s infamous favorite things list this year was a little different than years past. Most of the gifts were homemade and economical! The talk show queen highlighted such inexpensive ideas as treasure boxes for kids, garden gift baskets and gratitude boxes for a holiday host/hostess. As usual, Miss O also threw in a few of her favorite book recommendations.

What do you buy the “jetsetter” on your gift list this year? Celebrities like Mila Jovovich prefer the swanky Samsonite Black Label Resort Collection luggage for their travel needs. If the Louis Vuitton luggage set is a bit out of your price range, this is a great alternative and a lot less likely to get stolen!

For those high-profile parents who just can’t get out of the headlines (think Madonna, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears) the Net Nanny Home Guide may be the perfect solution! This web-filtering and blocking software gives parents “maximum parental control” over what their children have access to on the Internet. With the help of just a few key words, Angie doesn’t have to fear that Maddox or Zahara read Jennifer Aniston’s “uncool” comments.

If there is one thing celebrities in 2008 gave us, it was many memorable mugshots! If Lindsay, Paris Hilton and Shia LaBeouf want to keep it clean in 2009, they may need to invest in the AlcoHawk PT500, an inexpensive but incredibly accurate breathalizer. You’d think they would have learned their lesson in rehab.

Naughty? Nice? If you are one of many celebrities who got into a little fender bender this year, this may be the gift for you! The new Lexus LS460 has a self parking option, which includes an advanced parking guidance system. Heather Locklear, P. Diddy, Brandon Davis and more may be putting this on their wish list for Santa.

The divas of 2008 have once thing in common: big hair! Beyonce, Jessica Simpson and Mariah Carey can have an amazing blow out and be eco-friendly at the same time. The HP Ionic Styling Hair Dryer is the first U.S.A. made, energy efficient hair dryer on the market, and it’s even got a lifetime guarantee!

With more and more celebs going green, one might consider gifting the Style Café Moms’ Eco-Friendly Trio Celebrity Baskets. Style Cafe Moms, an online “resource cafe for the trendy mom”, organized green-living baskets for Salma Hayek, Jennie Garth and Tina Fey, who all loved them!

The secret is out! Husbands who are at a loss for ideas might consider following in the footsteps of David Beckham who was recently spotted shopping at Victoria’s Secret. Whether it’s sexy or sweet, lingerie is one thing to keep the mood spicy around the holidays. Sure, most women might not have the runway strut of Heidi Klum but this gift is definitely a win-win for any couple!

You don't have to make millions to give gifts like the stars. Straight from the stars themselves, here are some simple, yet elegant gift-giving ideas!
