25 Fashion Gifts for the Health Food Lover

Because sometimes they're tired of baskets filled with fruit and nut butter.

As one of the healthiest eaters among my family and friends, I often find that those close to me struggle to come up with ways to give me gifts. They know better than to give me a cupcake on my birthday or a bottle of booze when I get a promotion or a new apartment. And since everyone I know has already sent me at least five Edible Arrangements, those are a no-go, too.

If this sounds like a familiar dilemma, you've come to the right place. I've scoured the web for all the cutest, coolest gear around—stuff you and the healthy foodies in your life are sure to love. From totes, beach towels, and cell phone cases to shirts, shoes, and funky socks, you're sure to find something to fit any budget and occasion. And afterwards, take them out to dinner, using our exclusive list of the 35 Hottest Healthy Restaurants in America!
