A Gift That Gives Back: Hard Rock Imagine Collection {A Holiday Gift Guide Review}

*Product received for review.*

The Christmas season is all about giving. Giving gifts or giving back, the Hard Rock's 2013 Imagine There's No Hunger Campaign makes it easy to do both, with their selection of wonderful products benefiting WhyHunger. Did you know that  1.4 billion people live below the poverty line, 820 million people are undernourished, and 16,000 children die from hunger-related causes every day? If you could do your part to help no child go hungry, why wouldn't you? And with these products you can do so in style. For this review, I received the four products being sold for this cause:

• Men’s T-Shirt** - Inspired by John Lennon’s song IMAGINE, this chocolate cotton jersey tee features a Hard Rock logo and a peace hand with John Lennon’s signature.  ($26)

• Scarf** - This vibrant four-color scarf is made of woven rayon and features John Lennon’s signature with the words “Imagine There’s No Hunger.”  ($18)

• Pin* - This 3D antique gold base metal pin features a peace hand with the words “Imagine There’s No Hunger” vertically placed down the side, along with John Lennon’s signature and the Hard Rock Cafe logo.  ($12)

• Bracelet *-  Available in violet, blue and orange, this bracelet is made of woven thread with a brushed silver guitar pick charm embossed with the words “Imagine There’s No Hunger” and the Hard Rock Logo.  ($2 or more donation)

These items are the perfect gift for the music lover on your Christmas list. They are high quality, inexpensive, stylish and support a wonderful cause. For me, that person is my husband and 'Imagine' happens to be a song he loves as well (who doesn't!?). He's a band t-shirt and jeans kinda guy, so the tee is right up his alley. For me, I love the scarf. Seeing the pictures online, I honestly wasn't sure I would- I'm not a particular fan of clothing with logos on them- but the colors are absolutely stunning, and once it's on, you don't even notice the writing too much. I've honestly been looking for excuses to wear it (and thankfully with all the colors in it, it matches a lot!) The pin and bracelet are perfect stocking stuffers, and both benefit the cause 100%! If you're looking for the perfect, budget friendly gift that gives back, these are a great place to start.
