As a special way to spread the love this holiday season, we asked Cedella Marley and Ziggy Marley to share their top creative gift ideas for friends and family, as well as some of their favorite spots to spend the holidays and what best describes their holiday style. Armed with Marley Natural lifestyle products, personal gifts, and a soundtrack from their father, here’s how Cedella and Ziggy celebrate the holidays in true Marley fashion!

Cedella Marley: Holidays in the Tropics

As the first-born daughter of Bob and Rita Marley, Cedella is a true reflection of reggae royalty; Bob Marley named her after his own mother. An accomplished singer, author, fashion designer, and entrepreneur, she’s a self-made woman who continues to honor and uphold her father’s legacy. You may remember her as a teenager performing with The Melody Makers, the Marley sibling group featuring her younger brothers Ziggy and Stephen. These days, she’s the CEO of Tuff Gong International and director of the Bob Marley Foundation, keeping the family business in the best of hands.
