30 Perfect Gift Ideas for Every Woman in Your Life

0


There’s no time like the present to check some names off your gift list.

Drain the last dregs of your PSL and get ready to egg your nog–the leaves are falling, another Daylight Saving Time has come to an end, and Mariah Carey is warming up her whistle register. No, it’s not even Thanksgiving yet, but wouldn’t it be nice to be done with your holiday shopping by the time Turkey Day rolls around?

If you’re drawing a massive blank, you’re not alone–most people struggle with coming up with a great gift. Part of it is time. We’re all pulled in multiple different directions throughout the day. Another part of it is the meaning and emotion we attach to the gift-giving process. We want a gift to tell the recipient, “I care about you, I know you, and I know that this will delight you.” Suddenly buying a bathrobe feels like a high-stakes endeavor.

But a gift doesn’t have to be big, or expensive, or have major “wow factor” in order to be great. It just has to show that you’re noticing someone’s likes and needs. Even a small token can demonstrate that you’ve thought about what they would really enjoy and get a lot of use out of. Maybe it’s something they’ve wanted for a while; maybe it’s an upgrade of something they already own.

Whatever you choose, make sure it’s speaking to them as a person. All too often, women’s gift ideas rely on the flowers/chocolates/candles/bath products mainstays. Which is fine, if that’s what your mom/sister/aunt/significant other/gal pal/work bestie likes. But even with that, you can get specific. What kind of flowers does Aunt Rhoda like? What fragrance candle does your sister light when she needs to unwind?

We’ve assembled a collection of gifts that suit a wide range of interests and tastes (and budgets). One note: given…well, everything…about the past few years, it’s a good idea to give yourself as big a buffer as possible. Although we’re used to the convenience of next-day shipping, many businesses are still experiencing delays–and the closer we get to December, the busier shipping companies will be. (The USPS has released its holiday shipping deadlines, just FYI.) So click “add to cart” now, and in a few weeks you won’t have anything to worry about other than having room for a second slice of pie.
