Let the holiday shopping commence. I feel like this time of year always sneaks up on me. And by this time of year, I have a long list of people I want to buy gifts for and no ideas at all. I love gift giving but finding ideas under pressure is so hard. I’m also a perfectionist when it comes to the gifts I give. I spend days thinking about the person’s personality, and their interests stressing about whether they would really like the gift I got them. If you’re anything like me in that sense I’m hoping some of the ideas I’ve pulled can help you find gifts for your mom, sister, gal pal, or any other special lady in your life.
Gifts for a Beauty Lover
You cannot go wrong with a sample gift box or even just some bath bombs from lush. As a beauty junkie myself I love the excuse to try new products or pamper myself, especially during the winter months.
Gifts for a Fashionista
For the fashionista in your life a cute sweater, dress, or accessory is perfect. I love giving dainty wearable jewelry or cozy accessories for the season to my fashion-loving friends. You could also give the gift of sustainability with a subscription to Rent the Runway!
Gifts for Travelers
The wanderluster in your life might be a tad difficult to buy for this year. But we can always think ahead to a happier future post-pandemic with some fun travel accessories, maybe create a coupon system or plan for a trip together for the future. I also really love the idea of a travel journal for their next adventure.
Gifts for the Home Chef
I don’t know about you but being home due to COVID I’ve been spending a lot more time in the kitchen trying new recipes. So if you have a friend that’s been spending more time in the kitchen a new cookbook or gadget for their baking or cooking experience is the perfect gift.
Gifts for a Fitness Lover
Like your traveling friends, gyms and fitness studios are difficult to come by these days, and as the days get shorter and colder I find my personal motivation for activities dwindle so give the gift of inspiration to the fitness fanatic. New activewear, running accessories, or sweaters for the runners in your life can be a bit of inspiration to get them back on track with their fitness goals.
No matter what the gift is remember we are all in some tough spots this year. Don’t stress too much about what to get. The importance of this holiday season is you and your family’s health.
