From investment cardigans to everyday jewelry, we’ve found stylish and fun gifts you can give knowing they won’t need a gift receipt.
Want more holiday gifting ideas? Check out our full list of gift guides for everyone on your list.
An adorable hat to keep their ears warm…
A fun beanie is the perfect winter accessory — and the colorful contrasting ribbed knit helps this one stand out. It’s super soft, non-scratchy, and thick enough to shelter their head from the cold. Choose from eight color combinations. ($28, Verloop)
A backpack sleek enough for the office...
Not your middle school Jansport. This backpack has a minimalist silhouette that won't interfere with their outfit, and it's made of premium pebbled leather. A contrasting top handle and adjustable straps, plus contrast stitching, give it a retro-yet-grown-up vibe. Bonus points for the hook inside so they won't need to fish around for their keys. ($348, Dooney & Bourke)
A fleece coat that’s equal parts chic and cozy…
This high-collared coat has a long, roomy fit and deep pockets with secure zippers. Making it the perfect gift for anyone on-the-go (or on-the-couch) who doesn’t want to compromise style or comfort. Did we mention it’s machine-washable? Trust us, we won’t blame you for snagging one for yourself. ($199, Athleta)*
A set of pointelle T-shirts they can wear if they’re staying in or going out…
We can’t get enough of the ’90s-inspired essentials by Cou Cou. They can wear these cropped pointelle baby tees with sweats around the house, then pair with their favorite denim or a skirt to head to dinner. They can even grab the matching shorts later for a full lounge look. ($100, Net-A-Porter)
A minimalist card case that looks way more expensive than it is…
If they’re constantly rifling through their bag for their card, this is a sleek way to help them stay organized. It’s made of soft pebbled leather, has a zippered pocket for change, and is small enough to fit in a crossbody or shoulder bag. They'll never know you spent less than $30. ($29.90, Quince)
A cashmere sweater vest they can layer or wear on its own…
We’re very into sweater vests at the moment, and this cashmere one is a perfect gift. It’s incredibly soft, so if they’re wearing it as a top, it won’t feel scratchy or itchy. Of course, they can also wear it over a button-down or plain T-shirt. It comes in five colors, but the bright red will keep them on trend. ($98, J.Crew)
A pair of overalls for all their farmer’s market strolls…
The perfect look for a lazy Sunday. These classic Levi’s come in a light wash, and their rigid denim fabric won’t stretch out and get too baggy. They’re great for any season — pair with a tank top in the spring and a turtleneck in the fall — and also come in a peach color. ($99.99, Urban Outfitters)
A lightweight shoulder bag that fits a ton…
One of our editors bought this bag on a whim and it’s the only one she’s been wearing all year. It’s slouchy, but still has just the right amount of structure, and it comes in eight colorways. They’ll wonder how you found out about this bag (we won’t tell). The fact that it’s under $50 and packs easily? Icing on the cake. ($44, Urban Outfitters)
A flower choker that’ll make a statement…
You heard it here first (but chances are they already know): It’s time for chokers to be trendy again. If you think they’ll be thrilled about that, grab this eye-catching flower choker to make their outfit that much more interesting. It comes in four colors and gives us major “The OC” vibes. If you know, you know. ($30, Free People)
The original Boston Birkenstock…
You’ll be gifting them their new favorite fall/winter wardrobe essential. These classic, supremely comfy clogs work for anything from a coffee or grocery run to a casual day at the office. Best of all, they’ll last for years. ($158, Madewell)
A classic turtleneck for all their layering needs…
You can never go wrong with this silhouette. It’s simple, sleek, and can be paired with jeans or slacks so they can go from the office to after-work drinks. It fits true to size and comes in seven different colors, so you’ve got options to choose from. ($24, Banana Republic Factory)
An anklet that’s on the classier side…
This one is just stunning, from the delicate mesh chain to the high-shine gold. It’ll add a distinctive accent whether they’re pairing it with sneakers or heels, and best of all, it’s adjustable, so it’ll never cramp their style while they walk. It also comes in silver if that’s more their vibe. ($98, Jenny Bird)
A water-resistant case that’s like a puffer jacket for their phone…
Beloved by celebrities and influencers alike, this case is soft, squishy, and puffy, but not too bulky to feel good in their hand. It has raised edges to protect the screen, and full coverage on the sides, too. Plus, with more than 20 bright colors to choose from, you’re bound to find one they’ll love. ($33+, Urban Sophistication)
A baseball cap for creative types…
This 100% cotton hat is made in the USA and has a vintage vibe. It’s easily adjustable and even has a slot on the side where they can store a pen or pencil for jotting down ideas. ($65, Nordstrom)
The sneakers on every fashion person’s wishlist…
Adidas Sambas have been sweeping the nation (again), and there’s no chance of their resurgence going away anytime soon. These soccer sneakers have a suede upper and a gum sole, and look great with both jeans and dresses. The white is almost sold out, and we can’t believe there are still sizes left in the black. ($100, Finish Line)
A faux-leather bomber they’ll wear for years…
This jacket’s made of vegan leather, and has an oversized fit that works with everything from T-shirts to dresses. It comes in three different colors, and can even be machine washed. Say hello to their new spring and fall go-to. ($168, Free People)
The only cardigan they’ll ever need…
The Jenni Kayne Cocoon Cardigan is the stuff of legend. While it’s definitely an investment piece, this really is the most perfect cardigan we’ve ever seen, and any one of the four colors would make a great gift for someone who’s been extra good this year. ($345, Jenni Kayne)
A set of Egyptian cotton socks…
Arguably the best socks we’ve ever put on our feet, these are soft but sturdy, have a reinforced toe, and look great with loafers and sneakers. Nothing says “happy holidays” like something expensive that was made in Italy. ($138/five-pair pack, Comme Si)
A sweater that says it all…
Gift them this sassy wool sweater that’s bound to attract compliments. If they’re truly a fan of luxury…why not own it? ($295, Rowing Blazers)
A sweatshirt they won’t want to take off…
If the pandemic taught us anything, it’s that polished sweatshirts do exist, and Anine Bing makes some of our favorites. This one comes in washed black and is perfect for lovers of the City of Light. It’s 100% cotton and has a soft, lived-in feel from the first wear. It comes in sizes XS–XL. ($179, Revolve)
A cushioned sneaker they can run and walk in…
These are soft, light, and have a breathable mesh upper perfect for all-day wear. They come in 20 colors and two widths. We’ve tried Hokas and love them, so if you’re buying for an avid runner or walker, you really can’t go wrong. ($165, Hoka)
A fanny pack to stash their stuff…
Because long walks are in, and not every outfit has pockets. This neoprene bag has an interior pocket for a credit card, plus a zippered pocket on the outside. It also has a key ring and a place to keep their Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment (they already know). Choose from one of six colors, and they’re ready to roll. PS: Skimm'rs can get 15% until November 21 with code THESKIMM15. ($95, Dagne Dover)
An initial necklace they’ll never want to take off…
This dainty necklace, strung with either turquoise or blush-colored beads, is just the pop of color their jewelry game is missing. It comes with a gold initial of your choosing that sits on one side for a fun twist. It’s sure to become a staple in their necklace stack. ($28, BaubleBar)
A shoulder bag that actually holds more than a lip gloss…
Big bags are back, baby, and while this one isn’t big big, it’s still a far cry from the micro bags that have been popular in the past few years. It’s made of vegan leather, and has an adjustable shoulder strap and zip closure. We’re sure they’d be happy with any one of the nine colors. ($78.99, Amazon)
An everyday ring from one of our favorite jewelry brands…
Mejuri is always making hits. This ring inspired by French pastries is the perfect bold addition to your friend’s collection. It’s thick and shiny, and comes in 18-karat gold vermeil or sterling silver. Grab one for your giftee — and hey, you deserve a little treat, too. ($98, Mejuri)
