With Thanksgiving a few days away and Christmas fast approaching, the most wonderful time of the year can start to feel like the most stressful time of the year. I’m sure you know why; because gift giving can be so hard. Is there anything more frustrating than trying to figure out a perfect gift for someone who already has everything they need? That is where I come in, here are some quick ideas to solve your holiday shopping blues for that boyfriend/girlfriend/friend that seems to have it all.
Gifts for her:
Jewelry:
What girl doesn’t love something that sparkles? You can find a watch on any girl’s wrist these days, so this gift may get the most use. If watches aren’t your thing, you can’t go wrong with a Pandora charm or Alex and Ani bangle. So guys, get your girl something that will make her think of you as she puts it on every morning.
Coffee mug or wine glass:
If you’re looking for something more practical, a coffee mug or wine glass is your ace card. These items will be used by your girl every morning, or every night (cough, wine is acceptable at all times.) P.S A funny saying on the mug gets you extra points.
Scarf:
With the cold New Hampshire winter we are about to get just around the corner, your girlfriend will THANK you for a thick scarf to snuggle up to. What basic girl walks around UNH without a scarf keeping her warm anyway? Answer: No one.
Victoria’s Secret galore:
Want to know what every girl always uses? Victoria’s Secret lotion, perfume, pajamas, yoga pants…the list could go on until New Year’s. Seriously, anything in this store will make you a winner.
Spa day:
If you’re looking to really go above and beyond this holiday season, treat your girl to a spa day. A relaxing day filled with massages, facials and manicures will remind her just how lucky she is to receive such a thoughtful gift.
For him:
Hats:
The equivalent to girls wearing scarves everyday is guys wearing hats. From repping sports teams to cities, getting your guy a hat won’t go to waste. You’d think they have a rotation of them.
Personalized beer glass:
I have to admit, this is one of the more creative ideas I’ve come across. Guys are always drinking beer so why not help them mature from drinking out of the can to drinking from a frosty glass.
Wallet:
Is it just me or are guys really into nice wallets? So help your man out ladies, and get him a wallet that he will definitely use until it breaks…and think of you every time he opens it.
Go Pro:
We all know a Go Pro is on the pricey side, but we also know it travels with guys EVERYWHERE. If you’re willing to splurge a little on your guy, this is the gift to do it with. And you can also use it to take cute pictures of you guys with. Bonus!
Speakers:
The gift that never gets old. AKA speakers are always a go-to. We all listen to music, right?
Hopefully you all feel inspired now and won’t feel like a cotton headed ninny muggins. Happy Holidays!
