Well collegiettes, Thanksgiving was last week so you know what that means: Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! No matter which holiday you are celebrating this season, it is without a doubt the most wonderful time of the year between the family being together, the decorations, the cold weather, exams being over, and all the hot chocolate. This past week kicked off the start of the holiday season crunch with Black Friday sales, the best time to start stocking up on stocking stuffers and presents for friends and family. But if you’re anything like me and decided to sleep in on Friday and avoid the mall at all costs, here are some great gift options for all your girls, all under $25!
Anthropologie Stone Coaster $14
For your friend who is basically Joanna Gaines in training, these crystal coasters are an elegant way to Fixer Upper the boring decor of the dull pre-furnished college apartments.

BH Cosmetics 11 Piece Makeup Brush Set $23

Etsy Friends Mug $19
For your best friend and roommate, this mug is a cute way to remind her that she is and always will be the Monica to your Rachel and you still do not understand why you guys haven’t been discovered for your own comedy sitcom by now.

Animal Shaped Succulent Vase $7+
For your friend who would jump out of the car to pet a puppy, there are succulent vases on Amazon that look like different types of animals. My top favorites are the corgi pup and the zebra which are both super cute!

Quilted Chambray Backpack $20
For your trendy friend that’s definitely the Carrie of the group, this backpack is a definite upgrade from the Jansport she rocked in high school. The navy color is a classic neutral and it looks way more expensive than most Charlotte Russe pieces. She can use it functionally for both class and when she’s out.

I hope this gives you some gift inspiration, collegiettes! Happy shopping!
