Shopping for the guys in my life has always been a little difficult, as we lack a lot of the same interests. None of them are into fashion, makeup, or candles, which is pretty much the extent of my holiday shopping expertise. Now that I’m in a new relationship, it’s getting even harder this holiday season, so I’ve been doing some extra research to get the best gifts for the masculine figures in my life! These are some of the ideas I have for my boyfriend, dad and brother, but can work for anyone! (Let’s hope they don’t see this post!)
- Tickets to a Concert/Event – If you are comfortable going out and being Covid safe, this is a great option. I got my boyfriend tickets to an event in Chicago that is a replica of his favorite television show. Picking an experience over an item is always a great gift, because it’s fun for you too!
- Charging Station – I see these new fancy phone charging stations everywhere, and you can’t go wrong with these. Obviously, everyone needs one.
- Clothes – Okay, clothes are a pretty common one, but I like them because they’re a perfect opportunity for you to dress your bf without telling him how to dress. I will be getting my boyfriend a hoodie that I may or may not plan on stealing. It’s a gift for you both! I also am planning to get him work clothes. He will be entering the business world soon and he will definitely be in need of some nice dress shoes and button ups!
- Commuter Cup/Mug – Thank you, Oprah for introducing me to this! A nice insulated cup/mug is a great investment for anyone, but especially those who are on the go during the day. They sell really nice ones on Amazon that are affordable and good quality.
- Smoked Beef Tenderloin – I don’t even know how to write a description of this one because I honestly don’t know what it is. I came across it on Oprah’s page again, and all I know is that all the men in my life like to cook meats. This one is a little pricier but I’m sure will somehow impress a guy who likes this kind of stuff. We’ll see if I decide to invest on this one.
Hopefully, this gives you some ideas and makes holiday shopping a little easier for you! I definitely am extra excited for this holiday season after doing some extensive research to get the best gifts ;). Happy holidays!
