Christmas is less than two weeks away, and if you’re anything like me there are still many presents yet to be bought. It can be difficult to find the perfect gifts for everyone on a college gal’s budget, especially with so little time to spare. I’ve put together a list of easy gifts that anyone on your list would appreciate and they won’t break the bank.

Universal Portable Cell Charger

For those days where your battery just won’t make it, having a compact and portable charger in your purse can come in handy. There’s a ton of different models out there, but this one costs only $20.00 and can be found at any Staples or Best Buy.

“Bar” Necklace

Spend a little time on Pinterest and you’ll see this newest style of necklace everywhere. It’s not too hard to find both silver and gold versions, but often times these dainty accessories sell for high designer prices. Luckily, Urban Outfitters offers a bar necklace at only $16 and with the option of customizing it with an initial.

Wintertime brings harsh winds and dry skin. Allure magazine has repeatedly named the Soap & Glory brand as the ultimate body butters to restore moisture and heal the damaging effects of the bitter cold.  At just $15 and at your local Sephora, these are sure to please any girly girl on your list.
