I hate to break it to you, but when it comes to gifting fashion girls, the “it’s the thought that counts” excuse doesn’t really work. More likely, this type of recipient knows exactly what they want to unwrap during the holidays, right down to the color, size, and retailer they’d like you to buy it from. The only problem is that they might not tell you these things outright, but rather, hope you just know. That’s why this year, I decided to save you the hurt. The holidays, after all, are stressful enough.
To ensure that every item on your closest fashion friend’s wishlist, whether you’re privy to it or not, gets checked off, I spent a chunk of my day scrolling through hundreds of potential gifts. A good five hours later, I’d successfully rounded up 70 options that are guaranteed to go over smoothly with even your most stylish best friend, S.O., your sister, or super-cool aunt. Scroll down to shop them all.
