The 36 best gifts for women that she's sure to love
Treat your mom, sister, best friend or another special lady to any of these thoughtful gift ideas.
There's always something to celebrate — her birthday, your anniversary and of course the upcoming holiday season. And while searching for just the right present is fun, it can be overwhelming and time-consuming — but don't worry because I’ve got you covered with a range of unique gifts for women.
Is she a gardener? She might dig this butterfly puddler for the yard. Maybe she’s had her eye on something gold and sparkly but isn’t one to treat herself. Get the job done with these teardrop studs or a trendy pendant necklace.
This list of top-tier gifts for her is perfect for any recipient or occasion. How can I be so sure? As Yahoo's gifting editor, it's my job to find special, one-of-a-kind gift ideas for the people you love most. Not to mention that I'm a girl's girl through and through, so I also know a thing or two about celebrating the women in my life — my mom, aunts and sister-in-law, to name a few — whenever the moment calls for it (and even when it doesn't). Check out the best Black Friday deals before you shop, too.
Update, Nov. 15, 2024: We checked all product prices and availability and moved some of our readers' favorites to the top of the list. We also added four new gift ideas for the holiday shopping season: a trendy Kendra Scott pendant necklace, a Charlotte Tilbury gift set, a J. Crew scarf and a Bonne Maman holiday gift set.
Best gifts for women
Puransen
Flowers tell a story — especially when placed inside this acrylic vase, which is designed to look like an actual book. "This is a classy and cute little bookend. Sturdy, good quality and serves it's purpose well," says a reviewer who bought this gem as a gift. Stick real or faux blooms inside to prove that very point.
Pop this lavender-scented wrap in the microwave for 30 seconds and it'll soothe tired, aching joints and muscles. Wrap it around your neck or place it on any trouble areas for relief.
Body Restore
Upgrade her everyday shower with these scented tabs, which release essential oils as they dissolve to ease congestion and enhance relaxation. "They take a mundane daily experience and elevate it. As a stay-at-home mom, I feel like — even for the briefest moment — I'm at the spa," one happy customer wrote. Opt for the variety mix, so she can breathe in all six scents: eucalyptus, citrus, lavender, jasmine, bergamot spring and chamomile.
Give her this aesthetically pleasing makeup gift set from Charlotte Tilbury, featuring four popular faves for lips and cheeks: a travel-sized Lip Cheat lipliner, Matte Revolution lipstick, Beauty Light Wand highlighter and a Big Lip Plumpgasm gloss. The Pillow Talk line is viral for a reason — these shades are pretty much universally flattering.
J. Crew
Give her the gift of warmth this winter. J. Crew's brushed woven scarf is super-soft and cozy, making the transition from bed to work a little easier on cold winter mornings. The simple stripe design makes this stylish scarf a classic, and you can grab it in three colors.
Make no mistake: This set of eight mini jars is no Griswold-ian jelly of the month club. With this affordable gift set, she'll get a variety of preserves, jelly and jam so she can up her toast game and pretend every morning is a leisurely Sunday. She's sure to find a flavor in this set that is, shall we say, her jam.
Thanks to you, her jewelry will travel in style. Small but mighty, this monogrammed jewelry case has seven ring slots, three necklace hooks, eight earring holes and a removable divider to keep her other treasures organized.
