1. Sterling silver cubic zirconia studs that look like a trillion bucks, but thankfully cost very little and can actually be purchased using even my own humble savings account.
2. A stretchy velvet cami that is IT. And by IT, I mean that this is the perfect ~going out~ top they'll be able to layer under a leather jacket. The days of them cancelling on you last minute ("I have nothing to wear!") are officially long gone.
3. An ultra soft terry jumpsuit they can easily dress up with a pair of pumps for dinner and then *breathes sigh of relief* they can cab it home, take off said pumps before collapsing onto their bed, and go straight to sleep. This versatile piece is that cozy.
4. A henley tunic that can be tucked into high-waisted jeans, worn over their most see-through leggings, or donned with a leather skirt. Do you see a pattern here? Versatility. Versatility is the pattern.
5. A cult-favorite Orolay parka to help them thrive through even the most frigid of winters. Designed with a sherpa-lined hoodie, deep pockets, and the perfect midi length to make sure their ~assets~ are covered, they'll often find themselves wondering how they survived the cold without it.
6. Tiered chandelier earrings that have the witchy ability to turn unintentionally ripped jeans and a wrinkled white tee into an ensemble suitable for champagne and caviar feasts.
7. Pull-on Levi Strauss jeans that look like their typical hunk of denim but are actually even more comfortable than their favorite leggings. And no button digging into their belly button? Halle- and I cannot stress this enough -lujah.
8. A velvet dress so luxe, it'll look like you just spent the entirety of several paychecks on this one designer item; but surprise! You didn't. This gorgeous number is surprisingly way more affordable than they'll assume.
9. A ruffled one-shoulder dress featuring a thigh-high slit for legs that feel like playing a subtle game of peek-a-boo. Bonus points for the fact that this is the perfect shade of lipstick red, which is the only color they'll want to see inn their wardrobe from now on (READ: other than black).
10. Tried-and-true Hunter rain boots guaranteed to have them begging for rain *just* as an excuse to wear these adorable things out. If they're looking for something puddle-proof that won't leave their socks drenched in water by the time their commute is done, get them these.
11. A clothing subscription box for the pickiest pint-sized dresser in your life. Take a style quiz to determine the kind of outfit your kiddo would love and an entire outfit will be sent to your doorstep, hassle-free. And yes, shoes are included!
12. A fitted turtleneck available in the only hue they'll want in their closet: black. This ultra versatile piece is plain enough to be worn casually but can easily be dressed up by a pair of heels, good denim, and the statement earrings they purchased on clearance but have yet to wear.
13. Crew socks that are like a warm hug for their feet, because who says toes don't deserve a good snuggle? Plus, these will do a good job at keeping their hooves feeling warm without making 'em sweaty...which is no small feat.
14. A sterling silver knot ring here to make holiday shopping so much easier. It's the perfect gift for both a loved one or yourself (the latter option is probably what I'd go for if I were you).
15. A cowl neck tunic for the perfect blend of comfort and versatility. This may feel like a cozy pajama top, but they'll also be able to confidently leave their house while wearing it.
16. An easy-to-clean Dagne Dover canvas wallet with ten card slots, four cash (AND *ahem* RECEIPT) holders, an exterior pocket, and secure snap closures. PLUS! It has a super slim design that won't look or feel bulky in your purse.
17. Vintage-inspired high-rise jeans they'll find themselves wearing on the daily. There is nothing quite as fantastic as receiving good denim, and these cult-favorites are simply the very best.
18. An oversized crewneck for the pal that lives and breathes the word cozy. An ideal Friday night for them entails a true crime documentary binge and a lovely glass of wine, both enjoyed whilst wearing this sweater.
19. A chiffon blouse that is absolutely lovely for the dinner and drinks commitment they made with you for this weekend. Hooray for no more last-minute cancellations on account of not having anything to wear!
20. Over-the-knee tights designed to be the perfect stocking (😉) stuffer. The lace crown detailing gives 'em a little extra something, but the all-black hue means they can wear these beauties with pretty much anything.
21. An elastic waist one-shoulder dress that *may* just become their NYE dress this year (because they obviously did not go shopping for one yet).
22. Black flats they'll be able to throw on with any hue/print/style without fear of being stopped by the fashion police — these babies are pretty much guaranteed to not clash with anything in their closet! I know I know, they usually wear black, but these are great for just in case they decide to wear some fun colors.
23. A button-back top that will feel like a polished, more sophisticated version of their favorite white tee.
24. Cat eye sunglasses they'll want to throw on when you've just left the house wearing a wrinkled tee and probably dirty leggings. Will these pull together their look and make it seem chic? Absolutely — plus, the adorable included case and cleaning cloth make this the perfect gift.
25. A 100% cotton flannel plaid shirt best accessorized with a fleece blanket, cozy socks, a mug of hot chocolate, and several cheesy holiday films being played on your television.
26. A ribbed faux fur pom beanie because the holidays are great, but here's a gentle reminder that weather around the holidays is not great: it's freezing. Give them the gift of keeping their noggin warm (and stylish).
27. A pair of Madewell curvy jeans specifically designed for hourglass figures sick and tired of having to wear a belt. Each pair is thoughtfully crafted with a longer rise, slightly more narrow waist, and a hint of extra room at the hip and thighs to highlight their assets — no more gaping waistbands or having to go up a size to get the perfect fit for their legs and booty.
28. A button-up blouse for anyone ready to retire their former LBT (little black top). It served them well, but after wearing it approximately 98 times within the past six months...it's time they consciously uncouple.
29. Splurge-worthy perforated sneakers made from quality Italian leather. Can't get them to Florence anytime soon? Eh, have them slip these gorgeous things on and take 'em for a walk around your neighborhood instead. It's almost the same thing.
30. An asymmetric midi skirt available in the only pattern their eyes have had the pleasure of seeing this past season: LEOPARD. I truly don't care if everyone and their mother owns something similar to the below, you *know* that your trendiest pal will love it.
31. A simple, lightweight knit cardigan equipped with pockets that they'll want to keep in their freezing cold office, where the AC seems to think of Antarctica as weather paradise.
32. A faux leather bucket bag that they'll be able to cart from work to drinks and everything in between. Is the below a fancy designer brand? No! But the quality and style are so top-notch that they'll simply assume it is.
33. An oversized faux shearling jacket so soft, they'll basically feel as if they're wearing a combination of their favorite blanket and most cuddly teddy bear. Comfortable + super on-trend = all they want this holiday season.
34. A sheer sleeve tunic dress here to save the day. And by save the day, I mean it's the kind of outfit that's perfect for any occasion — whether work (boring) or happy hour drinks (not boring).
35. A faux fur-line Cole Haan quilted coat currently 66% off, which means you'll practically be gifting something that was free...am I right? *has no money* *wonders why*
36. A layered choker necklace so dainty, they'll find themselves reaching for it every single morning. Consider this their new pièce de résistance.
37. Heeled sandals here to provide something that many shoes cannot: comfort. Because what does we all unanimously love? Looking like we tried this morning when we, in fact, did not try at all.
38. A satin pajama set for anyone looking to lounge in luxury. SURPRISE! Their weekend-long conspiracy-theory-videos-on-YouTube binge can now be considered a fancy occasion.
39. A padded velvet headband they can slip on over their mane and suddenly they've transformed into Blair Waldorf and their hair looks freshly-washed (even though we both know that's not the case).
40. A side slit tunic top that's slightly longer in the back, meaning they can rock their see-through leggings with ease knowing that the color of their underwear will remain anonymous to the world.
41. A zip-up sherpa jacket featuring a gorgeous splash of colors for anyone who is sick of the sea of black, white, and gray currently residing in their closet. This gives an instant pop of warmth and color to whatever outfit they've thrown on this morning.
42. TSLA leggings comparable to bottoms from much more expensive brands. Not only are these high-waisted leggings super comfortable, but they've also got pockets and aren't see-through. Can all of their other leggings say the same? I think not.
43. High-top canvas sneakers for anyone who frequently rocks out to "Sk8er Boi" on Spotify. Do they actually own a skateboard? No — but these shoes will at least help them *think* that they have the kind of coordination necessary for one.
44. A digital watch that's high quality minus the high price tag. This nifty accessory displays time and date, plus is equipped with a stopwatch and alarm functions that perhaps they won't snooze through (*cough* unlike their iPhone every single morning).
45. Plush leopard leggings featuring reflective detailing best described as ~snazzy~. Plus, these bottoms are ultra soft, moisture-wicking, and have a teeny back pocket to store small essentials.
46. No-show socks that won't peek out over the top of their lace-up sneakers. PLUS! These comfy bad boys have a silicone backing on the heel which translates to 👏 no 👏 more 👏 slipping 👏 socks 👏.
47. A locket necklace so they can diffuse essential oils wherever they may go. This locket contains felt pads, so all they'll have to do is add a teeny drop of lavender to help feel more calm, cool, and collected on particularly stressful days.
48. A turtleneck sweater made from a blend of merino wool and alpaca that makes it both super soft and substantial. This easy-to-wear layer will soon become a staple in their weekly wardrobe, one that you may be tempted to steal every now and again.
49. Cut-out leather heels they'll want to avoid wearing to fancy functions like, say, a wedding. Why? Everyone will be so distracted by how gorgeous these stilettos are, the newlyweds will hardly receive any compliments themselves.
50. A swing dress that will be on constant rotation in their wardrobe. The jersey knit material is super lightweight and the design itself isn't clingy, which basically means they can count on this as a chic update to their most beloved pajamas.
51. A relaxed-fit denim jacket made from the touch, the feel, the fabric of our lives — 100% cotton. If you take a page from the JoBros book and travel to the Year 3000, you'll see that people are still sporting this classic.
52. A splurge-worthy tailored coat because little black dresses are lovely, but what's more important than a LBD? A little black coat! They'll be able to drape this on over any outfit without having to worry about color/cold weather accessory coordination.
53. Microsuede ankle booties destined to become part of their daily uniform due to how comfy, versatile, and stylish they are. They'll scream cha ching when thinking about owning these boots.
54. Zodiac-inspired 18k gold-layered rings anyone would love ~to the moon~ and back. Looking for a truly out of this world gift? Look no further.
55. A hooded pullover so soft, they'll find themselves wearing 24/7. From lounging around their apartment to running around and doing errands, you'll be giving them the gift of a new wearable soulmate that they'll never want to part with.
56. A no-tie lacing system that is durable, adjustable, and conforms to their foot for a personalized feel. This is great for the clumsiest pal in your friend group, the kind that frequently trips walking up the stairs.
57. A swanky bandage dress because one can never really go wrong with gifting a little black dress, particularly not during the holiday season.
58. An RFID-blocking Ridge wallet designed with a money clip and surprisingly slim silhouette considering it can house up to 12 cards. This genuinely good gift is something that they'll use on the daily and will make 'em think of you fondly whenever they go to pay for their morning coffee.
59. Statement chandelier earrings they'll be able to don for every single ~fancy schmancy~ event they plan on attending in the foreseeable future.
60. Wool sneakers so incredibly soft and cozy, you'll feel like you're walking on the FLUFFIEST cloud imaginable. These shoes also have a padded insole, a super lightweight sole, and the laces? They're made from 100% recyclable material.
61. A silver satin midi skirt that is the only thing I *personally* want for Christmas this year. Mariah Carey, I'll be singing in your honor whenever I slip on this to me, from me present.
62. A Levi's motorcycle jacket available in nine different colors and finishes, from charcoal suede to green croc-inspired faux leather. Rest assured that any option you choose will be much loved/appreciated by your most fashionable pal.
63. Danskin bootcut yoga pants that reviewers swear one can wash an approximate 130000 times, and they'll consistently emerge from the laundry room looking just as they did when they were first ripped out of their packaging.
64. A fun statement belt to nix sagging jeans AND outfit boredom! This pretty accessory will both keep your high-waisted denim in place *and* add a pop of western-inspired metal to whatever they're wearing.
65. An oversized cowl neck pullover so buttery soft and cozy, they'll probably be wearing it from now until next spring (when overbearing humidity will force them to finally give it a break).
66. A leather crossbody handbag guaranteed to be the *only* purse they tote around from here on out. From the detachable chain strap to the gorgeous deep red color, their eyes will involuntarily tear as they rip open the gift wrapping on this.
67. A ruffled pencil dress they'll be eternally grateful you purchased. When they have yet another "I'm not sure why I came to this" event, THIS is what they're going to wear. No more destroying their closet to find something decent. They'll just have to pull this out.
68. A DKNY sherpa hoodie for the football fanatic of your friend group! Consider this a more stylish upgrade to the constant sports gear they're usually wearing.
69. Roll-up flats that make for the absolute best stocking stuffer. These can be stashed in even their tiniest clutch and slipped on whenever their four-inch heels become too much to bear during that lousy morning commute (in which they're already running late, missed the train, and haven't had a proper cup of coffee).
70. A twill wool maxi coat so trendy yet simple, they'll basically be able to wear it with anything. "Go ahead! Break out those trendy plaid culottes, because I've just given you gold in the form of outerwear!" —you to your very grateful friend.
71. Lightweight joggers made from an ultra soft cotton-blend material. For anyone who wants to feel as if they're wearing their most beloved PJ's while trying to figure out the complicated equipment scattered throughout their expensive gym, this is what they'll want to wear.
72. High-waisted ponte knit leggings complete with pockets on the backside, which basically means that these are equally as dressy (+ thankfully a lot more comfy) than their work slacks.
73. An off-the-shoulder cocktail dress to suffer the same fate as their favorite jeans or your softest tee. In other words, they WILL wear this gorgeous LBD all the darn time.
74. A turtleneck sweater dress they can pair with black tights and booties for the ultimate ~dinner date~ look! The only thing that will be more exciting than their outfit will be the bread and butter resting at the center of the table.
75. A high-neck lantern blouse sure to be the ~light~ of both their life and their wardrobe. This snazzy top can make even the most basic pair of blue jeans look high fash-un.
76. A snakeskin bomber jacket they can throw on over a wrinkled black tee and et voila! Their look is suddenly très trendy and totally suitable for the hippest restaurant in town. The power of a good layer, am I right?
77. A velvet wrap dress sure to leave 'em drooling upon first glance. This is undeniable proof that love at first sight EXISTS, and suddenly I find myself being empathetic to the case of Romeo and Juliet.
78. A V-neck tunic top that is super simple and super basic, which is something that *no* closet can never have enough of (it's also available in several neutral colors that one can't go wrong with gifting).
79. Wide leg pants that look significantly more put-together than their favorite pair of leggings, but these palazzo bottoms have a secret...they're actually made from a soft knit material comfy enough to sleep in. This means = they'll be able to wear this with both their highest heels and bunny-shaped house slippers.
