    26 Gifts For The Person You *Just* Started Dating

    Here to help you strike the balance of sentimental *and* casual.

    Hey! While we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time for Christmas, shipping times are especially tricky this year and can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. Shop early and be sure to double check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for the 25th!

    1. A personalized work from home mug if you've both been bonding over the sheer boatloads of Zoom meetings you've attended this year. They'll think of you every time someone realizes they were muted the whole time they were talking.

    2. A set of four copper stemless wineglasses because they deserve a boozy upgrade. Especially for making sure they always get the good stuff for your dates!
