Christmas is getting closer and closer, with every new day that dawns — and unless you like to get your shopping done early, chances are, you’re in the midst of trying to come up with the best gifts for your loved ones. 

And while you’ve got your gifts for your husband, brother, and dad all picked out, you still haven’t gotten around to shopping for the ladies in your life — your best friend, your mom, your daughter, your sister, or your mother-in-law. You’re either overwhelmed with all of the possibilities, or you keep drawing a blank when you think about what she might like that you haven’t already gotten her (or maybe, you’re a husband desperately trying to figure out what to get for your wife, and you’ve come here for suggestions!).

Well, we’ve got you covered. Below, find our 50 best gift suggestions for the wonderful women in your life.

For her wardrobe…

01 | A plaid coat.

Every outfit will immediately be elevated as soon as she throws this on — plus, she’ll feel like she’s a detective in a mystery novel.

02 | A Pashmina scarf.

She’ll be wearing this scarf absolutely everywhere — it’s soft, warm, and lovely to top it all off.

03 | A pair of earrings.

No woman will ever own enough earrings, proving you really can’t ever go wrong with giving a pair as a gift.

04 | A velvet headband.

A damage-free solution to the problem of having hair always falling in one’s eyes.

A brand new sweater is always a welcome gift, especially if it’s been a while since she’s updated her wardrobe.

06 | A leather tote bag.

She’ll get so much good use out of this sturdy, genuine leather tote bag.

07 | A kimono.

While she can’t leave the house in this, she’ll love slipping it on every morning.

08 | A classic watch.

A watch makes every ensemble look that much more dignified.

09 | A beret.

She probably already has every other type of hat, but does she have a beret (the hat every woman secretly wants)?

17 | Shower steamers.

She’ll really appreciate these relaxing, refreshing shower steamers after she’s had a long day.
