We spend a LOT of time doing online “research” so that when the holidays roll around…we’re ready. We know the best places to find truly unique gifts and we have taken copious notes on all the products we and our loved ones (kids, grandparents, siblings, spouses, partners, besties…) can’t live without. Expect to find some seriously niche (and quirky) gift guides — like a gift guide for the one who loves Barbiecore — as well our more broadly useful 13 Gifts Ideas For the Ultra-Picky Guy. And if you are looking for toys, don’t miss our Ultimate Toy Guide: The Best Toys For All Ages & Stages.

For more holiday joy, head back to Holiday Central, our one-stop-shop for all the sparkle, sales and presents we have to offer.

Gift Ideas For Her

Whether you’re shopping for your wife, mom, girlfriend, partner or — oh hey — yourself, we’ve found some seriously fun ideas. From handmade beanies by Sh*t That I Knit and the ever-popular (+ practical) Ember Mug to luxe beauty products by Tom Ford and Charlotte Tilbury, our favorite gift ideas are right here. And if the lucky gal in question happens to be into fashion, be sure to check out our holiday outfit inspiration as well.

Gift Ideas For Him

Trying to gift the man who has everything? Or (even worse) the guy who basically buys anything he wants the hot second he wants it? Yeah — we know that guy (some of us are married to him). Here are our best gift ideas for picky guys, including a few budget items that go the distance (see that Kiehl’s facial gift set under $50?), luxury items worth the splurge (that fire pit ain’t just for him), and — yup — some tech gifts, too (that travel projector is #goals).

Gift Ideas For Kids + Teens

We have strong opinions when it comes to toys for kids. In general, we look for open-ended toys, the kind that foster creativity, help develop critical thinking skills, and/or just get some of that energy out. We love STEM and STEAM gifts, but aren’t going to swoon over gimmicky robots. Instead, we look to high-quality art supplies, building toys of all kinds, and seriously good board games. All of our very favorite toys can be found in our (newly updated) Ultimate Toy Guide: The Best Toys For All Ages & Stages.  We also love playing video games, and have frequent debates about the best video game consoles, or whether kids should be allowed to play Call of Duty.

Gift Ideas For Everyone

Looking for a gift that’s wildly unique…or totally exciting…or decidedly un-cheesy…or completely practical? These are our favorite kinds gifts to round up! Think tech gifts under $50 (hey, cute charging station), handmade gifts from Etsy (hot chocolate bombs, anyone?) and super-pretty chess sets. So whether you’re looking for a hostess gift or a best friend gift, a gift for the nanny or the teacher, or just a cool gift for a really interesting person…we have IDEAS.
