For her special day, Valentine’s Day, or just because, your girlfriend deserves a thoughtful gift that fits her style. We have gifts for everyone in the group, from a cozy wool throw blanket for the couch potato to high-class glasses for the host to a small portable speaker for the music lover.
These are the best gifts that say, “You’re the best girlfriend,” no matter what the event or how much money you have. She can wear them every day or use the technology she didn’t know she needed.
The following are some cute things you can send to your girlfriend at work:
a) A throw blanket with weights to help you sleep better
Weighted blankets can help you relax and sleep better, and Bearaby’s Cotton Napper looks good on any couch or bed. It’s one of the best weighted blankets we’ve tried, and it comes in different colors and weights to fit her and her home. You can also wash it in the washing machine. It is one of the more expensive gifts in this guide, at $200 to $300 depending on weight. The Luna Weighted Blanket is a better choice for less money, as it costs less than $100 most of the time and less than $50 sometimes.
b) Colored glasses for a fancy drink party
Estelle Colored Glass makes these drinks glasses. It is a Black-owned home decor brand that specializes in high-end hand-blown glassware. The host who wants her drinkware to look as good as the drinks will love this six-piece set. The shapes are classic, but the colors are modern. If she’d rather have champagne, we also love the Champagne Coupe Stemware from Estelle Colored Glass.
c) This is the softest changeable throw blanket.
The Bliss Sherpa spread from UGG is one of our favorites. It has a wool-like feel on one side and a smoother microfleece feel on the other. It’s great for relaxing in front of the TV, and it’s big enough for two people to sit on for a home movie night.
d) A textured foam brush to get rid of any knots
If your girlfriend’s muscles are tired from hard workouts or being on her feet all the time, a foam roller is a great gift to help them heal. The TriggerPoint Gear Foam Rolling is one of the best rollers we’ve tried because it’s small, made of waterproof material, easy to pack, and cheap. But if you’re willing to spend more than $100, we also suggested stronger choices, such as vibration rollers.
e) A styling tool that works well for all hair types
The Style & Beauty staff thinks the Shark FlexStyle is the most similar multi-styling tool to the Dyson Airwrap. Even though it costs half as much as the Airwrap, it is still a good buy for a friend who wants to get better at styling her hair at home.
f) A digital camera that works with Bluetooth
You could let your photo-obsessed girlfriend use the camera or connect her phone and post straight from her camera roll. The Polaroid Now+ comes with five creative lens covers that give you more ways to be creative.
g) A belt bag that can be used at races, in the woods, and other places.
The Patagonia hip pack can meet her needs whether she wants a bag that can handle rough use or a trendy style that is dressed down. It is one of our favorite belt wallets. It is made from recycled materials and comes in different colors. The strap can be adjusted to fit different body types and ways of carrying.
h) A speaker that she can carry around with her.
She will like the JBL Go 3 Portable Speaker if she doesn’t want to give up sound quality or room. The Bluetooth speaker comes in different colors, is waterproof, is 3.4 inches long at its longest point, and has a hole in the middle that makes it easy to connect to a belt or bag. The normal price is around $50, but we’ve seen deals of up to 50% off during shopping holidays.
i) This is a cheap expensive watch
Breda makes high-end watches that cost just below or slightly above $200, and we love how they look for the price. The band on this type is made of stainless steel, and the case is covered in 18K gold.
j) A small nameplate necklace
Nameplate bracelets are always in style, so this one is sure to become a wardrobe essential. You can pick her real name, a nickname, or even her favorite place.
k) A card game to get to know each other better
The famous Instagram account We’re Not Strangers made this card game to help people with different views, levels of contact, and levels of reflection get closer to each other. Not only is it a card game you’ve never played before, but it’s also a serious activity that you and your girlfriend can enjoy together.
l) A cookbook with dinner ideas for movie nights
Dinner and a movie have always gone well together. The “Eat What You Watch Cookbook” can help you plan future date nights. It has 41 recipes that were used in movies, like hazelnut sorbet from “Roman Holiday” and double-decker New York-style pizza from “Saturday Night Fever.” You can get these ready for movie night.
m) A big picture of a favorite memory
Artifact Uprising makes really nice prints that don’t cost a lot of money, and they also make gifts that look like they cost a lot more. For $20 or more, you can get a print of one of their best photos on archival fine art paper. You can also buy thoughtful greeting cards for as little as $1.45 each. You can also make a picture book with a color collection for $22, a photo set for $9, or a custom wooden clipboard calendar for $30.
n) A pass that lets you into a bunch of small exercise classes
Boutique fitness classes that are too expensive can make trying new workouts less appealing, whether we want to change things up or find out what we like best.
ClassPass solves both issues. The price is fair, and members can access a huge library of tasks with small group sizes. If your friend or family member is getting back into shape after working out at home for more than a year, you should buy them a gift card that they can use whenever they want.
o) Sweet treats from a well-known New York City restaurant
If your partner loves sweets, you can send her Milk Bar, which will bring its famously rich cakes, cookies, and treats right to her door.
p) A pleasant set of bath salts
You can give your girlfriend this fancy bath set with two kinds of soaking salts and a coconut milk bath if you love her but don’t like seeing her tired. You can choose from eucalyptus, sandalwood, cassis, and Haitian vetiver as the scent character.
