Gift Guide #2 is here, focusing on gift ideas for her. By “her,” we mean anyone you know who might like these gifts. Unfortunately, “Gifts for People” doesn’t work as a search title, and we want “people” to find our blog, so we are forced into gender stereotypes ;)! This year, we’ve focused on gift ideas for anyone who loves a good hobby, the constant traveller, and indulgent gifts. Be it for a friend, family member, co-worker, or party host, we have you covered! Be sure to click the links to the items you love below, some items in this post are still on pre-holiday sale!
And remember, self-gifting is highly encouraged! Stay tuned for our next gift guide, “Gift Ideas for Him”.
Happy gifting!
The most adorable dollhouse vignettes at Bergdorf Goodman for the holidays from House of Mirth Miniatures.
Gifts for The Hobbyist
Why we’ve never done a gift section dedicated to finding a new hobby (or picking up an old favorite) is impossible to answer. It’s such a good gift idea! This Living Art Succulent DIY Kit is perfect for the gardener who’s forced indoors for the cold winter months. And since Mahjong is having its moment, this Mahjong House Tile Set is an aesthetically pleasing splurge gift, or these Lucky Mahjong Socks might be a preferable budget-friendly option for the Mahjong lover in your life. Do you know a Mom who finds it impossible to keep track of photos? Help her out with this Printworks Mom Photo Album and, most importantly, a free, relaxing afternoon to fill it up.
Lani has recently taken on a hobby of restoring her old dollhouse. She stumbled upon the House of Mirth Miniatures display at Bergdorf Goodman last month, and the items are the miniature fashions, et al, of her dreams. Unfortunately, they’re only available to purchase in person, but you must check out their Instagram for good measure—and miniature adorableness.

Gifts for On The Go
If you know someone who’s always travelling or continuously on the go, why not gift them something they can use all year long? This NOBL Carry-on: All-in-One suitcase might be the most amazing suitcase we’ve ever seen. It has a purse hook, a built-in charger, and a cupholder that flips out. We repeat, a cupholder. How genius is that?! For some gift ideas to go inside the suitcase, this Mini Crossbody Bag is a fashionable option for the sports aficionado or perpetual concert goer who needs a clear bag, and these Daily Practice Athletic Icon Socks are the perfect packable reminder of the little things your giftee loves while away from home. Be sure to check out all their cute designs!
And for the shopper in your life, we have to mention this Bergdorf Goodman Small Leather Shopping Bag. As I (Lani) say about my favorite things… can you even?! It’s too good.

Little Luxuries
These little luxury gift ideas for her are best used to fill in your gift list. Something unexpected you can give “her” that she might not ask for, but would ultimately love. This 3-Piece Travel Spray Discovery Gift Set is an excellent tiny fragrance set, and this Charlotte Tilbury Gift Set is stuffed full of items that would be an incredible makeup refresh gift. Have an activist in your life who would love a cute charm? This Resist Charm is dainty and perfect for adding to a necklace or bracelet she already owns.
