Not to brag, but I am a great gifter. Particularly at Christmas time, I take real pride in the process of early brainstorm sessions (P.S.: it's late November, what are you waiting for?), curated shortlists and chic gift wrapping. It's earned me a reputation for gifts amongst my friends, one I'll work to keep with every passing birthday, and major milestone. But, hands down, the person I most relish buying presents for is my best friend. A Christmas present to her is a material "thank you" for another year of being my #1 confidant (and always giving a second opinion on new purchases).
Although there is no question that your best gal-pal deserves the world, sticking to your budget is essential to A+ gifting status. So, my gift to you is a sneak peek at the shortlist of presents I'm considering for my very cool, clever and stylish best friend, with options ranging from $25 to $500. You're welcome.

An elevated take on your high school friendship bracelets, gift your BFF an Evil Eye to ward off bad vibes in 2018.
She'll appreciate that you've nailed two trends in one with this chic present a mini bag in an of-the-minute box shape.
Not only is this mini perfect for Christmas lunch (so festive!), but bold red is a major trend for 2018.
Look for jewellery with a twist, like this Swarovski pair that she can wear as a matching set or with the stud for an unmatched statement.
A classic, slinky cami for the slew of summer parties you've both been invited to.
It’s a gift that is as bold, fun and, let's be honest, sarcastic as your best friend is—a grown-up version of the old school friendship necklace.
A decadent blend of rose and calendula botanical beauty oils will bring a little luxury to her evening routine.
