A planner is a great gift for the girls that love to stay organized. We created this planner for the Type A girl who wants everything you can possibly have in a planner. Highly recommend!

Milk Bar is one of my favorite things to send my long distance best friends. You can get so many things delivered through them and they treats still taste amazing by the time they get there!
Also, Milk Bar just has the best cookies and cakes. Other baked goods I love sending are from Levaine Bakery and Baked By Melissa. Definitely a unique gift but a crowd pleaser!

If your best friend is a travel lover, gifting a personalized luggage tag and passport holder is such a cute gift. Having a luggage tag really elevates the traveling experience and adding a personalized touch is even better!

If you can afford it, surprise your best friends with a surprise trip! You don't have to pay for it all obviously but suggest somewhere and treat them with a nice dinner on you or paying for a portion of it!
Experiences are always way better than material items, in my opinion. This would create so many great memories with your besties.
19. Perfume Set
Girls love their perfumes but they can get pricey. I love gift sets for more expensive items because you can try out a range of products without having to pay full price.
This allows your best friend to explore a variety of scents and then if she loves one, she can purchase the full size!

I personally have not read this yet, but my friends that have rave about it. If you're best friend loves to read, inspiring books are perfect!
27. Travel Jewelry Holder
Any girl can relate to this, but the most frustrating thing is traveling and opening up your baggage to see all of your jewelry in one large knot.
An item that most girls don't own is a travel jewelry holder. But it's definitely one of those things that we don't know we need until we actually have it. This one is amazing and pretty inexpensive! Trust me, this will be an amazing gift that she'll use religiously.

39. Perfume
Perfume is an amazing gift idea for any girl. Get her a refill of her signature scent, or opt for a new scent that reminds you of her. Travel sizes are also a more affordable way to gift perfume if you're on a tighter budget!
40. Claw Clips
The big claw clips are BACK. I love this trend because it's so cute but also practical. It makes throwing up your hair as easy as it gets!
This set is superrr affordable and comes with a few different colors. You could even split it up and give one to each of your best friends!
41. Simple Ring
If your best friend wears rings, a high quality ring is a really great gift. Since rings are constantly being washed and touched, more than other jewelry would, they can tarnish a lot faster.
Having high quality rings that won't get ruined easily is something women definitely look for. This is something she'll love and appreciate so much!
