Hi there. Let's have a talk, shall we? You're likely reading this right now because oh sh*t, your girlfriend's birthday/ Valentine's Day / your anniversary / a random exciting event for her is approaching. And, instead of thinking that you yourself can come up with the best gift for your girlfriend on your own, you did the smart thing and clicked on an article created and written by girlfriends. Congratulations. You're doing the right thing.
Let's have a quick and honest conversation: your girlfriend will never not want a unique gift. Even if she says she doesn't, she does. So us girlfriends (current or former — we've all got experience) gathered up a wide variety of 60 gift options ranging from super cheap to super luxe that your girlfriend will love. These include things like designer fragrances, comfy heated blankets, and trendy shoes.
These also include things like date dice and romantic date cards — these gifts are for you. Do not give your girlfriend dinner-deciding dice and expect her to be happy. These are to help you plan a gift or date night to then show off to her. We'll repeat this one more time: If you see a cool date idea template or memory book in here and think, "Gee, she'll love filling this out on her own" you are wrong. She will love it if you fill this out on your own and then gift it to her. Because, honestly, the best gift for any girlfriend is their partner putting in any amount of effort to make her feel special.
Now, check out all of our amazing gifts for girlfriends below and know that we are proud of you for not only doing this research but also spending the time to curate something amazing for her.
