50 Best-Friend Gifts Worthy of Your Favorite Person
Your friendship may be priceless—but a gift can’t hurt
They say it’s the thought that counts, but the gift is pretty important, too. When it comes to selecting a best-friend gift, the ones they’ll cherish are the ones that show just how well you know them.
Luxury jewelry or sweet snacks, designer tote bags or sought-after clothing, perfume or candles—plenty of objects can show your deep appreciation for your best friend. It’s all about the personal touch, according to potter and designer Jonathan Adler. “Start by thinking about their personal brand—and yes, these days everyone’s a brand,” Adler advises. “Are they a fab fashionista who’s into tea? A haute hippie who can’t get enough games? A preppy prince who’s always sipping a G&T? Give them the best, most outré version of whatever they’re interested in.” I personally love a sentimental jewelry gift, like a customized locket or the delicate earrings your friend has been eyeing. Alternatively, a sharable experience between you and your best friend can strengthen and celebrate your bond. Think: a bottle of Champagne to pop together or even a jet ski for a beach adventure.
Ahead, I’ve found 5o best-friend gifts to get you started. Your friendship knows no bounds, and now neither do your gifting abilities.
