14 Gift Ideas For Last Minute Shoppers

The holidays can be a very stressful time. There are so many gifts to buy and so little time. Sometimes finding a creative and thoughtful gift can be impossible. These are some gifts that are relatively easy to get a hold of, but that will also seem like you spent time picking out. Whether you are shopping for friends, family, or your significant other, these gifts are sure to please.

1. A candle.

These are not just for women… men enjoy musky scents as well.

2. A hand written letter.

While everyone appreciates heartfelt words, your older relatives will eat these up.

3. A CD from their favorite artist.

4. A gift card to their favorite store.

While picking out something for them is better, they will truly appreciate the fact that you know where they like to shop.

5. A cherished picture of you all together.

6. A soft blanket and their favorite movie.

The makings of a perfect movie night.

7. Brownies, cookies, cake.

Anyone would love to receive their favorite dessert.

8. Perfume/Cologne/Body Spray.

Depending on their preferences and your price range, this can be a great gift. Everyone likes to smell nice!

9. A Tervis or cup with their favorite team or college’s logo.

10. Makeup.

This is more for girls, but you cannot go wrong getting a girl a new eye shadow palette.

11. A wallet.

Most people would love to have a new wallet even if it is an inexpensive one.

12. A portable phone charger.

These can be lifesavers and most people won’t buy them for themselves.

13. Take them out to a nice dinner.

Treating someone to dinner to catch up can be a great, heartfelt gift.

14. A gift card to Netflix or Spotify.

This can either get them started with an account or help with future payments.

If you waited until the last minute to go shopping for presents, these are some great gift ideas!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
