8. Herb and Crisp Thyme Candle

Francesca's

Candles are every girl's weakness. It's something they always want but don't always want to buy for themselves. To be safe, get a neutral scented candle focusing on herbs and natural remedies rather than the overproduced Bath and Body Works candle scents. / $14

9. Iris Card Case

Last year I received a french press for Christmas and I think I've used it almost every day since. It's a gift that keeps on giving. It has taught me to be intentional with my coffee consumption instead of drinking cup after cup from a Keurig. Throw in a nice bag of coffee and you're set with a great gift! / $20

11. Knit Texting Gloves

Urban Outfitters

This gift could be paired with a scarf or given alone. Like I said with the scarf before, a cozy gift like this is not excluded from your friends in warmer climates if they have any scheduled trips to colder places soon. / $18

12. LA TINTA Journals, Set of 3

Anthropologie

Journals are some of the best gifts you can give someone. Some use them for school, others use them as diaries – Regardless, the list of possibilities is endless. / $16

If I got this present, I would be so excited. It's classy, unique and functional for those who are ramen or noodle advocates. / $20

22. Velvet Glasses Case

Anthropologie

If the person you are buying a gift for is notorious for losing or scratching their glasses, this is the perfect present for them. I always keep a case in my car to switch from my eyeglasses to sunglasses without damaging them, so you can suggest the same to them too! / $20

23. Who's Most Likely To Game
