The season of gift-giving is here! While we’re all gearing up to spend Christmas with our loved ones, sharing delicious food and creating special memories, one thing still rings true: gift shopping is tough!

Women, more so than men, are extremely particular about what they want. This can be pretty daunting when gift shopping, because who wants to accidentally get someone a gift they hate?

When you’re on the hunt, keep these points in mind:

1. Think about their personalities and what makes them unique, and look for a gift that matches their energy.
2. Have they mentioned anything in passing? Tap into the memory bank and unearth old conversations and texts.
3. Are they more practical or sentimental? This will help you greatly.
4. Make sure whatever you buy shows them you love and appreciate them.

With that being said, here are some gift ideas for girlfriends – partners and besties.
