No pressure at all, it’s just a gift for the person who might as well be your twin from birth, the one you’d give the world to if you could! Believe me, I know the struggle. As a shopping editor, I’ve learned that the best gift for your best friend is sentimental and heart-warming, something that feels personal and maybe even reflective of your friendship—goofy, wild, or just sweet. Bonus points if it’s functional, too! I know, those are a lot of boxes to check off…

Whether they're into astrology, love hosting, or are the ultimate cozy queen, there’s something here for everyone. Just saying, my bestie is definitely getting the personalized cocktail book and towel warmer from me!
