Personally, I don't need a special occasion to spoil my besties. It can be a random Tuesday in July and I’ll feel like giving them a just-because gift for being an amazing person. Anybody else? But I'm glad Galentine's Day exists—the unofficial February 13 holiday that celebrates women's friendships—because it allows me to go all out and show them how much they mean to me. You can express your love to your BFFs in a ton of ways (simple or grand), but I gotta say, these unique Galentine's Day gift ideas are the best gifts you can give your soul sisters who have been by your side through the good, bad, and ugly.

Since you can't give them the world (even though they deserve it for all the yap sessions they've endured), these cute and thoughtful gifts will go above and beyond. From cozy gifts like a hooded blanket and pretty bow slippers to self-care gifts like a cordless heating pad and a head wrap made for hangovers, these gifts will tell them all they need to know about your appreciation for them...even if you guys hug once a year. But if you wanna go the quirky route (where my funny girls at?!), get them an emotional support pickle. You'll be thanking me later, trust.

Whether you're hosting an official Galentine's Day party/Secret Cupid exchange or having a lowkey dinner with your closest gal pal, these are the best Galentine's Day gifts a girlie could ask for—coming from a girlie herself, so you know they’re top-notch! You'll find it all below, from viral beauty products to cool tech gadgets.

One might think the coziest of cozy gifts would be a blanket, but I'd say it's a blanket they can wear. Yep, you're looking at a blanket with a hood, sleeves, and a pocket big enough to store their phone, snacks, and the TV remote.

When times are tough and they don't have you IRL to cheer them up, they can look to this sweet, pickle figurine to boost their spirits.

There's no relationship like the one between a girl and her emotional support water bottle. But, IMO, the viral Owala is a must-have out of all the options out there. Why? Enter: the built-in handle, push-button opening, leakproof design that'll keep their drink cold for up to 24 hours, and the fact that it has a straw and spout.
