Gift Ideas for Her (No Matter Her Style or Taste)
Here are some gifts for her that she may not even know she wanted until she actually has them in her life. Whether she's a foodie, a yoga lover or a bit of a bookworm, here's a selection of fantastic gift ideas she's sure to love.
Foodie Gifts for the Woman Who Loves to Cook
Here's a collection of 5 gifts that are perfect for the foodie that loves to hang out in her kitchen. And these are especially great gift ideas if she also happens to be eating healthy!
Ceramic Cookware
This ceramic cookware by Caraway is gorgeous! I needed to replace my non-toxic non-stick fry pans and these were my pick. They're free of PTFE, heavy metals, PFOA and other toxic materials, oven-safe to 550 F and you can use them on gas, electric or induction stovetops. Not to mention they come in lots of great colors to match any kitchen. I have the navy blue fry pan and covered sauté pan and they are a dream to cook with.
See my full list of non-toxic cookware swaps here.
Instant Pot
An Instant Pot is a great gift for a foodie that doesn't yet have this gadget in her kitchen. She'll love the versatility of it. You can cook up everything from the perfect hard-boiled eggs to pulled pork in a matter of minutes. Meals become ridiculously quick and easy. So easy that even cooking on the busiest weeknight is fun!
I love my Instant Pot Ultra, but there are a handful of different sizes and models to consider. I would recommend considering only the top 3 options currently on the market.
ButcherBox
This is a gift that keeps on giving. A ButcherBox subscription is the perfect gift for a foodie that values the importance of cooking with high-quality ingredients. No matter whether she prefers beef, chicken, pork or salmon, the wide variety of curated boxes ensures that you'll find the perfect meat delivery choice for her.
While ButcherBox is a subscription service, your order can be paused for up to six months or canceled at any time before the next order is billed. And she gets ultimate flexibility because she's not locked into a particular box or shipping frequency. I'm sure she'll love her deliveries from ButcherBox just as much as I do!
Air Fryer
This kitchen gadget is the perfect option for foodies who occasionally crave a healthier version of traditional deep-fried foods. Right now I'm loving this air fried asparagus soup, but there are plenty of other healthy recipes to try. Everything from chicken wings to dessert! And there are plenty of airfryer accessories available to get even more mileage out of this gift.
I recommend this style air fryer or an oven-style like this one. I have both and recommend choosing which model would be the best gift for her kitchen based on how much counter space is available.
Vitamix
Any foodie will tell you that the beauty in owning a Vitamix is in the versatility that it brings to your kitchen. She'll be able to blend hot soup, create frozen treats, grind coffee, and even make muffin and cookie batters. The Vitamix is basically the Swiss Army knife of the kitchen!
I love my Vitamix because I know the stainless steel blades are designed to handle even the toughest of ingredients. I'm never worried that my blender is going to break. Yes, the Vitamix is an investment piece. But you can feel good knowing that you're gifting a product that's built to last - I've had mine for over 10 years!
Vegetable Spiralizer
This sleek spiralizer is the perfect gift for the foodie, especially if she's following a paleo or vegan lifestyle. She'll be able to whip up all of her favorite veggie pasta dishes in no time! This spiralizer also comes with 4 recipe ebooks, so she'll have plenty of culinary inspiration when she receives her new gift.
This spiralizer stands out among the crowd because of a few key features. With stainless steel blades plus the reinforced BPA-free ABS construction, it's a snap to turn harder root veggies (like turnips or sweet potatoes) into beautiful noodles. It's easy to clean too, so there's no extra work in the kitchen for her.
Gifts for the Woman Who Loves to Stay Active
Here are a couple of my favorite gift ideas for women on the move. While these are both yoga gifts, I definitely use both of these items beyond the yoga studio.
Manduka PRO Yoga and Pilates Mat
This super cushy yoga mat is a great gift for women who love yoga or pilates. Anyone that's exercised on hardwood floors knows that you need an extra thick yoga mat to stay comfortable throughout your workout. This mat's 6mm of high-density cushioning will keep joints safe and feeling supported. I've had mine for years and still love it!
No matter which color you choose (there are lots!), the closed-cell surface makes the mat easy to clean. And the longer length is awesome for anyone that's tall or just likes the extra room for stretching out!
High Waist Outer Pocket Yoga Pants
We gals love our leggings, so your girl is probably in the same boat. Especially if she also happens to love yoga. But the lack of pockets in most leggings can be a little annoying! Luckily, she can keep her iPhone on hand with the pockets in these leggings. And the 4-way stretch fabric is completely opaque. No worries about show-through here!
Whether she loves a full-length legging or prefers a capri-style, there's sure to be a cut and color combination that perfectly suits her style.
The Perfect Gifts for the Booklover
If she loves to curl up with a good book than these are the gifts for you. She'll love that you've made her favorite pastime even easier and more convenient with these reading gifts.
Kindle Paperwhite
This is the eReader to gift if she loves reading. Switching to a Kindle has been a great move – I love that the surface looks like paper (no glare) and I don't have to carry a bunch of books when I'm traveling. I can practically carry my entire digital library in my purse! And the new Kindle includes an adjustable front light, so reading at night just got a lot easier.
I also love how easy it is to find the books I want quickly. Because your Kindle is wi-fi enabled and linked to your Amazon account, it's as easy as choosing the next book from your reading list. No computer necessary. The book gets sent directly to your Kindle library. Very easy and convenient!
Kindle Unlimited Membership
This is a great gift to pair alongside a Kindle or on its own. She can read or listen wherever she happens to be. And she doesn't even need to own a Kindle to use this membership. All she needs is the free Kindle app for Apple or Android!
The Kindle unlimited membership gives you access to over 1 million books and thousands of audiobooks on whatever device you choose to use. You're basically gifting a ginormous library at her fingertips. What could be better than that?
A Gift for the Woman Who Has Everything
Last but certainly not least, one final gift idea for the woman who has everything. Difficult to buy for? Yes, absolutely. But certainly not impossible...
Clean Wine Box
When all else fails, why not give the gift of vino? Thrive Market's artisanal selection of sustainably sourced wines is a great place to look. They offer a variety of curated wine packs of organic or biodynamically farmed reds, whites, reds and whites, as well as value bundles. They also offer many half-case or full-case options. Their wine selection is curated by a Master Sommelier and there are lots of great choices to choose from.
Thrive Market's clean wine collection features wines made with as little manipulation as possible, meaning your her wine will be free of sugar, skip the flash pasteurization and contain only low amounts of sulfites. Feel good knowing that you're gifting delicious clean wines without the 60 or so not-so-nice additives and chemicals that typically end up in regular store-bought wines.
