Written By The Style Whisperer for THE DESIGN COLLECTIVE
From holding your hair back when you’re sick to spending hours on the phone talking about everything—movies, boys and even politics, if there is one person who has always been there for you, it’s your best friend. Once a year, a day comes around that lets you thank them for being with you through thick and thin.
As Friendship Day is this weekend, don’t forget to celebrate and appreciate your #1 pal. Whether they love to cook, are obsessed with clothes, collect jewellery to enjoy DIY projects, our list of gift options will show them you care and are thinking of them.
For the fashionista
If your friend’s style game is always on point, then adding a statement piece to her extensive wardrobe is the most thoughtful gift you can give her. From pretty dresses to traditional drapes to comfy separates, there is something for every occasion to pick from.
For the jewellery lover
It’s widely known that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but did you know that applies to any jewellery? If they can’t get enough rings on their fingers or have a collection of pendants that keeps growing, then gifting them these precious jewels are going to make their day, and possibly their year.
For the foodie
Does your friend take food very seriously? From the way it is cooked to the manner in which it is plated, if she values each and every aspect of dining, then the options below will make her unbelievably happy.
For the planner
Even for the most organized friend, life can get hectic. To help them stay on track, why not surprise them with a diary or notebook where they can write down their daily to-do list?
For the stresser
Stress is an unavoidable part of life. But if your bff has been going through a stressful time in her life, then we recommend some soothing scented candles to bring about a sense of calm to her home.
For the skin care lover
Caring for your skin is very important, especially during these difficult times. If your friend is amongst those who follows a strict beauty routine or has been thinking of developing one, then we can’t think of a better gift than products that make her feel good and look good.
For the fitness-obsessed
Whether running, yoga, pilates or weights is their workout of choice, they need quality activewear that does not hinder any movement. Gift them a new sports bra, cute shorts or a pair of leggings to encourage them on their fitness journey.
