GIFT IDEAS FOR HER

Mariah’s high notes are already ringing in your ears, the giant tubs of chocolates are back in the supermarkets and it’s time to start shopping for your inner circle again. Gift hunting can be a lot, so we (your festive fairy Godmothers) have curated every option you could think of. With thousands of products at your fingertips, ASOS has no lack of women's gift ideas – from clothes to candles, birthday gifts to novelty gifts – and they can double as indulgences for yourself, too. Scroll to find all the Xmas gifts for her you’ll ever need.

We all have someone in our lives with a serious love of glam, and according to her, you can never have enough of it (we agree). Feed her out-out cravings with sequinned dresses, embellished tops and styles oozing it-girl energy.

Candles are the final boss of gifts – ever met someone who doesn’t appreciate a good candle? Junior Editor, Emma sure hasn’t: ‘I don’t think you can ever go wrong with gifting a candle. You can get really aesthetic ones – Laboratory Perfumes and Malin + Goetz are my personal faves – they smell great and they come at so many different price points, so they’re accessible no matter your budget!’

Our Face + Body section is absolutely bursting with ladies' gift ideas, and they're not just for others. Festive season is about treating yourself, too. After all, what hits more than a relaxing pamper session featuring brand-new products? From clinically backed newness to viral brands, you’re bound to find your – or someone else’s – next skincare staple in our lineup.

Gift sets are a no-brainer at this time of year. It's a chance for them to try new products and stock up on their favourites. Plus, they're usually pre-packaged so there's no wrapping necessary (we know that's music to some people's ears). And if you're unsure which gift set to choose, the ASOS Face + Body Advent Calendar covers all bases.

Perhaps the most classic gift option of all time is the perfume. There are so many fruity, floral and festive fragrances out there, and they can be so sentimental. ‘A good scent lasts, so it’s something you know will be treasured for months to come,’ says Writer, Flo. ‘Fragrance always makes a great gift because it’s a splurge people don’t often make for themselves, and Christmas is the time to go all-out on your loved ones.’

If you’re on the hunt for universal gifts that are both functional and versatile, nothing beats a good accessory. For the lover of all things cosy, this chunky ASOS DESIGN scarf will be a hit. Plus, the dopamine-inducing chartreuse shade is key for AW25. And if you're wondering what to get your sister for her birthday or Christmas, keep her love of leopard print alive with this New Era cap.

She may already own a museum-worthy array of bags in different textures, shades and silhouettes, but don’t worry – there's no such thing as having too many. An east-west style by JW Pei will elevate the most casual of looks, while Dragon Diffusion’s Santa Croce bag is a classic created from woven leather. Both timeless styles that she'll never tire of.

If her spirit animal is Miranda Priestly, she never leaves the house without lip gloss, and her shoe collection is her Roman Empire – then your gift idea should be obvious... shoes! And no brand does footwear like Topshop. The only obstacle you might face is discovering her shoe size.

A pair of earrings or a necklace is exactly what to get mums for Christmas. They appreciate the finer things, like a sparkling stack of Swarovski crystals that catch the light just right. These dainty pieces are just dripping with elegance.

 

Operating under a tight budget? Look below for gift ideas that fit within your limits, whether it's £10 or £100. After all, it’s the thought that counts. 

If you’re looking for symbols of sisterhood, nothing compares to items that match. A gold bangle for you, a silver bangle for her. The baby pink I.AM.GIA Blare co-ord for you, the hot pink one for her. Cringe is a social construct – bring back PDF (public displays of friendship!).

As long as you know they’ll appreciate it, anything can be a thoughtful gift. If your girlfriend wrestled unreliable wi-fi and a thousand-long queue to snag Oasis tickets, we’re sure she’ll treasure a band T-shirt. If you know your sister appreciates her alone time, a candle she can burn during a bath is an easy win.
