This holiday season, we’ve found the gifts that feel great to get and even better to give. Shop Well-Received, our collection of editor-approved holiday gift guides.

Gift-giving can be super fun (it’s a chance to show off how well you know your mates, duh) but it can also be a tad stressful if you're the type of person who wants to get their gifts *spot on*.

With 2024’s end-of-year festivities coming around a lot quicker than we all expected, we’ve officially hit prime time to start gift shopping. Now, take it from us: the trick to buying the right gift is planning ahead of time and comparing your options online. Whether you’re shopping for the practical pal who prefers useful gifts, eyeballing beauty sets that offer real bang for your buck or strategising your buys based on various budgets, we’ve got a gift guide for every niche.

When it comes to the bestie who always turns up in the most stylish outfits, is on top of all the latest trends and is, quite frankly, a little hard to shop for, here are 35 gift ideas for every budget, from £20 to £500.

If you’ve been searching for gifts that only look expensive, we’ve got you. From fun bag charms to statement phone cases, these picks will elevate your giftee’s everyday style in small but significant ways.

A step up but not yet breaking the bank, these under-£50 gifts feel extra special to gift. Think, extra soft cashmere socks, delicate hair accessories inspired by their favourite food, and phone charms that are just as practical as they are stylish.

With the slightly roomier budget of £100, you’re in a new ballpark of ‘it’ items and viral fashion faves. This includes Damson Madder’s gorgeous pyjama sets, Dora Larsen’s delicately embroidered lingerie, and BAR Jewellery's cool, asymmetric pendants.

With a budget of £250, you can gift luxe takes on everyday staples, like Aloha's whimsical crochet trainers, Tekla’s sumptuous robe (perfect for your recipient's ‘everything shower’), or Coach’s bestselling Brooklyn Shoulder Bag, which works for every occasion.

Jumping up to £500, you’re in the world of designer gifts. At the very top of our own wish lists are leather goods from Polene and Arket, and heirloom-worthy accessories from Heaven Mayhem and Jennifer Meyer. Proving that top-tier designers can also still have fun? Sleeper’s feather-trimmed pyjamas, Alice + Olivia’s Beatles collab, and Staud’s zodiac beaded bags (shop your giftee’s sign for a personalised touch).
