If your girlfriend’s love language is receiving gifts, then you likely know how important it is to get her the perfect present. Or, maybe gift-giving just has never been your forte, and you’re trying to up the ante this holiday season. Well, I’ll be the first to tell you that the best gift ideas for girlfriends are the ones she can tell you put some thought into. Word of advice: Ditch the typical flowers or chocolates and opt for something that lets her know you’ve been paying attention every time she talks about her interests and hobbies.

For example, if she’s been debating whether she should try out that new pilates studio down the street, a brand-new yoga mat or a new pair of Lululemon leggings could be a good present.

Thinking about how she’s been feeling lately is also a great way to stir up a few ideas. Has she been open about feeling overwhelmed or stressed at work? A little heat therapy plushie or essential oil diffuser could be just the thing to help her unwind and boost her spirits.

Ready to wow her with the best Christmas gift? Here’s a list of the 45 best gift ideas for girlfriends you can shop right now (and hide until it’s time for her to unwrap it!). Happy shopping and gift-giving!
