For the girlfriend who always needs a sweet treat, this inexpensive personal ice cream maker is a fun way to make sure you always have an answer to her late-night cravings.

Away The Bigger Carry-On Flex

Away makes the best carry-on bag for packing more. The Bigger Flex unzips to add a significant amount of extra space for carting home all your treasures…or fitting in a few extra outfit options. Like all Away bags, the Flex comes in a suite of fun colors and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Read our full Away Flex review for more on what we love about this bag.

Malin + Goetz Cannabis Candle

Malin + Goetz's internet-famous cannabis candle has a deliciously grassy scent and deep brownish-green wax. Don't worry; it smells nothing like its skunky namesake, but if your partner is less adventurous we also recommend the Strawberry, Tomato, or Bergamot scents in our guide to the best candles.

The Woobles Beginners Crochet Kit, Fred the Dinosaur

Each crochet kit from The Woobles comes with everything you need to make a crochet stuffed animal (called "amigurumi" in the crochet world). Along with yarn, a hook, and all the extra bits, you'll get step-by-step instructions and links to videos to help you along the way. It's a great way to pick up a new hobby, especially for the girlfriend who loves crafts and cute things.

Ember Mug 2

If your girlfriend takes forever to sip their tea or coffee, get them this ingenious mug that keeps their beverage for as long as it takes for them to drink it all. It's also app-controlled, so they can use their phone to find the right temperature and presets.

Parachute Classic Turkish Cotton Robe

We think the Parachute Classic Turkish Cotton Robe is the best robe on the market. It's soft, fluffy, and absorbent like a towel. It's also got nice deep pockets and a secure waist tie.

Polaroid Now+ White (9062) Bluetooth Connected Instant Film Camera

For the girlfriend who loves snapping pics, give her the option of either using the camera or connecting her phone and directly printing from her camera roll. The Polaroid Now+ also comes with five creative lens filters to unlock even more artistic possibilities.

Bearaby Cotton Napper

Weighted blankets can encourage relaxation and improve sleep, and Bearaby's Cotton Napper is stylish enough to be thrown over any couch or bed. With multiple colors and weights for the ideal fit for her and her home, it's one of the best weighted blankets we've tested — and it's machine washable. At $200–300 depending on weight, it's one of the pricier gifts in this guide; for a more budget-friendly option, we recommend the Luna Weighted Blanket, which is typically under $100 and sometimes goes on sale for less than $50.

Recess Date Night Pickleball Set

The best gift for your girlfriend is something you can do or experience together. This colorful set from Recess allows you to get in on pickleball trend in style and will make for many fun future date nights together.

Apple AirPods Pro (3rd Gen)

We love Apple's AirPods Pro for Apple users. They're no-hassle, work with Apple products, have decent sound and noise cancellation, are water-resistant, have a wireless charging case, and feel more comfortable than standard AirPods. You'll find more wireless earbuds we love here.

Cuyana System Tote

She'll happily replace her canvas tote for this sleek, sturdy leather one from Cuyana. It comes in a few neutral shades and can be customized with a crossbody strap or matching laptop case.

Mejuri Signet Ring

Whether she's a jewelry minimalist or has an ever-growing collection of baubles, there's always room for a sweet and simple signet ring. This one from Mejuri can be engraved with one initial for free. Emblazon it with her initial, yours, your pet's– there are so many options to make this gift feel personal.

Brooklinen Luxe Hardcore Sheet Bundle

Brooklinen is one of our favorite companies, point-blank. We think they make the best sateen sheets, and many of the Insider Reviews team uses Brooklinen on their own beds.

The Luxe Hardcore Sheet Bundle comes in plenty of colors and patterns, and you can mix and match them to suit your taste. Grab a gift card if you want to give her more freedom. If you opt for a sheet bundle, she'll receive a core sheet set (fitted, flat, two pillowcases), duvet cover, and two extra pillowcases in a soft, smooth 480-thread-count weave.

Codenames Duet

Test your communication skills with Codenames Duet, a cooperative board game where you direct each other to the target words with only minimal clues. The game is incredibly easy to pick up and endlessly replayable. It's sure to make for many laughs during date nights in.

Popflex Pirouette Skort

If she's a Swiftie, she'll instantly recognize this twirly workout skort, which Taylor has been spotted wearing numerous times in the past year. We love Popflex activewear for cute, romantic styles that still have all the technical elements you want in workout gear. Read our full Popflex review for more styles we love and check out our guide to the best gifts for Swifties.

Shark FlexStyle Air Drying & Styling System

The Dyson Airwrap is notoriously hard to obtain, whether because of stock issues or its $600 price tag, so our Style & Beauty team recommends the Shark FlexStyle as the closest multi-styling tool on the market. At half the price of the Airwrap, it's still more of a splurge, but well worth it for a girlfriend who's interested in upping her at-home hairstyling game.

Milk Bar Treats

If your girlfriend has a sweet tooth, send her Milk Bar — the company delivers its iconic and decadent cakes, cookies, and truffles to her doorstep.

Driftaway Coffee Explorer Box

Level up her daily cup with this sampler pack of five coffees from around the world. Single-origin beans create a dynamic flavor profile for each sip. If she loves a certain option from the sampler, Driftaway also has a monthly subscription to get it shipped regularly.

Caraa Sport makes some of the most functional and best-looking gym bags on the market. This one can transition from a tote to a backpack by adding straps. It also has a hidden shoe compartment and a waterproof and antimicrobial lining. You can read our full review of this bag here.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

If your partner always complains of chapped lips (especially in the winter), this bestselling lip mask is a great, low-key gift that will leave their lips feeling smooth and nourished come morning. 

Atlas Tea Club Subscription

This subscription sends your girlfriend single-origin teas from the best tea-growing regions in the world for six months. She'll get two delicious options sent to her home each month.

Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment

There's a reason Rhode's Peptide Lip Treatment has been all the rage lately. While it looks like a gloss, it works more like a nourishing balm with peptides for plumping and shea butter for hydrating her pout.

We're Not Really Strangers Card Game

This card game, from the popular Instagram account We're Not Really Strangers, is designed to enhance connections between people with different levels: perceptions, connection, and reflection. Not only is it a card game you haven't played before, but it's also a thoughtful activity you can enjoy with your girlfriend.

Catbird Tiniest Name Necklace

Nameplate necklaces consistently stay in style, so this piece is bound to become an everyday staple. You can pick her name, nickname, or even just a place she loves.

Logitech Lift Wireless Ergonomic Mouse

If she works from home, an ergonomic mouse is a thoughtful gift to help lessen wrist pain from repetitive clicking. This stylish wireless option places the user's hand in a "natural handshake position" to put less pressure on their wrist, and has customizable buttons to best fit their workflow. To really transform her WFH setup, Logitech also has matching mechanical keyboards in fun colorways.

Check out our guide to the best computer mouse.

UGG Tasman Slippers

Ugg slippers are iconic, and for good reason. The brand's shearling-lined footwear is revered for being seriously durable and supremely comfortable. The Tasman Slippers are a cult-favorite for the grippy sole that makes them well-suited for indoor and outdoor wear, and they look super cute too.

Dagne Dover Hunter Toiletry Bag

Dagne Dover is quickly becoming one of the best women's handbag companies to know, and its toiletry pouches are a great and relatively affordable gift. The small size holds a handful of go-to toiletries, and the large should have enough space for all of the grooming essentials.

Autumn Creek Press "3-Minute Morning Journal: Intentions & Reflections For a Powerful Life"

For the girlfriend that's obsessed with reading self-help books and creating an airtight morning routine, this book is a thoughtful gift that works to improve her mood and boost positive thinking. This journal features a gratitude practice that will push her to recognize what she's grateful for, discover how she can move closer to her goals and bring joy to others, and at the end of the day reflect on it all.

The Nori Press

If she takes great pride in her sense of style and loves nothing more than putting together an outfit for any occasion, give her a gift that will help her take better care of her clothing. The Nori Press is a compact, easy-to-use gadget that's a steamer and iron wrapped into one– and it's a gamechanger for ensuring her clothing is always wrinkle-free. 

Dash Mini Waffle Maker

Surprise her with a homemade breakfast using this small but mighty waffle maker. We found it the best waffle maker if you are short on cabinet space. It even comes in a version that makes heart-shaped waffles if you want to ramp up the romance.

Printfresh Bagheera Long Sleep Set

Getting ready for bed is always more fun in a matching pajama set. These 100% organic poplin PJs from Printfresh are not only seriously comfortable, but seriously stylish. We love that they also have pockets, because everyone needs pockets.

SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore

Spending $150 on a face cream may sound unnecessary, but isn't that what gifting is all about? Treat your favorite skincare lover to this jar of ultra-nourishing goodness; a little goes a long way so it will last them months and is sure to make them feel radiant.

Lisa Frank x CASETiFY Phone Cases

If your girlfriend is stuck in the '90's, give her a gift that takes her back to the days of boy bands, Britney, and butterfly clips. CASTETiFY's Lisa Frank Collection, with a variety of phone cases boasting the brand's bold, whimsical style, is an easy way to infuse some 90's magic into her everyday routine.

Patagonia Ultralight Black Hole Mini Hip Pack

Whether she's looking for a bag that can survive some rough wear or aiming for a trendy dressed-down look, Patagonia's hip pack can rise to the occasion. It's one of our favorite belt bags, made from recycled fabric and available in a variety of colors, and with an adjustable strap to suit diverse body types and ways to wear it.

Bala Bangles

For the girlfriend with a passion for all things fitness, Bala Bangles are a beautiful and practical accessory. The light, weighted bangles can be wrapped around her wrists or ankles to add an extra burn while she moves through yoga flows, takes leisurely walks, or practices pilates. Bala Bangles come in ½-, 1-, and 2-pound options, in a range of monochromatic hues.

Made In 8-Inch Chef Knife

Your girlfriend keeps you well-fed with her affinity for whipping up restaurant-quality meals at home, so help make her kitchen setup feel restaurant-quality too with a few cookware and prepware upgrades, like this Made In Chef Knife. It's razor-sharp and a workhorse for chopping, slicing, dicing, mincing, and more. The option to engrave it with her name or a small message makes it all the more giftable.

Baggu Standard Baggu

For aspiring eco-warriors who want to say goodbye to plastic bags for good to Mary Poppins-like folks who are always stocked with anything you could think of, there's the Standard Baggu. This small, but mighty reusable bag can hold up to 50 pounds of stuff without faltering, thanks to its durable ripstop nylon construction. To boot, its machine washable, can be folded into a small pouch that can fit in your pocket, and comes in a variety of fun colors and patterns.

Crosley Voyager Bluetooth Record Player

This record player has a vintage look and modern features, like bluetooth-compatibility so she can listen to all of her favorite vinyls right on her phone. It also works as a speaker so she can blast her Spotify playlists through the device too.

Cuyana Leather Jewelry Case

Keeping track of tiny and delicate jewelry is difficult — but jewelry cases are a pretty and useful solution. This is a thoughtful and personalized gift, especially if you've gotten your girlfriend jewelry in the past, or plan to in the future. It's made from premium leather, comes in many colors, and can be monogrammed with her initials. Cuyana is a cool leather bag startup she may have already heard of. 

JBL Go 3 Portable Speaker

If she doesn't like sacrificing space or sound quality, she'll love the JBL Go 3 Portable Speaker. Available in a variety of colors, the Bluetooth speaker is waterproof, measures 3.4 inches on its longest side, and has a loop that makes it easy to attach to a bag or belt. It's typically around $50, but keep an eye peeled during shopping holidays, when we've seen deals as high as 50% off.

Breda Esther Square Metal Watch

Breda makes luxury watches that are usually just under or slightly over the $200 price range, and we love how they look for the price. This model comes in an 18K gold-plated case and stainless steel band.

Artifact Uprising Large Format Prints

Artifact Uprising makes luxury prints at accessible prices — and they make especially thoughtful gifts that look like they should cost much more. Get one of their favorite photos printed on archival fine art paper for $20 and up, or thoughtful cards for as little as $1.16 per custom card. You can also make a color series photo book for $22, a set of prints for $9, and a personalized calendar on a handcrafted wood clipboard for $35.

Maude Tub Kit No. 3

If you love your girlfriend but hate to see her burn out, you can treat her to this luxe bath set, which comes with two types of soaking salts and a coconut milk bath. You can choose from three different scent profiles — this one has notes of eucalyptus, sandalwood, cassis, and Haitian vetiver.

Imperia Pasta Machine

Bring the pasta maker and the fixings to make a delicious meal together. It's relatively easy to get the hang of, and you can enjoy quality time with the bonus of incredible ravioli or fettuccine on the other end of it. 

Allbirds Women's Wool Runners

The classic Wool Runners make a great gift for the uninitiated, they're durable and fit for anything from long walks to tough workouts. You can find our full review of the Runners here.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

If your girlfriend is a reader, we'd suggest looking at Amazon's Kindle Paperwhite — it's one of our favorite e-readers on the market. With its built-in adjustable light and waterproof rating, it's perfect for reading environments indoors or outdoors, day or night. If she loves a nice, relaxing bath, pair this with a caddy, bath bombs, and a glass of wine for a relaxing night in that you've already taken care of.

Leon & George Silver Evergreen

Leon & George is a San Francisco startup that will send beautiful plants — potted in stylish, minimalist pots — to your girlfriend's door. All she has to do is to occasionally add water. Flowers are wonderful, but houseplants have a much longer shelf life, and most of Leon & George's options are very easy to care for. 

We'd also recommend checking out Bloomscape for small plant trios under $70.
