Gift Ideas for Your Best Friend That Say “You’re Special”

What to give your best friend for a birthday, New Year or just because: bright mohair cardigans, matching socks and cosy gift sets.

Gift Ideas for Your Best Friend That Say “You’re Special”

In short

  • With a friend you can be bolder: bright colours, unusual shapes.
  • Try “matching” gifts: the same socks in different colours for both of you.
  • A cardigan in her signature colour goes straight to the heart.
  • A memorable gift = an object + a shared memory.

A best friend knows you better than anyone. Her gift can be bold, warm and a little playful.

Ideas

A bold colour

  • Emerald: green with ruffle sleeves.
  • Turquoise: a shimmering turquoise oversized knit.
  • Coral: for the one who is always the centre of attention.

Matching gifts

Mohair & silk ruffle socks in different colours, one pair for her, one for you. Blue + nude make a perfect pair for photos.

A cosy set

Socks + a candle + the book you both wanted to read.

Choosing the colour

What is her signature colour? Think of her best photos. Cheat sheet: How to choose a knitwear colour.

Add a memory

Tuck a photo from your first trip together, or a card with an inside joke, into the box. The object may be forgotten; the feeling will not.

Occasions: birthday, New Year, her wedding.
