Bright Ideas For Every Woman

Don't wait until the last minute to snag the perfect present for all the wonderful ladies in your life. Instead, get started on your holiday shopping a bit early this year. We've brainstormed some great suggestions for every type of woman.

Shopping bag

Your shopaholic BFF

Shopping can start to take a serious toll on a woman's feet after a long day of scouring the racks. We recommend purchasing a fabulous foot massager, a luxurious sugar scrub or a pair of comfortable kicks so your bestie won't be complaining the next time she hits the mall. Snakeskin is also in this season, so a designer tote that's big enough to fit her purchases would be another excellent choice.

Spray bottle

Your clean-freak mom

Your mom's always blabbing on and on about how her house never looks clean. While we doubt that is actually true, we do suspect she'd be stoked to unwrap some helpful cleaning tools that make picking up those big kitchen messes a total breeze.

Your coffee-addicted grandma

Got a grandma who's addicted to coffee? Her entire face will light up when you finally replace that ancient coffeemaker she's been using with a brand-spanking-new one that (of course) brews the same cup of joe she knows and loves, but better. Warning — you might have to show your granny how to work it several times, otherwise she'll wind up kicking it to the curb and bringing back her old one.

Curling iron

Your haircare-obsessed sister

If she doesn't already have one, a shower filter is a great gift to consider for any sister who's concerned about the health of her hair. It'll reduce the chlorine in her water, giving her mane more bounce and shine. A high-tech curling iron or a straightening iron that protects her tresses and turns off automatically — yay, she won't burn down the house! — is also a foolproof option.

Faux fur hat

Your chic niece

Whether she's 5 years old or 15, you can never go wrong with faux fur — it's always in style! We suggest a trendy jacket, vest or super-soft throw blanket. Faux fur accessories, such as hats and scarves, are smart ideas too, especially for nieces who live in cold cities. There's no need for her to freeze her chic booty off when you can help, is there?
