When we're shopping for gifts this season, the one rule we should all follow is to buy items we'd be happy to receive. You shouldn't settle on a quick, easy gift for someone just because you won't be the one unwrapping it. The internet is full of presents that don't require much thought or effort (ahem, socks and gift cards), but I scrolled through thousands of fashion, beauty, and home products to find 60 gifts worth bragging about. Below, I've included fur scarves, personalized blankets, scalp massagers, and so many more gifts at a variety of price points. Consider this comprehensive list your official guide to unique and whimsical gifts this season. After all, your friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors deserve nothing but the best. Happy holidays, and happy shopping!
