It’s the season of gifting and that means it’s also the season of not knowing what to give anyone! If you’re like me, you have to ask at least five different people for an opinion before you settle on a gift for somebody.
Gifting is stressful! It’s hard to find gifts for people that don’t want or need anything and it’s even harder to know where to start looking because there’s just so much out there! But today you’re in luck because you’ve found this article, presumably because you would like a few ideas on what to gift a fashionable friend or family member.
I crawled the web- all of my favorite sites, and found some trendy accessories I think any fashion-lover would jump at the chance to add to their wardrobes. Check out and shop my picks below:
Lovely Little Belt
Heart motifs never fail to make a big statement. Help your friend cinch their waist in style with this chic and adorable belt. The black and gold coloring ensure it will match nearly any wardrobe!

Blue Velvet Belt Bag
The belt bag is the chic update to the much renowned and equally reviled fanny pack- and I love it! Not only is it super convenient for holding your phone, keys and wallet, the simple addition of a bold, blue bag can instantly elevate your outfit.

Artsy Pearl Earrings
Earrings are such a great, subtle way to inject more style into even simple outfits. I love these danglers because gold and pearl is such an elegant pairing- plus the asymmetry makes them look like a wearable piece of art!
Pearl Detail Asymmetric Earrings, $29.99 via Mango
Funky A-Okay Hand Cuff
While we’re on the topic of artsy accessories, check out these fun hand cuffs (ha!). If your friend is a fan of adding interesting little details to their looks, then these unique bracelets will certainly come in HANDy (I’m sorry, I couldn’t stop myself!).

Extra-Long, Extra-Stylish Gloves
A lot of times gloves are an afterthought, just something used to keep you warm, but that’s not how it has to be! Get your friend a pair of gloves they can be proud of- like these glamorous stunners that go all the way up the arm.
Long Wool Gloves, $99 via Cos
Charming Statement Sandals
While I don’t consider shoes to be an accessory per se, these pretty little block heeled sandals certainly caught my attention. Whether you choose glitter or feathers, these shoes will add all of the charm an outfit requires.

Personalized Preppy Hair Ribbon
Spruce up your friends’ ponytails with a neat, embroidered hair ribbon. Such a silky bow will add some prep to any look. Plus, each of these beauties comes embroidered with your friends’ initials for a personal touch.

Edgy Carabiner Necklace
Normal, dangly necklaces have never been all that appealing to me. A necklace should add interest to an outfit, another layer of style. I think all of your fashionable friends would appreciate this interesting necklace made from different sorts of clasps, making fashion out of everyday objects.

Colorful Printed Silk Scarf
Everyone needs a good silk scarf in their wardrobe because it’s simply one of the most versatile accessories. Wear it around the neck, tied to a purse strap, around the waist as a belt, in the hair as a hair tie or headband… the options are nearly endless. I love one that can add a pop of color, like this Gucci one.

Plaid Winter Cap
If you and your friends live in a cold region, there is one thing you all need to get through the winter: a good, warm cap. I fell in love with this one because it doesn’t look like your normal warm hat, but it features ear flaps and an under-chin ribbon to keep it fastened to your head. And the plaid is just so cute!
Thinking Cap, $70 via Man Repeller
Expressive Hair Clips
I became totally obsessed with these hair clips from the first time I saw them on the runway- they’re just so bold and fun! If your friends are looking for a daring way to spice up their hair game, then these clips might be just what they’re looking for.Â

Extreme Cat-Eye Sunglasses
A good pair of sunglasses can make any outfit more chic. Lately eyewear trends have been all over the place, and one of the most prominent trends I’ve noticed is the retro cat eye shape, but over-the-top. Any fan of retro/vintage style will love these!
