Christmas Gifts for Women

Christmas Gifts for Women 1

What do women really want? Most women want gifts that can't be wrapped up - a genuine compliment, lunch with a friend, time to exercise, or a family photo shoot.

Even so, it can still be fun to put something under the tree. Consider these lovely gift picks for her.

MagnaPods Adhesive Cosmetic Organizers

Christmas Gifts for Women 3

Looking for a unique stocking stuffer that she'll actually use? MagnaPods are the answer! They're magnetic cosmetic organizers that will stick conveniently inside her medicine cabinet. We have several inside our master bathroom's cabinet - it's where I keep my lipstick, mascara, fingernail clippers, tweezers, etc. Brilliant.

Active Clothing by Skirt Sports

Christmas Gifts for Women 4

Female athletes will appreciate the modern, feminine, and fun clothing options from SkirtSports (a Boulder, CO company). Choose her favorite activity (running, biking, triathlon, golf, or yoga/pilates) and you'll find a wonderful assortment of stretchy skirts, dresses, and tops. The material is moisture-wicking and ultra-comfortable. Clearly made with women in mind. The GymGirl Ultra is an especially versatile pick. Note that, in my experience, this brand's clothing tends to run big so I recommend sizing down if you're in between sizes.

Stand Up 2 Cancer Pullover

Support innovative cancer research while giving a practical gift! Take a look at this slouchy pullover in a flattering charcoal grey. The material is super soft and comfortable. It's a great casual look for errands, park days, and classes on-campus. Note that Stand Up To Cancer's mission is "to fund collaborative, translational cancer research to bring treatments from the bench to the bedside faster, and save lives now."

Necklace by 1000 Shillings

Christmas Gifts for Women 8

Consider a limited-edition paper bead necklace, created by Ugandan women who are working to start their own small businesses so that they can support their families. Without opportunities like bead necklaces, these women live and work in the slums, making an average of 1000 shillings (about 40 cents) per day. The piece above is handmade by Martha and available in either red or teal.
