This is always the first gift guide I work on and my favorite. I have two teen girls and I love shopping for them. I wanted to put together a bunch of ideas in various price ranges of things that both of my girls and many of their friends would like.
Hopefully you get some inspiration for girls on your list this year and scroll down just a bit for a bunch of stocking stuffer ideas for teen girls too.
Owala 24oz Water Bottle. My girls call my Owala tumblers “knock off Stanleys” but guess which cups constantly go missing only to be found in their rooms? I absolutely love Owala tumbers and bottles. They are awesome and they just came out with this new size that is more manageable than the huge 40oz size. This is perfect for water, sodas, iced coffee etc.. and can be tossed right in the dishwasher. I am getting different colors for each daughter and one for myself for iced coffee this year.
Smiley Face Throw Blanket. I think this is a great alternative to the checkered blanket we see everywhere and such a fun little throw for the end of a bed or chair. If you decide to grab one of these throws, add a little room mist like this one and it would be a fantastic gift.
Urban Decay Moondust Palette. This is a newer palette from Urban Decay with four shimmery shadows that are so pretty. I am really debating whether to get this for myself as a gift for my younger daughter…
Londontown Nail Polish. This is one of my absolute favorite polish brands and I have noticed it is one my girls regularly “borrow”. This little set includes some manicure items plus a confetti glitter polish and a white ivory polish.
Slouchy Socks. Big thick slouchy socks are a must for teens and especially if your teenager has Birkenstocks or Uggs. These are super affordable and very soft.
Puffer Jacket. This is such a cute little puffer jacket that comes in a few colors and is slightly cropped so a lot less bulky than a traditional puffer.
Satin PJ Set. My older daughter loves pj sets. She is always hot so Intend to get her short sets- even in winter and this satin set with the little flounce shorts are so cute.
Pendant Necklace. Jewelry is always a good idea and I found something a little nicer but still very, very afforable. I thought the butterfly was cute but I really love this bright star necklace too. The entire Estella Barlett collection is lovely and worth checking out.
Over Ear Headphones. I am not about to suggest you drop $500 on the Apple headphones but if you have a teen that wants the larger, over ear style headphones these are affordable and very pretty.
Lululemon Scuba Sweatshirt. Any staples from Lulu are a great gift idea. My older daughter has Hottie Hot shorts that she has worn to death. I will pick up a new pair for her this year and probably one of the Scuba sweatshirts. These things aren’t inexpensive but I know she will wear them over and over and over again.
Hair Oil. My younger daughter is really into haircare so I was thinking of a nice hair oil or maybe a mask.. This Ouai oil is a great choice for girls that like slick, straight hair as it acts to eliminate frizz.
Toiletry Bag. This is really cute and inexpensive and perfect for girls that travel or just teens that are on the go. I really like toiletry bags that hang up to avoid clutter everywhere. Fill this guy with some of their favorites- this Saltair travel set is only $10 and would be perfect.
Ugg Tasman Slippers. Uggs are still such a great gift. My daughter got these for her 16th birthday and it was by far her favorite gift. If you might want to pick these up, I suggest buying them as soon as possible. They are already very difficult to find in stock so I am including a few links for you with inventory as of posting. The chesnut color is the most popular but I thought this lighter grey was also pretty. Chesnut in women’s is in stock right here at Dillard’s. I would order immediately if you want them this year.
Also try: Nordstrom here (sometimes the men’s are in stock after women sell out), Anthro (only a few sizes left), Amazon here (I can see platforms and regular Tasman)
AND if that isn’t enough, I put together some ideas for stockings too. I always take the stockings seriously because I’d rather get a few nice or practical things and not buy a bunch of junk to just fill the thing up.
Lululemon Keychain. A Lululemon keychain they can put on their keys or hang off a backpack.
Sol de Janiero Deodorant. Deodorant is a boring purchase but get something a little fancier to make practical items feel a little more exciting. Teens love Sol de Janeiro so this is a great option.
Water Bottle Stickers. I am linking Taylor Swift ones but anything your teen is into would be great- sports, music, teams, schools etc..
Summer Fridays Lip Gloss. Splurge lip gloss and this is the newest shade. If you want something fun at a significantly lower price, try this Tree Hut lip gloss or for a mid range option, Lanolips is perfect.
Birdie Personal Alarm. This is going in my 16 year old’s stocking for her keychain. It is a personal alarm just in case she is ever in a situation that is uncomfortable or scary you have an instant siren in your pocket.
Travel Jewelry Box. These are surprisingly handy. My daughter is constantly removing her Apple watch and earrings and such for soccer so having a place to put things is so much more secure than random backpack pockets.
Gold Hoop Earrings. Every teen girl seems to be wearing these chunky gold hoops.
Creaseless Hair Clips. Very handy little clips that won’t crease your hair.
Heatless Hair Curlers. These do work well and are fun for girls that like the wavy look.
Soft Socks. More socks but this time in fun patterns or styles.
Magnetic iPhone Cord. This I just ordered for myself. If you have a teen that is driving, this is a great gift. This magnetic cord stays nice and neat istead of the long messy cords you might have currently.
Jumbo Chocolate Bar. Toblerone is such good chocolate bar and they make these jumbo size bars that are perfect for stockings.
Car Cleaning Gel. Again for a teen that is driving, this slime stuff is great for removing little crumbs and dust etc.. in the car.
Checkered Slippers. I have these and they are so cute and so affordable! These would be really cute sticking out of the top of a stocking.
