With Christmas just around the corner, everyone’s scrambling to find the perfect gift. Between family you don’t know too well, friends impossible to shop for or even making up a wishlist of your own, Christmas shopping is anything but easy.
Teenagers can be hard to shop for. Once you know the basics of what they like, it’s easy to find something great.
These are the top five things to get a high schooler for Christmas. The gifts are ranked from budget friendly items to more expensive ones.
- Money and gift cards
Money and gift cards are the perfect gift on a budget. With their money, they can buy anything they’d like. Plus, any generic market place, like Target or Amazon, will give endless possibilities to a great gift.
- Basic clothes
Across Del Val, one of the most common gifts for girls was clothes; one thing we see a lot here is sweatshirts and pants. Any plain pair of sweatpants from Abercrombie, Hollister or Brandy Melville will be an easy gift that they will wear again and again.
Others things like sweatshirts, tank tops or anything with their favorite sports team will also be a great gift for any occasion.
- Jewelry
Jewelry is a more common gift. Bracelets are a fun gift for someone who likes to look put together and clean. Earrings are a good statement piece for someone either looking for a fun accent piece or a basic staple. Necklaces are perfect for someone you don’t know well, because everyone likes a nice necklace for everyday wear.
For some boys, jewelry might not be something they’d like, but from our research at Del Val, guys like chains. Whether it’s silver or gold, a nice chain adds to an outfit, making it a wonderful gift for the holidays.
- Perfume or cologne
Everyone likes to spell good. If you were to walk into a Sephora or Ulta, you would find a large section filled with different colognes and perfumes.
From cheaper body mists to more high-end perfumes, every girl needs a confidence boosting scent. Finding a good product is made easy with in person shopping. Keep smelling until you find the best scent.
Good colognes are more of a pricey item, but they’re worth it in the end. Nice colognes can elevate guys’ looks for special occasions, work or school. It’s a versatile and personal gift.
- Headphones or airpods
Even though many have them already, headphones are a great practical, stylish and versatile gift for anybody.
When shopping for a teen, pickiness can get in the way of finding a good gift, but with headphones all of that is set aside. Everybody likes music, no matter what genre.
