So, you need a gift for your girlfriend. Although you know her better than anyone, finding the perfect present can be quite a challenge since she already has everything under the sun (or so it seems). Luckily, as the resident gifting expert at Yahoo, I’ve spent years following gifting trends and am always on top of the latest releases. To help you in your hunt, I've rounded up a range of the best gifts for girlfriends from the practical (like this Yeti Rambler Wine Chiller) to the luxe (like this Coach bag).

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with a gift card, but if you want to go the extra mile, then these unique gift ideas are your best bet. And you don’t have to splurge on a gift for her. I made sure to include plenty of small, budget-friendly options, starting under $25. Whatever's on the horizon — her birthday, your anniversary or if you want to get her something “just because”— these cute-as-can-be picks will make your sweetheart feel the love.
