Your Most Stylish Year Ever

Nothing is better than a present that you will actually use. “Give gift cards for services, like a mani/pedi, a car wash or oil change, or a gas card,” says Suzy Gershman, author of the Born to Shop book series. “I call them ‘necessary luxuries’ and in times like these, it becomes a luxury not to pay for those things yourself.” If a gift card seems impersonal, think about your recipient and give one that appeals to them—if she’s a beauty junkie, give her one to Sephora. The more personalized a present, the more meaningful it is.
