hey bestie! top gifts for top friends
Because they really deserve, well, the best
Because they really deserve, well, the best
In all seriousness, where would we be without our best friends? Uninspired and destitute, probably. But mostly we’d be sad (otherwise known as the worst feeling in the world). In honour of this truth, and even if gift-giving is not actually your love language, we thought it was a good idea to assemble a list of the best gifts for your best friend. And yes, we’ve anticipated the plot twist in which you claim your best friend is in fact yourself – self-love is always encouraged here.
PICTURE PERFECT
Now I‑Type Instant Camera
You probably have loads of pictures of your best friend on your phone, but nothing compares to having a picture of them that you can hold close to your chest and place beneath a novelty magnet on the fridge (as you can do if you have a Polaroid camera).
SELF CARE SESSIONS
Self Care Sunday Masking Set
If you and your best friend are serious about self-care, a single sheet mask will not suffice. What you’ll require – in addition to a single sheet mask – is a peel-off face mask, a pair of foot masks, a hair mask and a body scrub. Fortunately, Yes Studio provides exactly that in one beautiful branded gift box!
PING PONG PALS
Exclusive ArtBats With Balls
Claiming that you are your own best friend will be of no use here. A bat- and- ball set always needs a companion for the sake of the game, but a bat and ball set arising from a collaboration between The Conran Shop and The Art of Ping Pong requires widespread appreciation. And, in that case, two heads are better than one.
ONE FOR THEIR JEWELLERY COLLECTION
BFF'S NECKLACE
Take ownership – in a completely loving and non-toxic way – of your best friend by buying them a Roxanne First BFF necklace constructed in mother of pearl.
PUT A SOCK ON IT
2-Pack Bestie Socks
When it comes to the love we have for our best friends, we’re big advocates of being very direct about it. While some of us might opt for BFF necklaces, others prefer socks – like this funky pair by Happy Socks.
PROFANITIES ON FIRE
F*CK YOU CANDLE
Unless your best friend has done something terrible (it happens), the act of giving them this Candlehand candle isn’t so much a direct message but a symbol of solidarity. After all, it’s you two against the world, isn’t it?
PLANT LOVE
Peace Lily
If you have recently had a fight with your best friend, a Peace Lily might be the perfect gift. If you have not recently had a fight with your best friend (and aren’t the sort of person to take the concept of a peace offering so literally), it’s still the perfect gift – for anyone. Everyone can benefit from plants, unless you give one that’s poisonous to animals to someone with pets. But cross that bridge when you come to it!
T-SHIRT TIME
Play Basic Logo Tee
There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a materialistic best friend who appreciates designer goods. Who else are you going to share your love for Comme des Garcons PLAY with?
THE GAME OF LIFE
The Friendship Game
True intimacy within friendship requires a lot of sharing, but that can be hard. Play The Friendship Game from The School of Life, however, and you’ll be given the cues you need to open up fully. Trust us, it’ll be worth it.
JUST KEEP SMILING
Baby Smiling Figurine
What’s not to love about this smiling Hoptimist figurine? Give it to the friend who makes you the happiest.
SCRUB UP NICELY
The Listener
Heaven is receiving a single Aesop product, so imagine the potential for ecstasy that comes from receiving three of them. We suggest giving this to the friend who listens – you know full well how indispensable they are.
