Gift Guide: Under $50 gift ideas for your stylish BFF

We've all got that one (or a few?) stylish friends who are extremely difficult to shop for. I've personally been surrounded by fashionistas since high school, so I'd like to think I'm pretty skilled at finding unique, fashionable gifts for them by now!

And who says great presents need to be expensive? Scroll on to see gift ideas that are all under $50.

1. Whimsical socks by Sock Candy

This female-owned fashion brand just launched a few months ago, but you can already find them in numerous press features, including VOGUE! The sheer styles are my personal favorites. You can either get them for $18 a pair or the full Sheer Collection for $50 per bundle. The brand also launched a special edition Holiday Shimmer Bundle that is priced at $30 per set.

2. A chic magnetic hat holder by Lindsay Albanese

If your BFF is a hat lover, this little helper will be a lifesaver to them. Whenever we go out with hats, the struggle is always what to do with them when we take them off. This accessory invented by stylist Lindsay Albanese is made of leather and features a strong magnetic closure that allows hats to be secured to handbags on-the-go! There are so many different styles, but this classic one ($48) is a fail-proof option. In fact, that's the one I got myself earlier this summer.

3. Matching face mask and headband set by Lele Sadoughi

We can find face masks made by several brands now, but not often do we come across one that offers comes with matching headbands! Priced at $49 a pair, the set comes in black and gray.

4. Wool bucket hat by Petite Studio

The bucket hat trend is still going strong and NYC-based Petite Studio designed wool versions that are perfect for the winter. This wool bucket hat ($49) comes in 2 colors, dark gray and mocha brown.

5. Reversible leather wrap bracelets by Jeff Wan

Known for their lunch box bags, Jeff Wan is a fashion brand that offers leather accessories, including these chic leather wrap bracelets that comes in 13 different colors! It's originally priced at $65, but with the winter sale promo code WINTER30, the bracelet becomes $45.50 each.

6. Sanitizer Holder by Lark and Ives

Made with cruelty-free, vegan leather, this elegant pouch ($35) comes with a 30ml empty bottle so your BFF can fill it up with her favorite hand sanitizer; it's also got a key chain attached so everything is in one place!

7. Leopard Print Airpod Case by Iphoria

Your stylish friend's Airpod can have a stylish outfit, too. This hardshell case with a bold leopard print ($33) comes with a key ring which means no more digging-in-the-bag to look for those Airpods.

8. Super Scrunchies by Free People

A statement hairpiece for the lounging-in-but-chic days. The oversized scrunchie ($12) is available in nearly 30 different colors - and trust me when I say, choosing the right shade may be the biggest challenge at this point.

9. Removeable Statement Collar by ASOS

If you haven't noticed, tops with statement collars are trending right now! But instead of getting one top, I think a removable collar is more practical. Your fashionista friend would be able to layer it over any sweater or blouse she already owns and create a whole new look. This lace frill collar ($23), for instance, is so elegant; this pastel pink version ($16) is also so adorable!

10. Face mask storage pouch on Etsy

I've come across many mask cases that are practical but I haven't seen elegantly designed ones like this cotton one I found on Etsy ($12.40). The pouch is hand-sewn and comes in 9 different colors. It's a great way to store extra masks in your bag or to simply keep safe the one you have on during meal times.
