22. Ezcosplay Button Down Blouse

Best Gifts For A Friend

Price: $25.98

There’s something about clothes that are white in colour. While LBDs are amazing, they require a lot of effort. And by effort, we mean shaving. Ain’t nobody got time for that. So blouses and pants are always a go-to. This shirt by Ezcosplay is made of cotton linen and is extremely lightweight. It’s a loose fit full sleeve button down shirt that will leave its wearer looking sexy, yet formal. It’s great for casual occasions too, so one would say that this is shirt is not just a purchase, it’s an investment. While there are not many websites which suggest that a plain white shirt is one of the best gifts for your friend, we’ve decided to change that by including this shirt because everyone needs a plain white shirt. Why just the LBD? This looks just as great. Pair it with black or navy blue skinny jeans and you’re more than just good. Also if there isn’t any occasion to celebrate and you just want to get your friend a gift, this shirt is the best pick. Your friend will be eternally grateful to you for getting her this blouse and will pretty much wear it everywhere. It’s great for instagram pictures, so if you’re getting her this, be prepared for a whole lot of mentions and tags!

20. iPod Nano

Best Gifts For A Friend

Price: $149.99 onwards

This iPod Nano too, much like the acoustic guitar is not gender specific and is a great gift for your friend. While we thought that the 6th generation version of the same could not be replaced and was simply the best, Apple has proved us wrong yet again with this amazing piece of work. Tim Cook, we salute you. Not that the entire credit for the iPod goes to just one man, but the way he unveiled it to us made us fall in love with it more. The iPod Nano looks much like the iPod Touch with its home button, but smaller and cuter. It’s 2.5 inch display with a multitouch screen, makes it a wonderful product for a lower price. It facilitates video playback and can support bluetooth speakers and headphones. The iPod touch is too big to carry around whilst running, which makes the Nano the best choice.  A list of best gifts for your friend had to have an Apple product in it and we honestly cannot think of a gift that’s more perfect than the Nano.

Ah, the classic Tommy Hilfiger wallet.

9. Kane and Abel by Jeffrey Archer

Best Gifts For A Friend

Price: $6.89

Buying a gift for a friend can be stressful, we understand. Speaking of stress, one of the best ways to get rid of it and escape into another world is to read a book. If your friend is a voracious reader, this could just be the best book they’ve ever read or if they are someone who’d just watch the movie instead (How in the world… Never mind), this could be an amazing start for them into the serenity that is reading. Kane and Abel is a book by Jeffrey Archer that’s set in the tie of World Wars I and II. But it’s not entirely about war or history, for it’s a spectacular work of friction. It broadens your mind about so many things and is simply un-put-down-able, if that’s even a word. The book relates to you like it’s your cousin. It’s about rivalry, betrayal, family, love, success, failure and so much more. Above all, if your friend thinks stocks is boring because they don’t really understand it, reading this book would change their mind. No matter how many e-books you read, it will never match the feeling of reading a book. Also, can you hide a gun in an e-book? Just kidding just kidding.

This is a gift for all occasions and is one of the best gifts for your friend.
