Art of Manliness Holiday Gift Guide 2015: 50 Gift Ideas for the Women in Your Life

You asked for it AoM readers. And at last we have delivered.

Ever since we started putting out our gift guides for men way back in 2008, you all have been requesting that we offer a similar guide, but with gift suggestions for ladies. “I don’t have much trouble knowing what I’d like for Christmas,” you told us, “but I have a really hard time knowing what to get for the women in my life.” We hear you. It can indeed be difficult to come up with unique and classic gifts that will really delight and warm the hearts of the lovely ladies out there.

But this year we’ve got your back. The AoM team not only put our heads together to come up with some great gift ideas for women, we also reached out to a bunch of lady bloggers to get their sure-to-be home run suggestions. No matter your gal’s personality — girly, sporty, outdoorsy, stylish, or all of the above — there’s something on the list she’ll love. And you’ll love the fact that there are ideas for every budget.

The only remaining head-scratcher is what to put in her stocking. For our suggestions on that front, you’ll have to wait until next year!

This makes for a great gift for anyone, and if you’re a real gentleman, perhaps you’ll even make the cookies after gifting them. $12-$16 ~Jeremy

Happy Mail Stationery Subscription

Every year I try to make a New Year’s resolution. It’s not always something earth shattering but it’s always important to me. This year I’m planning to make my goal to be to remember to send all our friends and family a card for their birthday or a special event (like if they get married, or buy a new house). I’ve shared my resolution with my husband and I’ve hinted that one way he could show his support is gifting me a big stash of beautiful stationery or a monthly subscription. A favorite is the Happy Mail subscription because it has a wide variety of cards every month. $15-$20/month ~Emma Chapman, A Beautiful Mess

DIY Hanging Air Plant Kit

Air plants are a great gift because they require little-to-no upkeep. You spritz it with a water atomizer (included in the kit) once a week, and that’s it. But, they also look great in kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and any other space that needs some greenery to liven things up. This DIY kit is especially fun because it comes with all the moss, lichen, rocks, etc. to create your own unique environment within the glass bubble. $20 ~Brett

Coffee Subscription

“Of the month” clubs have been all the rage the past few years. While there are a bajillion to choose from, one of my favorites for my wife is a coffee subscription. There are few things she enjoys more than a fresh cup of French-pressed java, made with love by hers truly. A few options exist, and each send you small batch coffee beans on a monthly basis. I roast my own coffee at home, and each of these services have rivaled or bested what I can do. Not only that, it’s a gift we enjoy together as we partake in our coffee ritual each morning. Try out Bean Box, Driftaway, or Starbucks Reserve. Starts at $20 ~Jeremy

Buck Knives Bantam Folding Knife

Everyone should carry a pocket knife, ladies included. Buck Knives is one of the best in the biz (it’s the same brand that manufactures our AoM pocket knife), and their products come with lifetime warranties. This folding knife is compact, eminently practical, and comes with a removable clip if your lady doesn’t want to clutter her pockets. This particular model also has some feminine flair; there are non-pink options too, for those ladies who prefer a more classic, gender-neutral look. $21 ~Brett

Mama Bear Necklace

For the mamas out there who don’t necessarily want the bling of diamonds around their neck, this mama bear necklace conveys both love and fierce protection towards one’s progeny. It’s simple, elegant, and very affordable. $25 ~Jeremy

Vintage Grace Kelly Earrings

Lumie Bodyclock Active... Best Price: $95.70 Buy New $120.00 (as of 12:10 UTC - Details) Grace Kelly is the definition of classic and refined beauty. Her style was elegant, but not overwhelming. These earrings fit that same bill. The colored glass is from the 1950s and ’60s, while the brass fittings are brand spankin’ new. Vintage and modern style are combined into one (or two, rather) beautiful pieces of jewelry. And the price tag looks good, too! $28~Kate

Wine of the Month Club

There are tons of wine of the month clubs out there. Even wineries have their own clubs, sending members varietals from their storehouse each month. The best of the bunch, though, is the Wine of the Month Club. Started in 1972, this club was truly one of the first subscription services (as we know them today) out there. The packaging is superb, and with your first order, you get a wine accessory, be it a nice opener or a vacuum sealer. Each shipment features two bottles of wine — and you can decide if you’d like red and white, or just reds. If you get a particular bottle of wine and don’t like it, you can get a new bottle sent your way free of charge. There are multiple clubs to choose from, including just California wines or their rare limited series. $30-$50/month ~Jeremy
