We all know women can be the hardest people to shop for. We know what we like, and we can be picky about what we like too.
So whether you’re shopping for your mom, wife, your mother-in-law or best friend, what do you buy them?

I’ve scoured the Internet, talked to women in my own life and am sharing the best gifts for Christmas, their birthday or any other special day. Because really, do we need a holiday to give a gift? I don’t think so.

1. For the One Who Loves an Inspirational Quote: Little Word Project Bracelet
I love these motivational bracelets. You can order them to say whatever you want, so they’re totally customizable for whoever you’re gifting them to. Even cooler, you can register them and then pass them on to friends who need a boost. Then as it gets passed around to brighten people’s days, you can see where the bracelet has been on its journey!
A curated assortment of our best sellers. The perfect starter stack! Keep some for yourself and pass some on.
A little reminder to register your bracelets! When you've passed them on, you can track their journey to see who else they've inspired.
2. For the One Who Has Nothing to Wear: Created Colorful Consult
I’ll admit, I am truly the hardest person to shop for. So when my mom gifted me a Created Colorful Consult everyone was so surprised to see how excited I got! This was truly one of the best gifts I have received in YEARS.
This is how it works. After purchasing a consult, you submit 20-30 photos of yourself with different colored fabric draped over you (think shirts, blankets, towels, etc). The amazing crew at Created Colorful will analyze these photos and ask for 1 (sometimes 2 more) sets of photos.
Then you’ll be sent an email that is truly the most encouraging email you’ll ever receive (no joke we have debated printing it off and putting it in our closet to remind ourselves of our beauty) and a complete list of the best colors for you to wear.
It makes shopping SO much easier since you can easily pick what colors you should (and shouldn’t) wear and makes getting dressed so much easier. I can’t recommend this enough!
Find your best colorsāthe palette that makes you look objectively radiantāand embrace your natural beauty. So you can finally start to see yourself as the TEN you already are!
