8 Amazon gift ideas for your impossible-to-impress teenage daughter or granddaughter

Flare leggings (also known as yoga pants to those of us who are a certain age) are back in a big way for teens these days. They wear them to school, to hang out on the weekends and just to lounge around the house, so you can be sure they'll get put to good use. This pair has more than 9,000 five-star ratings, with many shoppers commenting that the fabric is comfortable and high quality.

When they say "everything old is new again," they don't just mean clothing. This Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 Instant Camera is basically an upgraded Polaroid camera from days past. Teens love to use this instant camera to snap pictures at sleepovers or when they're hanging out to create memories that live outside of their phones.

If the teen you're shopping for always has their headphones in with Spotify playing, then chances are they'll appreciate a vintage-looking band tee like this popular Nirvana one. You may need to do some research on what they're listening to, but it'll be well worth it when you see them wearing the gift you purchased.

Walking from class to class all day means kids are on their feet a lot, so it's no surprise that they love comfy Crocs clogs. This lined pair is an especially good choice if you're shopping for a teen who lives somewhere that gets cold. If you want to take this gift to the next level, include some charms that your teen can use to personalize their slides.

If you're willing to splurge a bit, these Ugg Ultra Minis are sure to make the teen in your life giddy this holiday season. They're available in more than a dozen colors in women's shoe sizes 5 to 12. Buy now — they're already in limited stock.

You may be surprised to learn that some teens actually hate traditional backpacks and prefer to lug, I mean carry, their school books around in a tote bag instead. Whether the kid you're shopping for is into art, music, nostalgia or movies, there are tons of cool options to choose from on Amazon.

Make every day feel like an indulgent spa day for your teen by gifting them a yummy-smelling body care set that includes body wash and lotion. Japanese Cherry Blossom is one of Bath & Body Works' most popular scents, so it's always a good option. If your teen usually showers before bed, consider a relaxing lavender option. If she needs a boost in the morning, go with a citrus fragrance.

Sure, some people feel gift cards aren't personal or thoughtful, but others are very eager (and glad!) to receive them during the holiday season. If you know your teen loves makeup or skin care but don't want to risk purchasing the wrong products, a Sephora (or Ulta) gift card is a wonderful present. You can easily buy them on Amazon, along with gift cards for lots of other retailers like Starbucks, H&M, Bath & Body Works, American Eagle and Hollister.
