All the Best Gifts for Your Sister No Matter the Holiday
Everyone likes getting gifts—especially sisters, who deserve way more praise. So if you want to remind your built-in best friend how much you love her, these are the best gifts for sisters. Whether she’s into rare luxury finds or practical goods that will make her life easier, she’ll love whatever you’ve picked. After all, it’s the thought that counts, right?
From a vacuum-insulated stainless steel bottle to a faux fur throw blanket that looks and feels real, these best-sellers are about to become sister-approved. So if you’re in a pinch and need to snag a gift worthy of your sister, you’ve come to the right place. We picked pieces—some of which were gifts from our own sisters—that work for every event including birthdays, holidays, and if you’re just that generous.
Plus, these presents work with any budget. In fact, one of the most popular finds is less than $15, but you'll have to keep scrolling to see what it is. (All we’ll say is that if you get it for your sister, she’ll learn a new skill that’s equal parts challenging and delicious!) And if you want to spend a little extra on your gift, we’ve included plenty of luxury products that will wow even the hardest to impress siblings. Oh, and be sure to go the extra mile, wrap your gift, and finish it off with a thoughtful card.

1) Scented Candle
Capri Blue
amazon.com
$33.80
These Capri Blue candles are familiar in the best way. Both the look and the heavenly fresh citrus scent are reminiscent of pretty much any Anthropologie store, but luckily for anyone who doesn't live close to the brick-and-mortar, the candles are also on Amazon.

2) Pure Silk Sleep Mask
Slip
nordstrom.com
$50.00
Beauty sleep is best enjoyed in complete darkness and silence. We may not be able to help with the noise level, but we can certainly do our best to minimize the amount of unwanted light streaming into the bedroom. The silk eye mask is so soft (and not too tight on your head) that you barely feel it. Plus, because they're silk, they don't absorb your beauty products or tug at your skin and cause wrinkles. These days, there are quite a few silk eye masks on the market, but in our opinion, Slip is the best.

8) Primrose Vanity Tray
Anthropologie
anthropologie.com
$54.00
This vintage-inspired tray looks pretty similar to the iconic Anthropologie mirror, but it's much more affordable. Your sister can use it for pretty much everything, but we're into using it as a display base for a perfume collection. Bonus points if you snag a fragrance for the tray.

14) Luxe Hardcore Sheet Bundle
Brooklinen

A set of sheets may seem like a strange gift, but your sister is your family, which makes nothing off-limits. Plus, like we said: No gift is better received than one the recipient actually needs.

22) Boyfriend Long Sleeve T-Shirt
SKIMS
skims.com

40) The Weekender
Beis
beistravel.com
$98.00
We're big fans of Beis, one of the only travel brands that makes ergonomic luggage, including this weekender duffle. The bottom compartment unzips to reveal a space designed specifically for shoes, toiletries, and even a hairdryer. There's also a pocket along the back that makes it easy to slide onto the handle of your carry-on.
Beis - 42/51
41) Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush
Quip
getquip.com
$40.00
We'll be the first to admit it, giving your sister a toothbrush as a gift may seem like your not-so-subtle way of implying that her dental hygiene could be better, but this is no ordinary toothbrush. It works with timed sonic vibrations and comes with a travel cover that doubles as a mirror mount.

Le Labo

$90.00
Le Labo's AnOther 13 is one of those scents that you'll be tempted to buy as soon as you smell it on someone else. Let your sister be that person everyone wants to copy. One thing we will say: It's not subtle. It's made with notes of ambroxan, jasmine petals, musk, moss, and woody amber.
Nordstrom - 46/51
45) Le Mini
Venus et Fleur
venusetfleur.com

Spending $53 on a single rose may seem steep, but this single rose will last for a whole year before it starts to wilt. We don't know how Venus et Fleur does it, but we aren't questioning the magic.
