Have you or someone you know said the above phrases more times than you can count? If so, you've been Gilmored. The original show has been off the air for nearly 20 years, while the reboot is inching its way to its 10-year anniversary (please let there be a reboot of the reboot). But what does time matter? In 2023, Gilmore Girls was still one of the top shows streamed on Netflix. We can argue about why people love watching (and rewatching), but we rather just look at these cute Gilmore Girls-inspired gifts for fans.
CHECK OUT OUR ULTIMATE GIFT GUIDE LIST
The great thing about the popularity surrounding the series, is that there have been a ton of brand and store collaborations honoring its success. One of the latest was by Stoney Clover Lane in 2023, which featured Chilton sweatpants, themed travel pouches and patches. In fact, these days, you can find replicas of nearly everything from the show, from Lorelai's iconic pink tie-dye shirt to the Gilmore's Betty Boop planter.
And that's just the beginning of the Gilmore Girls merch, gifts and goodies you can get your hands on.

Gilmore Girls Throw Blanket
In April, TikTokers went wild over the Marshalls/TJ Maxx Gilmore blanket, but unless you can get to a store, it's impossible to find. Luckily, Amazon has a great dupe that features all the iconic symbols of the show. There's also a blue version.
Gilmore Girls Latte Mug Ceramic Salt and Pepper Shaker
Another viral find, fans first noticed this set, again, in TJ Maxx, but it's also on Amazon. We love the idea of gifting them to the Sookie in your life who loves to cook.
Gilmore Girls: At Home in Stars Hollow
Of course, you know the story of girls, but this children's book offers it up in a new way with vibrant illustrations. It even fills in some blanks for us — like when Rory and Lane first meet.
Gilmore Girls Luke's Diner Glass Mug
It's not exactly as big as the ones from the show, but this mug will do. It'll hold 16 ounces of your favorite coffee drink, and it's dishwasher safe.
Why Did Your Drop Out of Yale? Hoodie
If there's one scene that lives rent-free in most of our heads, it's the one when Jess says this to Rory. Again, only true fans will get the reference, which makes it even more fun. There's also a t-shirt version.

Ceramic Betty Boop Head
That ridiculous Betty Boop head can be yours, too! Sure, it's technically a cookie jar, but feel free to also use it as a vase or planter for when your grandmother comes over for a surprise inspection of your house.
Luke's Diner To-Go Coffee Cup Card Holder
Loungefly is another popular brand that has a Gilmore collab. One of the sweetest options is this small cardholder that has a place for change and four cards.
Tie-Dye V-Neck T-Shirt
The moment we see Lorelai run down the stairs in this shirt with cut-off shorts and boots, we learn exactly who we're dealing with. We love this as a gift because it's a true an insider reference, and it can be worn anytime (especially for Halloween!).
Stars Hollow: An Adult Coloring and Activity Book
Another great to do while you're watching for the 100th time. Traditional coloring pages are included, but you'll also find crossword and jumble pages for extra fun.
Hep Alien 2005 Tour T-Shirt
Sadly, it was probably the only tour the band went on, but at least it was successful. And if you're a true fan of Lane Kim, there's really no better way to pay homage to her than by wearing a band shirt.
Gilmore Girls Quotes Glass Coasters
What better place to put your coffee down than on a Gilmore Girls-themed coaster? Four come in a set, and two of them feature famous lines from the show. Our favorite? "Coffee, please, and a shot of cynicism."
Gilmore Birthday Party Decorations
Lorelai and Rory don't really seem to have much luck when it comes to their birthdays, but that doesn't mean the fan in your life can't. This set comes with a banner, cupcake toppers, balloons and more.
Gilmore Girls Doose's Market Tote Bag
A subtle way to honor your favorite show, head out to the store with a reusable Doose's Market bag. It's from the WB Shop, so it's official merchandise, and the site says it's made from 100% cotton.
Gilmore Girls Charm Bracelet
Do you have a tween or teen who has just discovered the show? If so, they'll love this Luke's Diner bracelet that has an adjustable band. It's subtle and cute.
What She Tackles She Conquers Wooden Sign
There are few lines in the show more iconic as this one. Although Richard utters it under not-so-great circumstances for the girls, it's a reminder that you can do anything you put your mind to.
Gilmore Girls Town Events Adult Hoodie
Another hoodie, we know. But hey, it is a fall show. And this time, you get to honor Kirk, Babette and Miss Patty. The front reads, "Stars Hollow Festival Committee," while the back lists all the events from the series.
Gilmore Girls: The Official Advent Calendar
Okay, so we've never seen an advent calendar for the show before, so clearly, we're freaking out. Although it's not available yet (we suggest you pre-order!), the brand says that inside, you'll find: "ornaments, patches, magnets, washi tape and more."

Funny Kitchen Spoons
They might not be up to Sookie's standards, but they are still lots of fun. You'll get four spoons in a set, and the cool thing is, they can be personalized to say any line from the show.
The Third Gilmore Girl
Kelly Bishop, who had an outstanding career even before becoming Emily, just released a memoir, where she discusses her incredible legacy. Fans will particularly love that Amy Sherman-Palladino, who created the series, wrote the forward.
Stars Hollow Hand-Painted Denim Jacket
If you really want to see your favorite Gilmore fan flip their coffee lid, get them this custom hand-painted jacket with details from the show. Yes, it's a lot of money, but it's basically a piece of art.
Talking as Fast as I Can
There's a lot to enjoy in Lauren Graham's book, but one chapter that will be really fun for GG viewers is when she writes out what it was like re-watching the show so many years later.
Reading Is hot T-Shirt
Ah, a classic Rory shirt. She, of course, wears this during season 5, when she's trying to figure out where she stands with Logan. But perhaps you remember the "Say Something" episode as the one when Luke and Lorelai breakup.
Blue Scarf Set
It's not perfect, we know. The color is a little off, but it does have the cable-knit look of the original. Plus, there's a matching hat and gloves.
Itty Bittys Gilmore Girls
How cute are these little dolls? Sure, they are great for kids, but there's no reason why an adult couldn't display them.
Travel Pouch
You're in luck if you missed out on the launch from Stoney Clover Lane. There are still a ton of items in stock, including this super-sleek pouch that can hold all your essentials. The icing on the cake? The color is called "Friday Night Dinners."
1,000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle
Spend the whole weekend binge-watching Gilmore Girls while working on this puzzle. It features the whole town, and can be easily stored away when you're done. Although, we recommend framing it.
Large Coffee Cup
For fans who aren't into a bunch of Gilmore Girls branded items, but still want to get in on the fun, go for these mugs. They hold 24-ounces, and come in a bunch of colors similar to those from Luke's.
Gilmore Girls Mug Set
Two mugs are included here. Each one features a symbol associated with the character (daisies for Lorelai, books for Rory). You can give them both, or keep one for yourself.

Miniature Frog Statue
This pick might throw you through a loop, but who else remembers when Sookie tells Lorelai how she became "Frog Girl" after telling Jackson she liked frogs? It's quirky, but you'll score major points if you're in a relationship together.
The Metamorphosis
Another one that might have you scratching your head, but as true fans will know, Rory tells Lane that giving a book as a gift is very romantic. The one she picks out for Dean, The Metamorphosis, is about a man who one day wakes up as an insect. If you haven't read it yet, it's actually an incredible Nobel Prize-winning piece that will really have you reflecting on life.
