    Elevated Basics: Chic Girl Gifts for the Girl Who Has It All

    You know the girl. She has everything, she wants nothing, and every time a birthday or holiday rolls around you end up staring at your phone thinking, what on earth do I get her? This is my answer. Elevated basics. Take the everyday things she already uses, the coffee cup, the hairbrush, the robe, the notebook, and get her the cooler, chicer, more personal version. Nothing random, nothing that ends up in a drawer. Just thoughtful upgrades on the things that are already part of her day. Many of these are personalizable, which is the whole point. Her name, her initial, her dog, her birth flower. That is what makes a $4 matchbox feel like a real gift.

    Step 1

    Morning coffee, but make it chic

    She already drinks coffee every morning. Get her the version that makes the morning feel a little more special.

    Pro Tip

    The Koythin mug is currently LTK only. The other pieces are also in my ShopMy collection. Prices and availability can change; check the linked listing before ordering.

    Step 2

    Getting ready, but make it personal

    These are the pieces she reaches for every day, just with her name on them.

    Step 4

    For celebrating

    For the girl who loves a good toast, a good bag, and a good pair of sandals.

    The girl who has it all does not need more stuff. She needs the version of the stuff she already loves, made just for her. That is what this whole guide is. Pick one thing, personalize it, and you are done.
