Best gifts for her

Start with a spa gift basket. A ready-made relaxing set is the safest "she'll actually use it" gift — it works for a friend, sister, mom or coworker, and it feels considered without needing to know her size or taste.

• Cozy gift box — best when you want something warm and personal-feeling; candle-and-comfort type gifts land well with anyone who likes a quiet night in.
• Skincare set — for someone who's into routines and ingredients; pick this over a basket if she's particular about what goes on her face.
• Throw blanket — the low-risk, universally welcome option, especially for a homebody or a new-apartment gift.
• Fragrance — a small bottle of a cult scent is a lovely splurge for someone who loves perfume, but it's the most personal choice here.
• Jewelry or a tote — a simple pendant or a roomy everyday bag suits a friend or colleague when you'd rather give one thing she'll wear than a box of small items.

If you know her hobbies or a budget, that narrows it fast.
