The holiday season has finally arrived, bringing with it the pressure to find perfect gifts for all of the important people in your life. I reckon that your best friend deserves something extra special for standing by you through thick and thin because as Candace Bushnell once said, Maybe our girlfriends are our soul mates_ If you are stumped on what to get your bestie, this handy holiday gift guide is exactly what you need!

Symbolic Baubles

I consider myself extremely lucky to have found my soul sister in my best friend and I am sure you do too. What motif better represents good luck and fortune than a four leaf clover? Make your bestie tear up with a delicate four leaf clover necklace which she can wear on a daily basis to remind herself of just how much she means to you. A quick search on the web will reveal a host of options in different metals, stone and budgets. Bonus points for writing a cute message to go with it!

Homemade Body Scrub

Does your bestie enjoy indulging in sweet scented bath and body products after a tiring day? I have never met a lady who does not. Get creative and make her a personalized body scrub which she will treasure for days on end. Your bestie will start preparing her skin for summer so that she will look absolutely fab in her latest designer bikini. Since the festive season is all about pumpkin spice this and that, stick with the theme and whip up a pumpkin spice sugar scrub for your favourite girlfriend. Combine half a cup of fresh pureed pumpkin, one teaspoon of ginger and cinnamon, half a teaspoon of ground clove, two drops of cinnamon essential oil, three drop of vanilla essential oil and one tablespoon each of raw honey and coconut oil. Stir it all together until the mixture is smooth and then add one and a half cups of granulated sugar. Mix it all up and scoop it into a pretty mason jar. I cannot get enough of this recipe!

Designer Swimwear

A girl can never have enough designer bikinis. The crochet and lace trend has taken the world by a storm and this sizzling hot trend is definitely here to stay in the New Year. Why not gift your bestie some ultra fashionable designer bikinis from PQ Swim or some sizzling hot and sexy brazilian bikinis from Luli Fama swimwear collection. Stock your bestie up for the festival season to come including the Coachella festival with some hot swimwear from Agua Bendita swimwear. She will rock these sexy swimsuits at the festivals and thank you for all the compliments!

Pajama Party

One of my favourite holiday activities is throwing a pyjama party with my best girls crowd around the fireplace, reflect on the year gone by, roast some marshmallows, watch a sappy chick flick and have a night of unceasing laughter. Why not gift your bestie a pair of cozy pyjamas to keep warm during the winter? The best part is that you will find a little something for every budget. Silk pyjamas are absolutely divine but I would not mind a pair of Minion ones either. Hint, hint.
