With all the online ordering shopping afforded to us these days, it’s getting more difficult to find the perfect gifts for our friends and family members’ birthdays. While certainly, just thinking of your gift recipient and acknowledging a milestone is a lovely thought, when it comes to celebrating women in their 20s, finding a suited gift can be difficult. After all, 25 is a weird time in our lives. We want to be the grown-up we’ve aspired to be, but it’s still nice to receive a gift that doesn’t have to be a hundred percent useful or sensible. Sometimes the best gift surprises are the ones that are indulgent and something they would never purchase for themselves.
Now, the options are so diverse – everything from subscription beauty boxes to “experiential” gifts (which hopefully can be used sooner than later with this pandemic beginning to diminish), or incredibly personalized items or gift cards. With so much ordering from lockdown over the past year, we’ve all had a lot of time to snoop, search and purchase things we’ve been eyeing (and those impulse things we weren’t even looking for!).
While lifestyles of the 25-year-old woman continue to evolve, one thing that remains is that they love getting gifts. If you’re stuck on ideas, let us help you out. We did some scouting and researching and gathered a roundup of the best gifts for a 25-year-old woman.

Uncommon Goods never disappoints with unique, out-of-the-box gifts that people genuinely love to receive. This artwork is made from quilling – intricate, petite paper art – which is the product of a painstaking handwork process, made contemporary through luminous colors and cleverly quilled flourishes. Keep the piece near a light source to charge it for a few hours (most lights will do, but the sun works best), then watch it glow in the dark. From Aquarius to Capricorn, each one-of-a-kind, framed piece makes a delightful birthday gift. It’s made from 110-pound card stock paper in white, 65-pound card stock paper in white and navy, and glow-in-the-dark white acrylic paint. This beautiful gift is $36. Each one is handmade so there are no two exactly alike.
