Graduation Gift Guide
Graduation season is almost upon us! When I look back at my final months at The University of Alabama, I can't help but feel bittersweet. I was ready to graduate but not ready to leave behind all the fun memories I had made! To help these graduates navigate their new lives, I have put together some of the best gifts you can get for your grad!
College Trinket Dish
If there is anything I love in this world, it is a cutie dish to place my jewelry! When I saw these customizable ring holders for any university, I knew it had to make the gift guide. There is nothing more special than small reminders of your alma mater, and I know this would make me smile every time I saw it on my dresser!
Work Bag
One of the scariest parts about postgraduate life is finding a job. Make the experience a little nicer by buying your graduate this adorable work bag. I am obsessed with all of my BÉIS products, and their work tote is no exception. I love how slick the bag is, but it can literally hold everything you would ever need to bring to work!
Pearl Bracelet
If you're looking for a more sentimental gift, this gold pearl bracelet is perfect! While pearls are gorgeous to look at, they also represent protection and luck, two things a postgrad is looking for. All of my jewelry from Mejuri is of the highest quality and has lasted me for years, so it's a great bracelet at a great price!
Pink Dutch Oven
For many postgrads, moving into a new apartment is the first step of their new life. I was obsessed with all the cooking supplies people got me when I moved into an apartment, and I know I would have freaked out if someone bought me this pink Dutch oven. Not only is it practical, but so many people are picking up baking as a hobby, so you might start someone's baking journey!
Customized Stationery
I have never felt more adult in my life than when I received custom stationery. While it can seem like such an outdated thing, there is nothing more special than receiving a letter from someone in the mail. So, this is the perfect way to remind grads of the value of a handwritten note (and to keep in touch!).
Miss Dior Perfume
Finding your signature scent is something that can transform your daily routine and confidence. However, perfumes can be super expensive, so treat your grad to one of my signature scents, Miss Dior. I promise this perfume is worth the investment! It smells light and florally, and it lasts all day!
Hair Air Styler
One gift that never fails is the gift of perfect hair. I have been using my air styler for years, and my hair comes out perfect every time without the damage! The best part about the styler is that it dries your hair, curls it, and helps give it volume. It's perfect for travel as it can do so many things without packing multiple styling stools!
Keepsake Box
As someone who is very sentimental, I am obsessed with the idea of a keepsake box. You can customize everything about the box for your grad, and it is the perfect way to store any and all physical items they have saved from their time at university. I can imagine gifting this to my friend and continuing the tradition with other big milestones like a wedding or having a baby!
Gold Locket
As a little girl, nothing felt more special than receiving a locket. Not only is it a gorgeous necklace, but it has the ability to hold a photograph of a memory close to your heart. If you're buying this for your grad, feel free to put a picture of you two in the locket to make it extra special!
Customizable Tray
When I moved into my first apartment, I loved that I had so many trinkets to make the space feel more homey. One of the items I thought was so cutie was a customized tray to keep in your living room or on your dresser. I think small details like this feel comforting and will help your grad's apartment look and feel put together!
Making this gift guide has me excited to treat the grads in my own life! If you're also graduating and looking at gifts for your friends, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU! Be the girl that just went for it and take the world by storm!
