25 Unique Anthropologie Gift Picks On R29 Editors’ Wish Lists

ICYMI: It's December, people. Thanksgiving came and went faster than we could say "Let's eat," and the holidays have officially proclaimed "Season's Greetings!" That means that if you're not going full speed ahead with your holiday gift shopping at this point, there's a chance you're running behind schedule. But for those of us who've barely emerged from our food comas — let alone even thought about navigating the rocky cyber terrain of the online retail world — our shopping team is here to help. And we're kicking off the season with the best Anthropologie gifts — the ultimate spot for fun, funky, and festive finds.

Each year, it's the same story. Finding the perfect present is a daunting task, whether it's for the mother-in-law or for the tween-age niece who calls TikTok her trend bible. And not to get too millennial on you, but sometimes the more choices you have thanks to The Internet, the harder it can be to make a decision and check things off on the ever-growing gifting list. So we narrowed down the best Anthropologie gifts to give you a streamlined list of our editor-approved picks — from candle sets to garden shears, monogrammed journals, and more. We may not personally know the people you're shopping for this year, but we're pretty sure there's an Anthropologie gift for everyone ahead.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

Ugg Classic Mini Platform Boots


"They're expensive, I know. So make sure you give them to someone who's at the tippy top of your nice list this year. Why? A pair of cozy Uggs will, to say the least, change their life for the better." —Alexandra Polk, Affiliate Lifestyle Writer

Anthropologie Monogram Wrap Journal


"One can never have too many notebooks. I love gifting people simple, high-quality journals during the holidays so they can start off the new year with a fresh clean place to write down memories, goals, and lists. This leather wrap option is pretty enough to keep out on a bedside table or stacked on a WFH desk." Kate Spencer, Sr. Affiliate Partnerships Manager

Anthropologie Lumiere Petite Candlestick


"I always think a bundle of candle sticks (tied with a pretty ribbon) makes a great hostess gift, but this time of year, it’s extra sweet to include a classic gold candle stick holder or two. Not only will they add some extra holiday flair to any table or mantle, but they can be used year-round no matter the season or occasion. "Kate Spencer, Sr. Affiliate Partnerships Manager

Anthropologie Flannel Pajama Pant


“Flannel PJs are kind of a no-brainer when it comes to a gift idea that will always delight: your giftee will get tons of wear out of them and let’s face it, receiving some lush PJs feels even better than having to pay for a set yourself. Anthropologie’s line of chic flannel sleepwear features exclusive artworks from designers and illustrators around the world. The standard, petite, and tall sizing makes it even easier to find the perfect fit for your loved ones.” Venus Wong, Senior Travel Writer

Anthropologie Zodiac Collection Boxed Candle


"I am sure I’m not alone in saying that all my friends are obsessed with astrology. I am pretty neutral on the matter (although I’ve never met a Leo meme that didn’t have my personality down to a T), but will be opting for this gorgeous collection of zodiac-themed candles for all my star-obsessed BFFs. Not only is the packaging super aesthetically pleasing, the fragrance notes are floral heavy and all sound super incredible. I also like how there’s a very heartfelt sentence describing each sign under the label." Venus Wong, Senior Travel Writer

Terrain Marble + Wood Cake Stand


"As a host with the mostest, presentation is key. I'll be gifting this sleek Marble + Wood Cake Stand to a friend to use for her family's Christmas party. Unlike some cake stands, I appreciate that this one has a glass dome to keep your desserts or food fresh. The best part is that she can use it all year long because of the sleek aesthetic, and it'll elevate all her Christmas bakes. " Vivien Lee, Affiliate Fashion Writer

Voluspa Crushed Candy Cane Hearth Glass Candle


"I was gifted the small tin version of this Voluspa Crushed Candy Cane Candle, and after the first use, it's up there on my list of all-time favorite festive candles. I'm so in love with the fresh and sweet peppermint scent that I am not complaining if one of my friends gifts me the bigger size. It's a different take on the typical warm and spicy holiday candle, and every guest notices it as soon as they enter my home and ask me where it's from. The cheerful peppermint pattern is also a nice touch when perched on your coffee or hallway table." Vivien Lee, Affiliate Fashion Writer

Anthropologie Small Crystal Tube Hoop Earrings


"You can’t go wrong with a solid pair of hoop earrings. Not only are these super versatile, but the crystal adornment makes them perfectly blinged out for adding some extra sparkle to a holiday look. They also look way fancier than their price tag, which is always a win in my gifting book." Charlotte Lewis, Sexual Health & Wellness Writer

Midnight Rider The Carolita Zodiac Sweatshirt


"Anthro is famous for their monogram gifts, but what if you took that monogram up a notch to… star sign! I am an astrology girlie through and through, and I can’t think of anything better than getting this cozy sweatshirt. Anthropologie quality with quirky zodiac graphics? A double win. Just make sure you definitely know your giftee’s sign before pulling the trigger!" Charlotte Lewis, Sexual Health & Wellness Writer

Anthropologie Festive Bistro Tile Salt & Pepper Shakers


"I just carted up this salt and pepper shaker along with a matching spoon rest for my mom (after she hinted that she loved the festive bistro tile design). These kitchen accessories make for affordable gifts (both come in under $40!) and I think the salt and pepper shakers are a crowd-pleasing gift for a ton of people on your list."

Trek Light Gear Peace Blanket


"It is in my belief that throws are 100% always a great gift for anyone. One can never have too many blankets to snuggle up to, especially during chillier seasons! This neutral-toned blanket is a great addition to anyone’s living room — and the peace sign motif is to die forrrr." Becca Sax, Affiliate Coordinator

Anthropologie Street Style Beanie


"A new beanie is a no-brainer for the colder months, and I always enjoy getting them as gifts because, to me, there's no better feeling than a fresh knit in the wintertime. This one comes in 10 colors, is just the right amount of chunky without being overwhelming, and is made of recycled materials." Kate Spencer, Sr. Affiliate Partnerships Manager

"If you've ever stepped into my home, you know I'm not one for pops of color, but this set of blush-tinted wine glasses are just so pretty, subtle, and would look lovely displayed on a kitchen shelf or bar cart. Plus, the under-$60 price tag and four additional color options could make this a great choice for any type of giftee on your list." Kate Spencer, Sr. Affiliate Partnerships Manager

Which is why this pair is the perfect gift. Everyone needs them. I can’t wait to surprise my besties with this fashionable, cozy to keep their fingers warm all winter!"

Anthropologie Pearl Cluster Crown Headband


"The most I ever do to my hair is blow-dry it, so the chunky headband trend has been a godsend for days when I can't make my hair behave. I also get a lot of compliments on my headbands, and people are always surprised to learn they're all from Anthropologie. I have a few solid colored ones I literally wear with everything from overalls to cocktail dresses, but I also love Anthro's very festive line of sparkly, glittery, and shiny ones for the holidays, and they're especially fun for gifting."

Lano Lips Fruities 101 Ointment Set


"Lano makes my absolute favorite lip-care products. The Aussie brand's hero ingredient is lanolin, or a waxy substance found in sheep's wool. (Don't worry, it doesn't taste or smell like anything on its own, and it's a natural byproduct of the wool industry so it doesn't kill the sheep, though it's not vegan). It's similar to Vaseline or other petroleum-based products in that it creates a barrier on your lips that stops you from losing moisture, but I find it doesn't slip off my lips as easily and is the perfect pre-bed lip mask that will actually still be there in the morning. Plus, it's a perfect purse accessory to protect you and your loved ones' lips from harsh winter winds. Get the set and split them up for easy gifting, or give one lucky recipient all three." —Marshall Bright, Affiliate Editor

Sorel Brex Chelsea Boots


"Black boots are a classic for most people. However, for me, it's white. I already have a white pair of Dr. Martens Chelsea boots, but these ones from Sorel are calling my name. Like, look at that camel-colored sole and the contrasting red strip on the back." —Vivien Lee, Fashion Writer, Affiliate

Matilda Goad & Co. Cocktail Napkins, Set of 4


"I have been following Matilda Goad for a while now. Her designs have such a unique look that it's hard to classify them as one specific decor trend. A little bit granny chic, very British, and with a playful dose of art deco, the brand's whimsical POV makes perfect sense for an Anthro collab. The collection includes everything from an armchair all the way down to under-$50 goods perfect for gifting. I'm partial to the cocktail napkin set that contains four of the brand's cheerful patterns." —Marshall Bright, Affiliate Editor

They're cozy without overheating your feet, and under all that soft shearling, you still have Birkenstock's signature cork footbed." —Marshall Bright, Affiliate Editor
