As easy as it is to gift a candle and call it a day, a really great present should, obviously, take factors like the recipient’s personality or interests or ~aesthetic~ into account. It’s Gifting 101. But when the giftee has a propensity for the eclectic, often surrounding themselves with items that are either obscure or downright groovy, it makes hunting down the right gift as difficult as aiming for a bullseye...blindfolded. In other words, impossible.
Which is why we’ve teamed up with Urban Outfitters, the purveyor of all things kitsch and cool, and plucked eight products, including color-clashing flannel, flower-embroidered cords, technicolor puffers, and pastel-tinted swirl glass lamps, that your zaniest, most unpredictable friend will love. Ahead, shop these out-of-the-box ideas now.

As much as we'd like to go about our days wrapped in a duvet, walking around with a blanket draped over your shoulders is generally frowned upon in anyone over the age of 4. But being an adult means having to improvise, adapt, and overcome, so we've found a socially acceptable alternative: clothes that feel nearly as comfortable as having a duvet draped around you.
One brand we've found to be extremely good for this is Cuddl Duds, whose range of ultra-cozy base layers and accessories make any outfit significantly warmer and snugglier. Want proof? Ahead, we've put together four full looks that are the (approximate) equivalent of burrito-ing yourself in your sheets, only much more portable and way more stylish.
The universally beloved uniform that is a sweatsuit gets an upgrade with a cowl-neck tunic and matching joggers. For the finishing touch — cozy socks and sneakers.
