We can’t presume to know the perfect gift for every wife. But we do know what’s at the heart of the perfect gift for every wife, which is to make her feel seen, heard and cherished. Even 20 years later, after all the jewelry we’ve received, our favorite gift remains a simple set of mixing bowls — because the gift giver noticed that we loved to bake.

Consider then, your wife’s rituals, routines and hobbies: Does she relish her a.m. flat white? Does she enjoy arranging fresh flowers in that just-right vase? Is no day complete without pajama-party story time with the kids? Perhaps she maps out the best running route or scouts out the best museums in every town she visits. She may collect things — houseplants, handbags, candles or cardigans.

Your job is simply to notice your wife’s particulars — and then consult our list of 92 great gift ideas to show her you’ve been paying attention.

Made of chunky midweight knit woven in a traditional knit style, this cold weather classic is the brand’s signature beanie, so you know it’s warm and soft.

Slip Blossom Nights Pillowcase & Scrunchies Set

View On Amazon $63 View On Nordstrom

Banish bad hair days forever with Slip’s set of good-hair-day-only essentials: A 100 percent silk pillowcase and three skinny silk scrunchies. Silk is kinder and gentler on both hair and skin than typical sheet fabrics — it keeps moisture in and causes less wrinkle- and frizz-inducing friction, which is probably why this pillowcase has won multiple awards, is dermatologist approved and hairstylist approved. Who’s ready for beauty sleep?

SolaWave Skincare Wand with Red Light Therapy & Serum Kit

View On Amazon $71 View On Solawave.co

Seriously impressive before and after pictures are what sold us on this trending skin care device. Users show tighter, brighter skin with fewer dark spots and pimples, and slightly more sculpted cheekbones. There’s lots of tech at work here—red light therapy, galvanic current, therapeutic warmth, facial massage — but all we need to know is that it takes three minutes a day, it doesn’t hurt, and it works. A plumping, hydrating serum is also included in the bundle so she can get the glow on straight away.

It was love at first sight with these furry shearling and suede gloves. They look luxurious and feel like fuzzy soft pillows on your hands, yet aren’t so delicate that she’ll be afraid to actually use them while going about her daily life.

Oribe Oribe Lust Collection Set

View On Amazon $115 View On Sephora $92

Devotees adored the scent of the Oribe haircare line so much that they successfully lobbied for a perfume version. That’s how good this stuff smells.

The limited-edition three-piece set features Gold Lust Shampoo, Gold Lust Conditioner and Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil for serious hair hydration and rejuvenation.

With three attachments, including one just to create that enviable high gloss finish we all want, she’ll be able to style her hair any way she wants. Major bonus points to Shark for designing this hair dryer for specific hair types: one for straight to wavy hair and one for curly to coily textures.

Who’s ready for a beach vacation? (Hands raised.) When wanderlust comes calling, this bikini top answers. Made by Fort Lauderdale-based, female-founded swimwear company Montce, the adjustable top is comfortable and well made with a heaping side of saucy.

They’re also shockingly comfortable, so she’ll be on her feet from the first song to the last and every dance in between.

View On Lilysilk.com

Leave the parkas and puffers for weekend walks and kid pickup, because when it’s time for adulting, she’ll need an elegant wool-blend coat that is as chic and sophisticated as it is soft and cozy. This one from Lilysilk is made from the prized undercoat of Mongolian goats and ultra-fine merino wool, so it’s lightweight and breathable but retains heat. We love the built-in hood for extra warmth and the matching belt for a snatched waist. Snag it in one of two classic neutrals, black or camel.

Rebecca Minkoff Julian Small Crossbody

View On Bloomingdales $278 View On Rebeccaminkoff.com

This is not a diaper bag. It’s a playful but edgy, bit of rock ‘n roll leather crossbody from Rebecca Minkoff that is an identity all her own. Made with on-trend fringe and plenty of antique silver hardware, including the designer’s signature dog-clip, it’s roomy enough for the all the essentials (including a diaper, actually) but compact enough for everyday wear. Comes in white and black with silver or black hardware, plus carmello (caramel), elephant/gunmetal (light charcoal) and nude.

Vinebox 12 Nights of Wine

View On Getvinebox.com

Vinebox 12 Nights of Wine is a fun way for wine lovers to discover new favorites — and an excuse to drink every night for nearly two weeks (woo-hoo!). The Cozy Collection has a dozen glass vials of sommelier-curated reds from Italy, France, Spain and California. The Chill Collection features whites, rosés and a few chillable reds. Comes with tasting notes, pairing suggestions and virtual tasting videos. Food and Wine calls this gift set “wildly popular,” which is probably why it sells out every year, so you might want to nab it now while it’s on pre-sale.

MM LaFleur Jolie Jardigan

View On Mmlafleur.com $245

What exactly is a jardigan? It’s a fun portmanteau — a word combining jacket and cardigan, but what’s important is that it’s about to solve many wardrobe quandaries in one fell swoop. That’s because it has the professional fit and structure of a blazer but the feel of a sweater, which makes it perfect for work, weekends and those nebulous occasions in between when she might be unsure of the dress code. Comes in five colors and sizes from XS to XXL.

Bloomscape Olive Tree

View On Bloomscape.com

Potted olive trees are being hailed as “the next big thing” in the interior design world, but that’s not the only reason they make a great gift for plant moms. Unlike fiddle leaf fig plants, last year’s design darling with ginormous platter-like leaves that take over a room, the olive tree is its gentle cousin, slow-growing and graceful, with delicate sage-green leaves and a slim trunk. When bathed in bright sunlight, it should even bear fruit within a few years. Choose medium or large in one of five colored eco-pots.

Murray’s Cheese Better Than Cake Tower

View On Murrayscheese.com

If she loves cheese, she probably knows the 60-year-old New York legacy brand Murray’s Cheese. And either way, she’ll definitely love their gourmet cheese tower. Not only will it make an impressive centerpiece for charcuterie night, a cocktail party or any gathering, but the four specialty cheeses will be some of the tastiest she’s ever had. We’re huge fans of Alisios, a creamy tangy goat cheese, and Cave-Aged Original Buttermilk basque, an earthy yogurt sheep’s milk cheese. Repurpose leftovers for lunch with crackers, fruit slices and salted nuts.

Vuori AllTheFeels Legging

View On Vuoriclothing.com View On REI $98

It’s a scientific fact (we’re pretty sure) that you’re more likely to do something if you feel good and look good doing it. For exercise inspiration, enter leggings made with Vuori’s new BlissBlend fabric, a performance stretch knit that’s super soft and doesn’t constrict — but still hugs your shape in the most flattering way.

View On Cosabella.com View On Bloomingdales $125

Extravagant lacy undies are the kind of splurge many people resist buying for themselves, perhaps out of guilt — but they’re only too pleased to receive them as a gift! The thong undies in this five-pack by lingerie giant Cosabella are made from the brand’s soft-stretch scalloped signature lace and have a mid-rise fit, with wide stretchy lace at the waistband, which makes them comfy and flattering. Comes in several color combos but we’re loving the Roaring Burgundy. Available with a complimentary silk bag because, fancy.

Parfums De Marly Delina Coffret

View On Neiman Marcus $495

We’ve officially lost count of the compliments we get on this French floral scent, and have even gifted bottles to its most arduous fans. The eau de parfum is both feminine, with bright notes of Turkish rose, lily of the valley and peony, and sensual, with deeper notes of vanilla, white musk, cashmere, cedarwood and incense. All you need to know is that she’ll feel like a queen wearing this happy, heart-warming fragrance — and you will be her king. 

Karen Millen Faux Leather Pocket Detail Shirt

In case you missed the memo, leather (real or not) is the “it” fabric of the season, and you don’t have to be a punk rocker to pull it off. In fact, this faux leather button down from elevated British brand Karen Millen is quite elegant — with a classic collar and patch pockets. The best part: She can pop it on over a simple tee and voila, instant outfit. Comes in sizes 2 to 12.

View On Blvck.com

Just as pop artist Keith Haring was inspired by graffiti, your wife will be inspired by his art on the cover of this blank hardback notebook, a limited-edition collaboration with style house Blvck Paris. And just as Haring drew with white chalk on the black paper covering vacant advertising panels on city streets, the pages of this journal are black, to be used with two silver and gold gel pens (included) for a more authentic Haring experience. Comes in a gorgeous black box with silver Haring figures. For passionate fans of the artist, consider adding the collection’s heart-embellished cardigan, a blend of wool and cashmere in sizes XS to XL.

Every woman deserves a nice piece of luggage, and July has all the right stuff. Their Checked Plus hard-sided bag, made from durable polycarbonate, has cool features we love, including a hidden laundry bag to keep stinky socks away from clean tops, a compression mechanism that lets you overpack and still zip up easily, and lots of compartments — including for a laptop and portable charger. Smooth wheels and an adjustable telescoping handle make this bag a breeze to use for slightly longer trips — or anytime she’s going to Paris and needs all the ’fits. Add free personalization to make it extra gifty.

CQC Dune Reversible Quilt

View On Afternoonlight.com

This handmade cotton quilt, with warm pinks converging on a golden sun, is more a work of art than a bedspread, but lucky for us, it’s both. Handcrafted by four different types of artisans — using wood carving, block-printing, dying and stitching, it’s made in small batches and features an entirely different design on the reverse. Perfect for the décor aficionado who doesn’t want her home to look like everyone else’s.

We’re not taking ours off, you know, just to make sure.

Take Nespresso’s easy, convenient one-button brewing and add automatic milk-frothing options — and she’ll never miss her latte before morning carpool again. With the Vertuo Lattissima, she can create velvety cappuccinos or add hot foam to coffee or espresso at the press of a button. There’s no guesswork — or any manual work for that matter — involved. Make a small cup, a big mug, or a whole carafe. It uses her same favorite VertuoLine coffees and espresso capsules but takes them to a whole new level.

Henne Wren Pant

Who needs another pair of black pants? Your wife does, because these tailored trousers are only the chicest she’ll ever wear. In a wool blend with a flattering high-waist and wide leg, they’re on-trend for fall-winter 2023 but are a timeless style built to last. We like to pair them with a simple tee and sneakers for a polished but edgy look, but they can easily dress up with a blouse, sweater or the matching Wren Blazer.

If backpacks feel young and briefcases feel old, the Goldilocks special is this new quilted tote from MZ Wallace. We love that it’s super chic — you’ll see these on the streets of Manhattan, and it’s actually practical — lightweight nylon doesn’t add weight; padded handles and a crossbody strap make for easy carrying; and it zips easily over our 13-inch laptop. Plus, there are six interior pockets, two exterior pockets, a removable pouch and a key ring strap. We mean, it’s the total package. Comes in five colors, also in small and micro sizes.

Aviator Nation 5-Stripe Hoodie

Barbie fever lives on in this neon pink striped hoodie from California’s surfer-approved brand Aviator Nation. But if pink’s not your wife’s thing, we urge you to choose another color combo (there are 23 to choose from), because this zip-up sweatshirt is the definition of luxury — an everyday item made special. It is ultra soft and yummy, especially when paired with the matching sweatpants. She will reach for it every single day (really).

Candlelight dinners get a refined, minimalist upgrade with handmade white ceramic candle holders from Lostine, an artisanal lighting and home furnishings company based in Philadelphia. In two glazes — Dove, a soft white matte, and glossy Cream, they’re sold separately but take on the look of an art installation when displayed in groups.

MOTHER High Rise Flare Jean

View On Neiman Marcus $172

Denim aficionados hail Mother as queen of the jean. We don’t even have to describe the Hustler Patch Pocket High Rise Flare Roller style (in new hue Save Your Soul, a perfectly washed black), because these leggy ladies sell themselves.

This Sunday Citizen throw blanket is so dreamily snuggly soft, there must be some wizardry behind it. They say the fabric is “microfiber,” but we’re calling it “magicfiber” — and your wife will, too, the moment she feels the plushness with her own hands. This throw is somehow also lightweight and breathable, and comes in 19 delightful designs in multiple colors, though we’re huge fans of the Cusco and XOXO designs — 10 out of 10.

Garnet Hill Cashmere V-Neck Pullover

View On Garnethill.com

This 100 percent cashmere V-neck sweater is a beautiful basic she’s likely to wear on repeat. Because it’s Garnet Hill you know it’s well constructed, and because it’s cashmere you know it’s super soft. We love the relaxed fit and the dolman sleeves that are rib-knit just below the elbow, matching the flattering rib knit at the hem. She can feel extra good that the cashmere is produced in accordance with high animal welfare standards and is traced through the supply chain from herders to the final product.
