When someone says they enjoy giving gifts more than they enjoy receiving them, it usually elicits a big fat eye roll from us. Who do you think you’re kidding? Everybody loves presents. Everybody loves getting gifts. Nice try, Mother Theresa, but there’s no use in lying about it.
But don’t get it twisted—we appreciate the sentiment. Gifting does offer a great feeling. After all, the only thing better than being surprised with a super thoughtful present is to be the one doing the surprising. That moment when you know you’ve found a stellar gift that’s perfect for your loved one…it’s a good one. Between birthdays and apartment warmings where you need cute hostess gifts, bridal showers and anniversaries, it seems like there’s always an occasion on the calendar that requires wow-worthy gifts. With that said, one of our favorite tips is to keep a small stockpile of go-to presents so you never find yourself empty-handed or scurrying around the mall at the last minute.
Luckily, Amazon is the answer to all of our gifting prayers. No matter what or who you’re shopping for (say your mom, sister, boyfriend, girlfriend or best friend), you can find it at the mega retailer’s site. The gift options are quite literally endless, even dauntingly so! But fret not because we’ve perused all that Amazon has to offer to come up with a list of the best, sure-to-delight gifts available—and that includes the best gifts under $50, top gifts for women, and best gifts for men, too. Our non-negotiable criteria? Items had to be unique, high-quality, practical, and chic, because nobody has time for anything else these days. Below, our top picks for Amazon gifts to add to your cart now.
FLATTERING JOGGERS
7/8 Jogger Travel Pants

Editor’s note: Many of us own these joggers and are absolutely in love with them. What first sold us was that reviewers mentioned how similar these are to Lululemon’s On The Fly jogger, which cost about three times more. Fast-forward to us collectively owning multiple pairs. A great gift for any woman who likes comfortable, flattering pants. And let’s be real, who doesn’t?
MEGHAN MARKLE-APPROVED EARRINGS
14k Gold Three Diamond Amigos Curve Post Earrings

If these diamond curve post earrings look familiar, it’s because Meghan Markle wears them on repeat. To give you a sense of just how versatile these beauties are, the Duchess wore them to Commonwealth Day 2018, throughout her and Harry’s Royal Tour of Australia, and numerous royal engagements in London. Case closed.
HIGH-GLAM SUNNIES
Air Heart Sunglasses

If these glamorous and slightly oversized sunnies look familiar, it’s because Meghan Markle sported this exact pair during her 2019 baby shower. Shoppers, note that these fan-favorite shades have a track record for selling out very fast.
