A Galentine’s Gift Guide for Your Work Bestie
I don’t know about you, but I love celebrating my gals this time of year. February reminds me how lucky I am to be surrounded by many incredible women—especially the ones who sit by my side all day, every day: my work BFFs.
Work besties are damn near irreplaceable. They hype us up when we need a dose of courage to ask for a raise, let us vent when we’ve had a tough day, and never hesitate to make us laugh during meetings—no matter how hard we try to hold it in.
Whether you’re celebrating Galentine’s Day (shoutout to Leslie Knope) or want to thank your work bestie for everything she does for you, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite year-round gift ideas. From body care and wine subscriptions, to candles and cozy work-from-home attire, the following items will have them feeling loved in no time.
Offering luxurious skin, hair, and body care products created with attention to detail and sustainability in mind, Aesop is a Certified B Corporation and Leaping Bunny approved—meaning all products are vegan and cruelty free.
The Igneous gift kit is the perfect way to remind them that they deserve a little TLC. The kit includes two body care staples (Geranium Leaf Body Cleanser and Geranium Leaf Body Balm) in a recycled paper pulp case. It’s perfect for travelers.
Book of the Month is a subscription box for bookworms, readers of all speeds, and those who love snail mail. Each month, subscribers get access to early releases and vetted quality books. There’s a range of genres to choose from, and subscribers can add extra books to their box, or skip a month for any reason.
If your #workwife is an avid reader (or even someone who loves to buy books), a three-month subscription to BoTM is an excellent option to help them elevate their book-buying experience.
We love La Colombe and its simple mission: “change the world by making people happy.” What started as a vision for serving the best coffee turned into an opportunity to influence long-lasting change. La Colombe offers everything from coffee to tea and equipment to merchandise and apparel.
If your work bestie thrives with a warm cup of coffee on their desk, treat them to the Be Mine Gift Box, complete with an XOXO Medium Roast and accompanying mug. (Caffeine is synonymous with “I love you,” isn’t it?)
Bright Cellars is a monthly wine club subscription that curates wine to subscribers' tastes, and delivers directly to their doorsteps. TL;DR: you can’t go wrong with a Bright Cellars subscription for your wine-loving work bestie.
Bright Cellars will send your recipient a digital gift card when you purchase a two-month (or any other) gift subscription. Then, your bestie will take a short taste palate quiz to ensure the best bottle for them. It’s that easy!

Health and wellness editor Marina Khidekel founded Hugimals after her failed personal quest to find a portable, less hot weighted. When she couldn’t find the type of product she was looking for, she created it—and her entrepreneurial journey began. Hugimals are high-quality, adorable, weighted stuffed animals that combine the emotional connection of a favorite stuffed animal with all of the incredible benefits (less stress, calmer, better sleep) of a weighted blanket.
All of the Hugimals are super cute, but there’s something about Sam the Sloth that I can’t get enough of! For long-distance coworkers, it’s the perfect gift that will “hug them back” when you can’t be there IRL.
Founded in 2014 by Ariel Kay as an online store focused on creating impeccable bedding, Parachute has since expanded into many areas of the home and opened several brick-and-mortar locations across the U.S. Think all things cozy—bedding, slippers, robes, towels, and so much more.
Gift them a pair of Shearling Wool Clogs to make work-from-home days even better. Parachute refers to them as “fluffy clouds for your feet.”

An online marketplace for makers and their unique creations, Uncommon Goods is a space where shoppers can find fun, creative, and exciting gifts for their loved ones. Thousands of packages leave the home of Uncommon Goods in Brooklyn each day. The company is environmentally conscious, gives back, puts people first, and is a Founding B Corporation.
