What are you buying your older teen DD?

[Notcontent]

I am looking for inspiration. I know everyone has different likes and needs, but it’s always helpful to find out what other people are buying!

My 16 year old DD really doesn’t need anything and we are both committed to not buying just for the sake of it, but nonetheless I want her to have some gifts to open!

So far all she has asked for is a nice insulated coffee mug, so I bought that today. (Trying to be organised!). I might buy her a couple of bits of make up and nice chocolate for her stocking.

Our eldest will be 15 just before so we are coving birthday and Christmas.
She hasn't asked for anything.
But we have purchased:

Dr martens
Converse
Watch
Some books
Necklace
Pandora charm.

I'm very much stuck with her.

We re getting DSD16

An ifly experience
Theatre ticket
Pyjamas
Hamper of her favourite drinks, sweets and chocolates
Silk pillowcase (good for hair & skin)
Cosy socks
Urban outfitters gift voucher

Mine will probably have a long list of vinyls and books. Maybe some little bits for her room.

I have bought her one of those triangle shaped fluffy pillows for reading in bed.

PJs
AirPods
Good makeup/skincare/hair products
Books
Socks
Warm hat
Perfume
Coffee shop/Nando's vouchers
Nice diary/journal
Bag
Chilly bottle
Fancy lunch box
Lovely Stationery

Stackers jewellery box

DD17:

Record player plus a couple of records
Porcelain doll for her collection
Fortune-telling Teacup & Book
A guitar-pick necklace

Some good ideas! Just remembered she has asked for some vinyl records so I can add that to the list. Oh, and maybe some underwear.

Strap for her camera
Tights (she "borrowed" all of my old fishnets and lace type tights, so I'll get her some of her own)
Henna blocks that we dye her hair with
A string up hammock

My 17 yo DD has more money than me as she's in the military 🙈

Just bumping this for more suggestions.

There was a similar thread recently that might help you.
