What to get 14yo girl for bday present

[Anonymous]

Kendra Scott necklace would be appreciated by most girls that age. Clothes are a bit harder as sizing plus kids have different styles.

I’m also a huge fan of books I can probably think of some by my girl that age is very into fantasy genre novels. That’s a good age for even something like Dune. I always just get the Barnes and noble gift certificate in case they have it or it’s not to their taste.

FFS, not everything is a “micro-aggression” or “patriarchal” or “heterosexist”. People like you are exhausting.

I was a tomboy and would not have really treasured any super gendered gift card

Well, OP will obviously use her personal knowledge of the kid she's giving a gift to to decide if they are a good fit for Sephora or Amazon. She asked for suggestions and they've been provided. My 14yr old would be delighted with anything on that list!!! You do you

I don’t know if you are the PP, but then make some suggestions. The condescending “this is so heterosexist” (especially when the suggestions are accurate for the majority of 14 year old girls) is just unhelpful and reeks of virtue signaling.

And probably spot on

I don't know how old this kid is, but the parents may not be happy their 14 year old is trying to buy $100 in makeup.

Honestly OP, nothing speaks like a crisp bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A 14 year old is in HS. I really don’t police what my teen chooses to buy with gifted money or gift cards. That is what they are for, to buy things they wouldn’t ordinarily get.

You might be ok with your 14 year old wearing makup. Other people are not

Sure, and I’m guessing OP would know whether the close family friends are against a 14 year old wearing makeup.

Sephora gift card, target gift card, 5 year journal, nice costume jewelry (the thin little beaded bracelets are nice and easy to wear), hair accessories, tasteful body care and lotions, a book, sports stuff if she is in to that (shirt, bag), small cute purse, fun socks.

They like a lot of stuff so not too hard.

Mine would hate Sephora or Kendra Scott anything. She loves athletic wear so a Dicks gift card or Nike store gift card would be well received if those stores are close by.
Amazon is also easy as they sell brands she likes for sportswear as well.

While I think many would love the suggestions above, a Nike gift card is a great gender neutral gift I think most teens would be excited about. In addition to sneakers, my DD loves Nike socks and these biker shirt things - so plenty of options.

I agree with this. All types of girls can find something at the Nike store. (Or, similarly, a Dick's Sporting Goods store, which has Nike attire alongside a ton of other stuff.

Ordinarily, I would 'second' the Starbucks gift card, but my three teens are currently boycotting so if you don't know the girl's politics, I'd avoid it for the time being.

Not a purse — they don’t use those.

I think even the girls that don’t wear makeup like Sephora and ulta as many of them are really into good lotions and anti-acne stuff and shampoo. I think even the male-identifying trans kids I know get stuff there.

Mine couldn't spend $100 at Sephora and would hate the jewelry but could at Hot Topic (I know) or Old Navy. I would go with the crisp bill the PPs have suggested.
