Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If you’re looking for a truly impressive gift for a woman who’s a wine aficionado, this splurge-worthy wine system could be the perfect unique gift for her. Coravin’s wine system gives her the freedom to pour and enjoy a glass of wine from any bottle, at any time, without pulling the cork. Sounds crazy, right? It’s totally legit.
Coravin’s proprietary technology in the new Model Two lets her taste, share, compare, and explore wine like never before. The Coravin Model Two Plus Pack combines Coravin’s most intuitive wine system with a carrying case and three additional needles that leave the cork in place while allowing the wine to flow.
Taste wine from any bottle, even your most expensive vintage bottles, and the Coravin Capsule Load Cell Technology installs 99.99 percent pure argon gas to protect the remaining wine from oxidation, while the cork naturally reseals.

Even the experts agree that saunas have lots of beneficial health impacts, as long as you’re careful to hydrate well.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon In your search for the best unique gifts, a dynamic listening experience is unbeatable. Especially when you choose the Beats Solo3 wireless headphones in juicy citrus red. These can amp up her workout or just let her enjoy her favorite artists, anytime and anywhere. The fine-tuned acoustics maximize clarity, breadth, and balance making for more dynamic base, sharper treble, and overall amazing sound.
Plus, if she’s working, instead of working out, she can take calls, control her music and even activate Siri with the multifunction on-ear controls. The on-ear cushioned cups mean she can wear them all day in comfort, and with a 40-hour battery life, recharging’s never an issue.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Winter weather is rough on the skin, and there’s no better way to rehydrate and refresh like a great face steamer. This unique gift for women is also great for men too. In just 30 seconds, this face steamer powers up and turns clean water into micro-fine particles that help clear pores and blackheads, as well as restores needed moisture.
With a powerful, and consistent mist, it can cover your entire face with cleansing, healing steam for up to 15 minutes, and it features an automatic shutoff when the water reservoir runs dry. With a UV light to sterilize the steam, you’re assured that the water vapor you’re breathing and enjoying is pure and safe.
And why limit her moisturizing steam treatments to home, when she can carry the portable Nano Face Mist Spray Facial Steamer right in her purse or pocket? It’s a great way to refresh during the workday, without ruining her makeup.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This gorgeous grab and go Pendleton blanket is the perfect unique gift to stash away for the woman who loves a spontaneous moment, either outdoors or indoors. With a vintage look that is at home in both rustic and contemporary settings, this beautiful blanket was inspired by the “ombre stripe” blankets that cowboys often carried on the backs of their saddles and unrolled to make camp after a long day on the range.
Because it comes with a cool leather carrier, it’s great to toss into the trunk for an impromptu picnic or day at the lake, and you know you can count on soft comfort with this wool and cotton blend that will help to keep water from seeping through to her bottom. It’s also great to keep in the car for winter emergencies. Just in case it takes a while for help to reach her, it will keep her cozy and warm during the wait.
If your gal has a particular affinity for the national parks, Pendleton has a complete line of national park inspired wool blankets that might really hit her sweet spot.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Leather seats are beautiful, but they can be mighty cold to the touch on a winter morning or burn her bum on those hot summer days. Keep her comfy, no matter what the weather with these sheepskin car seat covers. They are naturally temperature regulating, so even when it’s hot, she’ll stay cool and in the winter she’ll feel like she just tucked her fanny and back into a fluffy fur coat.
If you’re shopping on a budget, or you think a full seat cover might be a bit much for her, you can also get these 18 x 18 in sheepskin seat pads for much less.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If the woman on your gift list is constantly snapping photos with her smartphone, but would really like to shoot higher-quality images on a regular basis, there’s no better choice than a DSLR camera. We’ll tell you, one of our top choices has to be this Nikon D3500 DSLR camera kit that’s got everything she’ll need to express her creativity in full. With 24.2MP resolution, it delivers about 15 times the quality of most standard smartphones.
With this sweet setup, she’ll get the camera body, two zoom lens kits, Sandisk Ultra SDHC 64GB UHS Class 10 Memory Card, a deluxe camera case, 55mm wide-angle and telephoto lens, 55mm UV, cleaning kit, memory card reader, five-program photo editing software set from Corel, and tons of other extras.
It delivers professional-quality photos with very little experience, and once she sharpens her skills, it offers all the benefits of many more expensive cameras on the market. We loved that it shoots 1080p video, and even links to her smartphone via Bluetooth with the Nikon SnapBridge app. A splurge gift perhaps? We say go for it.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon There’s nothing worse than walking out into the daylight and discovering that your makeup simply isn’t right. It’s most likely due to lousy bathroom lighting that doesn’t allow you precise application and color control. That’s what makes this lighted vanity makeup mirror such an awesome gift for any woman who always likes to look her best.
With 72 LED lights, this mirror features three lighting modes and a dimmer switch that allows her to perfectly apply everything from foundation and blush to lipstick and mascara. It also features three different levels of magnification, so products like eyeliner and brow pencil that require precise application will go on so much easier.
If your lady doesn’t apply makeup at a vanity, consider getting her a wall-mounted makeup mirror like this one from Jerdon. Once installed, it easily swings out from the bathroom wall, and it offers a lighted ring, along with regular and 5X magnification options.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This unusual beehive candle is a fun gift for apiologists, or for anyone who likes rustic home accessories. This coiled beehive candle burns for 60 hours. You can set it to self-extinguish after a set time by adjusting where the clip is positioned on the candle. When the flame reaches the clip, the flame will go out. Made from 100 percent beeswax, this candle will lend a nice glow to any room. We also like the addition of tiny bees along the outside of the candle. A similar candle is available that looks like a Christmas tree.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If your special woman is a kitchen goddess who loves to create meals to perfection, this fantastic Joule Sous Vide is an awesome gift for her. She’ll never over or under-cook anything using this clever kitchen tool, because predictably perfect meals are in the bag, literally.
You might be wondering what the heck a sous vide is in the first place. In French, it simply means “under vacuum”, so it refers to the process of vacuum-sealing food in a bag, then cooking it to a very precise temperature in a water bath.
This technique produces results that are impossible to achieve through any other cooking method. Her trusty smartphone, a favorite pot, a ziplock-style bag, and water is all she’ll need to get cooking. With a magnetic base and a versatile clip, Joule can attach to almost any container, from a small saucepan to a cooler.
If she’s cooking a steak, she can simple seal and cook it to the perfect temperature, only requiring a quick sear on the outside before serving. It’s the same with so many other dishes that can be dicey to get right. If your gadget goddess doesn’t have one, give her the Joule that fits in a standard silverware drawer, where she’ll remember to use it.
To make her cooking even easier, be sure to get her a cooking container with a lid that accommodates her sous vide.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This adorable faux leopard print jacket features a notched lapel, long sleeves and oh-so-cozy pockets to keep her hands warm in the coldest weather. Better yet, the comfy cut dolman sleeves never feel bulky in the underarms, so it’s the perfect unique fashionista gift for your lady, and one she’ll be happy to sport throughout the cold weather season and even into the shoulder seasons.
If you’re looking for an awesome faux fur jacket in plus size, Roaman’s has a gorgeous option for a full-length faux fox fur coat in sizes up to 5X.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This rocket-shaped cocktail shaker with a stand is totally retro kitsch. Made from high-quality stainless steel, it adds a touch of Space Race cool to any home bar.

We’re also quite taken with this airplane cocktail shaker and this pineapple cocktail shaker, if you’re looking for additional gift ideas.

These totally weird, totally wacky superheroes include Bee Man (like Batman, but with bees), the Clown (a circus-themed superhero who fights crime), and the Eye (a giant, floating eyeball).

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon I admit it. The minute I saw these slouchy boot socks, I knew they’d have to hit this unique gift list for women. They’ve been a regular part of my “get comfy” outfits ever since. Natch, they’re cozy as can be because they’re knit, not regular sock material. The articulated toe and heel are extra comfy, even after hours of wearing my favorite new boots.
If you’re looking for something super sassy to wear with a mini and your tall boots, the Ozone Women’s Elizabethan Lace Over the Knee Socks are extra adorable.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This fun famous nudes mug changes when hot liquid is added. The outside of the mug features famous nude paintings from history that they’ve added modern clothes to. When hot water or coffee is added to the mug, the clothes disappear. It’s perfect for the art history buff in your life.
Toss in some nice Wuyi Da Hong Pao tea, and you’ve got a complete gift for a tea lover or aficionado of the finer things in life.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon High end board games for adults are a hot holiday or anytime gift. These beautifully crafted games are practically works of art, and they’re totally engrossing. Scythe is a board game set in an alternate version of the 1920s, where humans shared the battlefields of WWI with heavily armored Mechs. Each player takes the role of a faction leader, with the ultimate goal of gaining power over eastern Europe. Players conquer territory, enlist new recruits, reap resources, gain villagers, build structures, and activate monstrous Mech. The game can be played with up to five players, or even enjoyed solo. Each game takes around 90 to 115 minutes to play.
Want more gift ideas like this? Another unusual, beautiful board game we love is Jamaica.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Any special woman on your list will delight in every breeze when you give her this imaginative, innovative kinetic wind spinner. It features swirling, spiraling, and tumbling action that is mesmerizing, whether the breeze is blowing or not. More like yard art with movement, it adds so much visual interest to outdoor spaces.
Crafted from high-quality metal that’s powder-coated for weather and rust resistance, this wind spinner will last for years to come.
While this one has an aged bronze patina, if she’d prefer something a little more colorful, you could also get the Multi-Color Tulip Wind Spinner, with a solar-powered color-changing light in the center.
If your lady is an apartment or condo dweller, without a yard to decorate, no worries. You can get her a beautiful copper wind spinner accented with painted metal spirals that hangs from her porch, patio, or eave.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon There’s no better way to greet the day than with beautifully cheery dishes. This set of four stoneware plates would make lovely gifts for every lady on your gift list, whether you’re looking for a pretty birthday gift or something special, just because. Each plate is hand decorated and features a different, beautiful floral design.
And while they look like traditional stoneware, these ceramic dishes are dishwasher safe, and the perfect size for an egg and a piece of toast for breakfast, or great as salad plates to brighten up the lunch or dinner table as well. The matching dinner plates are a perfect 10.5 inch option, and would certainly beat back any rainy day blues at your house.
If your lady isn’t into such bright kitchen colors, she might prefer the Porcelain Floral 7-inch Bread and Butter Plate Set, which features a beautiful blue and white pattern. Once again, each plate offers a unique design and would be perfect in a modern, contemporary kitchen. Another benefit of small plates is that they encourage everyone to pay better attention to portion control and to more thoroughly savor each and every bite.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon As a rule, we’re a fan of fitness trackers as a really useful way to stay motivated toward reaching goals. What makes the Spire Stone a unique gift for anyone on your list, is that this wearable activity tracker also helps to manage stress levels with a sensor that tracks the wearer’s breathing and detects when they’re experiencing anxiety.
The Spire Stone helps users keep in sync with their mind and body by measuring breath patterns all-day, and alerting them to sudden changes. They can follow their breath-wave, a real-time view of their breathing, on the Spire Stone companion app’s home screen. When breathing becomes rapid or erratic, the Spire Stone will send a gentle notification with actionable next steps.
Its in-the-moment notifications make improving health easy throughout the day, with in-app breathing exercises and guided mini-meditation sessions when needed. Spire charges on an included wireless charging pad, and features a 10-day battery.
Another fitness tracker that’s great for younger women, the Bellabeat Leaf Nature Health Tracker also keeps track of menstrual cycles for women hoping to get pregnant.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon For the woman who loves to savor a good glass of wine, there’s nothing more frustrating than uncorking an expensive bottle and finding a bunch of sediment that impedes her experience. That’s when the Ullo Wine Purifier is simple to slip out of her cupboard. With a beautiful handblown glass carafe, the Ullo features a simple to use filter that not only removes sediment, headache-causing sulfites, and allows her to aerate her wine perfectly before drinking it at the same time.
The elegant carafe is perfect for serving to guests as well, and this cool filtration system comes with six filters and a filter holder. If she’s a regular wine drinker, you might want to purchase some replacement filters so she’s always got one handy when she’s ready to indulge.

This cutie fits women of all different heights and sizes, with an adjustable seat post and adjustable handlebar grips to best fit her wrists.
Air-filled rubber tires ensure both comfort and good traction on a variety of surfaces. It’s reasonably lightweight at a nimble 37.5 pounds and can fold up to be simply stowed in her trunk so she can head to the beach for a boardwalk ride, or keep it in her front closet, ready to zoom around the neighborhood or down to her favorite coffee spot.
When she uses both the pedals and the throttle, she’ll tackle hills with 83% less effort than a traditional peddle bike, and it offers Autoguard – a braking mechanism that ensures she’ll have instant stopping power if someone throws open a car door or a pooch runs out in front of her.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This cupcake pillow looks good enough to eat. We think this would look great in a dorm room, guest room, or girl’s bedroom. It’s a fun gift idea for someone who appreciates a little whimsy. The detail is amazing from the sprinkles down to the folds of the cupcake wrapper. They also offer a vanilla-scented version.
If this has you thinking about funny realistic food pillows, may I suggest a 39-inch long Bread Pillow. It’s practically body pillow size and looks just like a loaf of bread.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If space-saving isn’t your first concern, but you want to preserve her substantial investment in her beauty products, you might want to consider this large Cooluli mini fridge that can accommodate up to 20 liters of cosmetics, snacks, and more. This larger version of the mini-fridge weighs in at 13 pounds and measures 11.25 x 13.75 x 16.25 inches. One advantage we really like is the digital control panel on the front that allows you to set the temperature to your desired range, meaning you can actually approach a real refrigerator temperature, unlike many others.
This unit warms as well, adding to its flexibility. Once the unit reaches your desired temperature, it reverts to eco-mode which means about 50% less power usage. With a fairly wide temperature range, it cools down to 40° below the ambient temperature and can warm up to 149° on the internal thermostat.
It has two internal shelves and an additional two internal storage racks inside the door. While it works on 110-120 volt outlets, it also comes with a car charger.
