Of all the recipients, I think finding good gifts for the guys in my life can be a challenge. Whether it’s your brother, dad, boyfriend, cousin, or a friend, it can be challenging picking out the perfect present. But that is part of the fun, isn’t it? Sorting through websites, thinking of their favorite activities, remembering what kinds of things they love and dislike, and imagining them being thrilled with the final result! Because it’s challenging, it’s worth beginning your search early. I’ll give you a bit of a head start here… I’ve found FIFTY different gifts for guys:

If you find the fifty overwhelming, I’ll let you in on a few of my standout favorites. Tuckernuck’s selection for men is perfect for guys in their twenties; I think this vest is super great and this winter hat is a fun gift for a brother. There’s nothing cliché about this tie, it’s a must have for every guy this holiday season. Mark & Graham’s personalized iPhone wallet is great for dads and this “Guy Stuff” pouch would make any best guy friend chuckle. And the real winner? J. Crew’s nautical ceramic collection is so good that you’ll want to get a matching set for yourself.
What are your must-have gifts for guys?

a little bit of life, a little bit of style, and everything in between.
I literally just went back into your archives to try to find gift ideas for my boyfriend for Christmas ten minutes ago, you are a savior! *prayer hands emoji*
Ugh! Boys are always so hard to shop for! Especially a picky boyfriend. Luckily I hope I can't go wrong with an LSU themed gift (But I would LOVE to get him into that Tuckernuck vest!! ????)

I haven't had to shop for guys for awhile. The only guy I shop for is my youngest brother, because he still believes in the magic of childhood 😛 That can usually be fulfilled with a gift of food or some kind of gaming technology haha -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
LOL at the "Guy Stuff" pouch. These are all great ideas, thanks for sharing!

These are really good ideas! I always have a hard time shopping for my dad and boyfriend. They always pull off the "anything you get me, I'm sure to love it" haha but I recently just bought my boyfriend a watch for his birthday and he loved it!

Boys really are so difficult to shop for. My boyfriend is not picky at all but I simply just never know what to get him! Thanks for all of the tips, Carly. You are the best!!

I'm so proud of myself as this year I've actually figured out (what I think are) some pretty cool gifts for my brothers! For the tech-y one I found a fisheye camera lens that snaps onto your iPhone, for the one who loves music I bought a vinyl record, and for the one that wants to figure out what to wear and when I got True Prep and ABC's of Men's Fashion. I think he'll get a laugh about that one!

These are all such great ideas and I agree, guys are definitely tricky to shop for.

I'm a guy and there is not one thing I saw I didn't love. (Ps: My birthday is coming up, Carly 😉 )
These are all so great! I found my boyfriend and all my guy friends (weirdly) LOVE candles. On the top of my christmas shopping list? Lots of campfire scented candles. Ha. http://www.burnbear.com/shop/campfire
