Neoflam Retro 3QT Ceramic Nonstick Stockpot w/ Glass Lid, $52, Amazon

If you have a friend who is still using the same pots and pans from college, it's time for an upgrade. Odds are, the ones they purchased for their apartment back then weren't the greatest. So even if you can only upgrade one or two, look for some nonstick options. This one is also scratch-resistant, and it can be put in the oven, too. It comes with a glass lid for steaming and boiling water. Plus it's retro and mint green, so you can't really beat that.

Poppin Super Stacked Desk Set, $74, Amazon

An organized desk space will often lead to higher productivity levels (at least it does for me). This desk organizer is great because you can keep all of the papers for things you need to get done today in one slot, the ones you don't need to do until tomorrow in another, and all your supplies in the top level. The tray comes in really fun colors like pink, orange, red, white, navy, and aqua.

Mud Pie Marble and Wood Serving Board and Spreader, $29, Amazon

If you have a friend who loves to entertain at her new apartment, then you should get them a cool serving board. It's probably time to stop using paper plates and upgrade to platters. Invest in a cool-looking serving board and cheese knife, so they can create some beautiful spreads for their guests.

Mini Pocket Outdoor Blanket, $18, Amazon

Some of the best gifts are unexpected ones that someone might not buy themselves. If you know someone who loves the outdoors, and loves to go on hikes, picnics, to the beach, or even to just hang out in a park, this pocket blanket is a great gift. You can fit two people on it if they are sitting, or one person, if they are laying down. It folds up into a tiny little rectangle and can be tossed in a purse or backpack. It's also waterproof and sand-proof, so they can always use it, no matter the conditions.

S'well Crocodile Stainless Steel Water Bottle, $35, Amazon

Everyone should have a reusable water bottle at this point. They're better for the environment, and there are some pretty cool ones available now. This one keeps your drinks cold for 24 hours and your drinks hot for 12 hours. It's made with triple-walled stainless steel, and it's BPA-free. Because it's vacuum sealed, you won't have to deal with annoying condensation. S'well bottles come in all different colors, patterns, and sizes, too.

KABB Modern Digital Retro Clock, $45, Amazon

If you have a friend who is always late for everything, you should get them a cool clock to keep on their desk or by their bed. Sure, everyone has their cellphone to keep track of time, but there's just something about a tabletop clock. This one is awesome because it's a flip clock, and the numbers flip as time goes on. Set it for them (five minutes fast) before you give it as a gift.

First Aid Kit, $27, Amazon

A First Aid kit is actually a really great housewarming gift. They are good to have around the house or in the back of your car, just in case. This one is fully stocked with Band-Aids, iodine wipes, alcohol pads, first aid tape, an emergency blanket, a burn gel pack, safety pins, medical scissors, blister pads, a CPR mask, and so much more. It's something that people don't often think to buy for themselves and is incredibly useful to have.

Kindle Oasis E-Reader, $290, Amazon

If you have a friend who loves to read, you should definitely gift them the new Kindle Oasis. It's the thinnest and lightest Kindle ever, and it features an ergonomic design that makes turning the page a lot easier. Perhaps the coolest feature, though, is that it has the longest battery life ever for an e-reader (with the leather cover with built-in battery, it can last for months).

Kitchen Aid Electric Kettle, $79, Amazon

I have a friend who is obsessed with drinking tea. She literally always has a cup of tea in her hand. This electric kettle would be the perfect gift for her because it heats up water a lot fasterthan a stovetop version. All you have to do is fill them with water, flip the switch, and wait a few minutes for your water to boil. The adorable kettle comes in pistachio, stainless steel, empire red, hot sauce, black, and blue.

Kate Spade New York 2017 17-Month Large Agenda, $36, Amazon

I'm a big believer in agenda books. I bring mine everywhere with me. It's the only way I can make sure that I'm getting everything done, and I'm where I'm supposed to be, when I'm supposed to be there. This one is great because it goes through December 2017 ( a lot of them only go through June before you have to get another one). It's so beautifully designed and it features yearly views, monthly views, and weekly views.

A lot of young people don't put effort into taking care of their skin. That's why this cleansing brush kit makes such a great gift. It's something I wouldn't buy for myself, but if someone bought it for me as a gift, I'd totally try it out. It comes with three different brushes and removes makeup, dirt, oil, and dead skin without irritating your face. It comes in a great little carrying case, so, it's good for travel, too.

The whole set has a nice little leather strap attached to it, so it can be hung up on a hook, instead of taking up a lot of space like a big broom might.

This fun mug is the perfect gift for any coffee connoisseur in your life.

Oral-B Pro 7000 SmarSeries Toothbrush, $136 Amazon

This is the kind of gift that my dad would give me.

It comes with a timer, two different brush heads, the base, and a place to charge it.

Oenphilia Bali Wine Rack, $58, Amazon

I have this one friend who drinks wine all of the time, but she keeps her wine in a box in the closet. I don't understand it, but I know what to get her for her next birthday. She would probably love receiving this cool wine rack that can store up to ten bottles of wine. In the past she always complained that her wine was taking up space in her kitchen, but if she had this rack, she could place it somewhere and it would become a part of the decor in her home.

Hi I'm Mat Doormat, $19, Amazon

I told my friend I could tell she was a grown-up when she got a doormat for her apartment. She thought I was nuts, but I just think it's one of those things we don't think to buy, but it makes all the difference when you have one. Having a doormat kind of shows that you care about your home, and you don't want people tracking dirt inside. This one is funny because it says, "Hi. I'm Mat." It's a great doormat to keep inside or outside.
