I’m outrageously loud and painfully shy and it’s difficult finding a balance between the two.

Hey there, I don't know if you're still doing gift ideas but would really appreciate it if you could help me out! Best friend, turning 21, studies law and plays violin, adores fashion and tea. Normally I just get her a gift card for topshop or something but I want to do something special. Open to anything a 21 year old girl may like. Thanks so much in advance.

[cont.]Oh and I think I forgot to mention, budget of $150!

she’ll probably need something stylish and professional to wear to job interviews and internships and you can’t go wrong with the classic blouse and pencil skirt combo

a cute snazzy backpack so she can carry her laptop and books around

if she likes trying new tea flavors, get her a box of lots of tea samplers, otherwise get her favorite kind and gorgeous porcelain set to serve it in

a statement piece accessory, be it shoes, jewelry or a bag

a subscription to her fave fashion magazing

so there are a lot of knock-off versions of dresses worth thousands of dollars that still look great. look around for something that is of great quality and fits her style. be very careful if buying online however since this knock-off of a breathtaking elie saab for example  uses shadily shopped pics from the actual elie saab show :P (so don’t forget to check out local boutiques and dressmakers)
