The only thing more challenging than being a 14-year-old girl is probably trying to shop for one. But don’t fret yet; we’ve scoured the internet (and spent many hours scrolling through TikTok) to find the hottest trending gift ideas for 14-year-old girls. Whether she’s full cottagecore or more of a tomboy, there is something for everyone on this list, like galaxy projectors and make your own mochi dessert kits.
Let’s make her birthday, Christmas, or another special occasion the best one yet with one of these awesome and unique presents for 14-year-old girls!
55 Cute Gift Ideas for 14-Year-Old Girls
What are you waiting for? Let’s dive in before you need a list of what to get for 15-year-old girls.
One of the hallmarks of being a young teen girl is definitely an obsession with redoing your room. They’re hitting an age where they might prefer spending a bit more time in their room, so making it reflect their changing tastes and preferences is critical. These string lights are a classic room decor choice, and these ones even have little clips for hanging pictures, concert tickets, and other mementos. These lights are perfect for a teenage girl because she can change the photos and memorabilia clipped to the lights to match her new interests and pals. These sleek and stylish bracelets look like a simple silver cuff, but the inside reveals a sweet message of support and inspiration. If we remember correctly, 14 is an age riddled with insecurities and self-doubt, so a secret and personal reminder could help them deal with some of those negative thoughts. You can choose from up to 100 unique messages (okay, full disclosure, we only counted to 60, but it’s probably over 100) that best suit the recipient. Kitchen experiments were always such a fun part of after school hangouts with friends. This book is chock full of easy-enough recipes for new hobby bakers to get their feet wet without biting off more than they can chew (like that time we tried to make custard from scratch as a 14-year-old…yeah, that was a fail). But decadent fudgy brownies and savory three cheese and sausage lasagna are achievable recipes that teens will be proud to bring to the table! Loungewear is to Gen Z as middle parts and skinny jeans are to Millenials. Okay, now that we’ve given every reader terrible SAT flashbacks (who’s terrible idea was standardized testing, anyway?), we can get back to the heart of the issue— picking the perfect color block or tie-dye sweatshirt so that the 14-year-old girl you’re shopping for thinks you’re hip. Hopefully, it works as a gift for your 14-year-old teenage girl! But don’t worry if not, we still think you’re pretty cool. Back in our day, people who still bought records generally made it an essential aspect of their hipster personality. We’re not sure precisely what this younger generation calls their record-buying peers, but we’re confident we’ve seen them roaming around Urban Outfitters staring at record players that look just like this one (with double the price tag). As a bonus, this record player has Bluetooth capabilities for streaming music from a smartphone. Plus, it comes in 12 cool colors and patterns (we’re particularly fond of that lavender hue) and makes a great gift for 14-year-old girls with style. Ring in your niece, little sister, or daughter’s 14th birthday in style with one of these chic and simple beaded necklaces. This necklace is a great everyday piece that’s easy to style and wear with loungewear or dressed up for special occasions. There are 14 beads— one for each year she has added a dose of fun, youth, and sass to your life. The world needs more women in science. Full-stop. If you disagree, kindly move on to another item description. For those of you that are still here, we strongly suggest throwing away those antiquated notions of “boys are just stronger in maths and sciences” and encouraging young girls to follow their strengths! This inspirational book highlights 50 incredible women who made amazing contributions to the modern world. Who knows, maybe they’ll make a second edition featuring the fearless young scientist you gave this book to! What is the best way to keep your teenagers from sneaking out and getting into trouble? Make their room so comfortable they never want to leave it. Okay, that’s probably not actually the best way, but we’re currently cuddled up under some fuzzy blankets, so our judgement might be skewed. Anyways, this luxurious throw blanket feels like a hybrid between a cloud and a cartoon sheep, and we want to be wrapped up in it like a burrito 24-7. The soft dove gray hue is the perfect neutral shade to complement a variety of decor and hide any food stains. Boy Smells is an emerging candle brand with a coolness factor that makes Yankee Candle look like a loser (sorry Yankee Candle, we don’t mean it, please don’t take away our favorite Christmas scents). Anyways, these Boy Smells candles are the perfect way to impress a young teen girl who thinks you’re woefully out of touch. These candles are pretty much perfect for gift giving because teens love them, but they’re slightly too expensive for them to justify buying one with their babysitting money. Portable speakers are an investment, but this one is so conveniently sized, waterproof, dustproof, and could likely carry her all the way through to college. These speakers are perfect for days at the beach, jamming out to tunes in the shower, picnics with your pals, or her future hand-me-down car with a broken stereo (anyone given a nice car at 16 should be fined, crappy cars build character). Coming from the generation that grew up watching Jersey Shore, we felt like complete outsiders applying sunscreen. However, this younger generation seems to be more invested in protecting and taking care of their skin than our peers using tanning oil, and we couldn’t be more proud. Giving a young teen this splurge-worthy sunscreen is also an awesome way to encourage them to start building good skincare habits. You’re never too young to start! The entire time that we watched and then re-watched Euphoria, we couldn’t help but wonder— do modern teens really wear that much makeup and glitter on a daily basis? Young girls and guys have significantly more resources for learning how to apply makeup, and it seems to be more accessible and acceptable to wear and have fun with makeup at this age. This biodegradable glitter is perfect for playing around with their friends, Halloween costumes, or getting ready for fun events. Plus, it’s biodegradable, making it way more environmentally friendly than the glitter we were wearing at that age. In case you, like us and countless others, have been wondering what the deal is with that squarish backpack all the young kids seem to be wearing, we would like to introduce the Fjällräven Kanken Backpack. This one is another serious status symbol for the younger generation, but it’s definitely a bit of a splurge if you’re used to picking up a Jansport bag on sale at target. We think this would make an awesome Christmas or birthday present for a 14-year-old girl, and teens seem to be particularly fond of the yellow-hued option. While looking at velvet scrunchies gives us hardcore flashbacks to our early years as a competitive gymnast, apparently not everyone shares our embarrassment trauma (oh, the lycra and velvet combos we wore back then were rough). Just like so many other 90s staples, scrunchies are back with a vengeance. This pack of 12 is a wonderful stocking stuffer or small surprise gift for a 14-year-old girl. Just like scrunchies, hair clips are also making a return. However, we think the small butterfly hair clips we so adored as a child might not make the cut this time around. These larger claw clips give off a modern-day Phoebe from Friends vibe and are super convenient for keeping hair out of your face when studying, baking, or eating a frosted donut—we’ve never understood how people eat sticky foods with their hair down. While Christmas-style string lights will always be a classic in home decorating, our TikTok sleuthing has determined that these LED strip lights are more popular amongst the cool kids these days. We hate to deliver this news, especially since we literally just received more uncool string lights in the mail two seconds before we wrote this sentence. I guess we’re returning those lights as we re-part our hair in the middle for the 5th time today, all just to convince young kids we’re still relevant. TikTok waits for no one, and if your niece, daughter, cousin, or granddaughter wants her videos to look top-notch, ring lights are the not so secret, secret to success. This set comes with a tripod and phone stand, making it perfect for recording makeup tutorials, funny dubbed videos, and all of the latest dance trends. Let’s all be honest with each other quickly; teenagers can be a bit moody. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some sign or object you could quickly look at and see if your teen is in a good mood or if you should quietly slide bars of chocolate under her door and run away? This plush octopus could be just the ticket. It has a happy side and a reversible grumpy side, so your teen can flip the octopus to let the world know how she’s feeling. Does anyone else remember trying to use those horrible oil-absorbing sheets in the bathroom between classes to try to deal with your terrible teenager skin? We’ve watched so many videos of people testing out this oil-absorbing face roller on Instagram that we currently have one in the mail on the way to us, and we’re sure your favorite teen will appreciate it as well. It’s always cuffing season if you’re rocking a cuffed beanie, and these Carhartt hats are the perfect accessory. Over the past few years, we’ve seen a drastic rise in Carhartt beanies amongst our Instagram feed, and we totally understand why. This winter staple comes in an array of colors, has an awesome fit, and is great for hiding bad hair days. This beanie would make a great stocking stuffer for tomboys and fashionistas to spread a little joy and warmth this Christmas. If you’re convinced your teen is still too young for makeup, but they keep pushing for more cosmetics, this color-changing lipstick could be a happy compromise. It’s significantly more discreet than some of the makeup on the market today and enhances the natural color of the user’s lips. Plus, it reacts to the pH level of the wearer to change colors, which is pretty cool. This pillow is undeniably cute and cuddly. It could instantly brighten anyone’s day or bedroom decor because how could you be sad looking at a happy little avocado with an adorable face? They come in two sizes, so you could even give her an entire avocado family to make her bed extra cozy. We can’t lie; we love a good polaroid moment. Whenever our friends bust out one of these cool cameras, we’re instantly ready for the fun and cool pictures. For many teens, so many of their photos and memories are just online, unlike previous generations who grew up getting their film developed at the local shop. That might be why polaroids have made such an epic comeback because it instantly gives users a hard copy of their picture, a novelty many younger people aren’t used to. Plus, if you gift them a camera, you’ll always know what to get them for their next present—more film! You could hit on all of the VSCO girl trends with a single gift, thanks to this convenient accessories kit. If you’re unsure if your teen, niece, cousin, or granddaughter is a VSCO girl, this Buzzfeed quiz could help you figure it out. From what we can tell, some key signs to look for are a Hydro Flask water bottle covered in stickers and multiple pairs of Crocs. If that sounds like the girl you’re shopping for, then this accessories kit could be the perfect gift! Say goodbye to silver, bold gold jewelry has been making moves to take the top spot for stylistas. This set of dainty gold necklaces is a chic choice for aspiring fashion icons or just anyone who wants to upgrade her usual outfits with some cool accessories. The recipient can wear the necklaces together or separate, but we’re big fans of the layered look. Sheet masks are a super fun gift for young girls just starting to get interested in skincare and beauty trends. Sheet masks, in particular, offer both skincare benefits as well as opportunities for fun #selfcare selfies. This set of 12 would make a great stocking stuffer or addition to a girly gift basket. If you’re shopping for someone who already owns a load of scrunchies, then you might want to pass on the packs of hair accessories listed earlier. Instead, you could help them organize all of their scrunchies in a convenient and cute way. This scrunchie stand has a weighted base to make it extra stable, and it can hold up to 30 scrunchies (depending on thickness). Tie-dye has taken on a new life these past few years, and we are massive fans of its pastel-hued resurgence. This co-ord set is perfectly on-trend to make your young teen loungewear #goals. This comfy outfit is a great choice for after-school chilling out, a little yoga session with mom, or cute summer pajamas. We’d probably wear it 24/7, so you might want to get two sets for your favorite young teen! Candy that’s funny and cute enough to post on her social media? That’s a winner for any 14-year-old girl still obsessed with unicorns. These unicorn butts come in assorted flavors like blueberry, grape, lemon, cherry, and more. But, just in case unicorn butts aren’t her vibe, they also have alien butts, chicken butts, and even elf butts if you want to get a little seasonal. As we’ve mentioned before, you can’t really go wrong with trendy home decor for a teenage girl. This fun cinema lightbox has 200 letters, so she can write up whatever phrase or saying best fits her vibe that day. They come in three different sizes with varying numbers of lights to brighten up any room. Bucket hats are back, and we’re not afraid to admit we already own one or two ourselves, but none quite as cute as this fun reversible print hat. This hat is a budget-friendly accessory that will instantly make any outfit selfie-worthy. It comes in 17 different prints, most of which reverse to black, so the recipient can always choose if they want to go neutral or make a bold statement. Slouchy color block t-shirts are an easy-to-style staple perfect for school or hanging out with friends. This t-shirt, in particular, is cropped-ish, so it could still be dress code appropriate when paired with high-waisted jeans (please don’t let Gen Z bring back low-rise pants, we beg of you) and look super cute with shorts in the summer. Croc charms are a thing, and although we may not fully understand it, we know a fair few people that are really invested in their croc charms, and they happen to be younger VSCO girls. So, that means if you’re unsure what to get for a VSCO girl, Croc charms could be an awesome and unique choice. These sets come with a wide variety of charms, from sloths to Hydro Flask water bottles covered in stickers. Once again, if you’re unsure whether or not the teenager you’re shopping for is a VSCO girl, kindly refer to the Buzzfeed quiz linked above for some telltale signs. Speaking of Hydro Flask water bottles, these guys are another status symbol for the younger generation, and we can’t say that we’re mad that Gen Z is making hydration cool. If the 14-year-old girl you’re shopping for doesn’t own one of these yet, then this is a no-brainer. Pair it with a pack of fun stickers to show you’re in tune with the trends. Is your daughter, niece, cousin, or little sister trying to become the next Olivia Rodrigo? With this handheld karaoke microphone, she can belt out the chorus to “Drivers License” at the top of her lungs for all the neighbors to applaud. The microphone connects to cell phones or other electronics via Bluetooth to play any songs from Spotify, Youtube, or other music apps. It’s a great choice for the budding pop star in your life. Here is another TikTok famous product that will turn your daughter, niece, or granddaughter’s room into a selfie hangout hotspot for all her friends and secure your spot as the supreme gift giver. Plus, did you notice that budget-friendly price tag? These window covers are also great at giving young teen girls a bit of extra privacy while still being able to have their blinds open and get gorgeous sunlight. Chuck Taylors will always be cool, and frankly, we don’t want to be in a world where they aren’t. Pairs of white high-top converse, specifically, are all over every social media, so you might as well get your teenage girl a pair before she asks for them so she’ll think you can read minds or that you’re super stylish. This platform pair has a little extra lift, which we find more comfortable than the thinner soled originals. Any Ari fan probably already has one of her impressive array of perfumes on their wishlist. We like this one in particular, primarily because it’s exactly what young girls imagine fancy perfume bottles to look like. Regardless of the scent, which is fruity and feminine, the gorgeous bottle will look elegant displayed on her vanity or shelf. Does your teen groan every time they see twinkly lights? While it was a peak choice of decor in our dorm decorating days, many teenagers aren’t fans of the Christmas all-year-round look. Instead, these galaxy projectors are gaining traction all over the modern teen-style book, aka TikTok. This projector turns the user’s ceiling or wall into an intergalactic escape, perfect for filming cool videos or taking unique selfies. With this cute cushion, your young teen can turn any nook or cranny into a cozy spot for reading, writing, studying, or relaxing. This 70s-style floor pillow could be a particularly good gift for a young girl who doesn’t have a dedicated desk or relaxing space in their room, especially as their homework load ramps up in high school. Cosmetic bags are useful for so much more than just cosmetics. Personally, we use one for storing extra cash we don’t want to carry in our wallets, one for storing small craft supplies, one for pencils and pens, and then, of course, like three others for makeup, nail polish, and all of those other beauty necessities. This personalized one is a sweet gift for any young girl and great for organizing her school supplies in her backpack! Shirt jackets are an excellent layering piece for crisp fall days or chilly spring mornings. This one comes in an array of neutral and bolder plaid flannel style patterns, so you can find the design that best fits her emerging aesthetics. Plus, just imagine how cute she’ll look in her winter weather selfies wearing this jacket and an adorable beanie. Does your young girl want a touch of greenery in her room but can’t really be trusted to keep a plant alive? Succulents thrive on neglect and make a wonderful starter plant for those with a burgeoning green thumb. These come in simple and stylish planters that will match a wide variety of decor. Making friendship bracelets is such a fun bonding experience and activity for crafty young girls (and guys and non-binary baes). The internet is full of friendship bracelet patterns ranging from easy peasy lemon squeezy to more intricate and artistic designs. Maybe, your favorite teen will even make you a bracelet to show that you’re BFF4L (best friends forever for life). Winter break just got so much cozier with a pair of these slippers on your teen’s feet. These fuzzy pieces of heaven will look effortlessly trendy and stylish paired with her favorite loungewear or her classic mom jeans. They have a rubber sole so she could even rock them on quick trips to the shop to stock up on movie snacks. If your favorite teen is head over heels in love with mochi, the adorable and delicious Japanese dessert, then she’ll probably be pumped to try making some herself! This kit has almost everything she needs to make up to 32 pieces of flavorful mochi. All she has to do is pick up some sugar and her favorite ice cream (or put it on the shopping list for her parents to buy). Are you helping to foster a baby film buff? The world definitely needs more fierce females in film production, so we’re here to encourage young actresses, producers, directors, and screenwriters. This poster has 100 bucket list films, from The Godfather to Mean Girls, ready to be scratched off after viewing. Are you helping to raise a little nature nerd instead of a film buff? Well, then this scratch-off poster might be better suited for her outdoorsy tastes. This one features all 63 of the US’s national parks as of 2021. You can personalize the title at the top to make it customized for your favorite budding adventurer. Here is another fun DIY activity for creative youngsters! This kit comes with all the supplies your daughter, niece, cousin, or granddaughter needs to create four one-of-a-kind spa day essentials, including a face mask, salt scrub, lotion, and aromatherapy rollers. If you’re lucky, maybe she’ll let you do a face mask with her. Under Armour is a reputable brand for sportswear, and these comfortable joggers are no exception (although we’d probably just be wearing them for lounging, not lunging). But she’ll need some cute and comfy pants to match the adorable tops we’ve already put on the list. Whether or not she wears them to work out is totally her business! Being a teen is challenging enough; being a teen dealing with breakouts might just seem like the end of the world. Whether it’s because of school stress, hormones, or constant face mask-wearing, pimples always seem to pop up at the most inconvenient times. These little patches are honestly super effective (we’ve been using them for a few years now) and relatively subtle. These little patches could make a great Christmas stocking stuffer or a little helpful surprise for someone struggling with their skin. In general, teenagers today seem way more in touch with their emotions and in tune with their mental health than previous generations. As this younger generation breaks the taboo around mental health, it’s important that adults support them and let them know that you are a safe space and person to talk to. This embroidery kit can help you send that message to your teen and give them a fun craft to try. Dainty, minimalistic hoop earrings, just like this pair, have been spotted on most of the major celebrities and influencers your teen probably follows on social media. And, to be fair, we totally understand why. They’re simple and elegant enough to go with essentially any outfit and be worn every day, making this a classy gift idea for a 14-year-old girl. From working out without tangles to drowning out the sounds of her other siblings while trying to study, your niece, daughter, or another young teen in your life might have more of a need for high-quality headphones than you realize. As a bonus, if you’re desperate for a last-minute gift that she’s sure to love (and the price isn’t an issue), these headphones can arrive the next day, courtesy of Amazon Prime shipping. What better way to end this listicle than with ultimate cuddle clothing? If winter weather is keeping your teen indoors, then you might as well help her get as comfy and cozy as possible! This fuzzy blanket hoodie keeps popping up on our social media, and we have to admit it’s one of the comfiest looking things we’ve ever seen. We can totally imagine cuddling up in this wearable blanket during sleepovers, movie nights, or immediately after opening it on Christmas day.Photo Hanging Clips String Lights
