College graduation gift?
My niece (and godmother to one of my children) is graduating from College this May. We would like to get her something nice. I know cash is appreciated but I would like to get her something more meaningful (even as part of her gift).
For her high school graduation, we got her a really nice Movado watch (prob spent about $600 on it). We would look to spend about the same. I can’t think of any ideas. She has tons of jewelry (Tiffany, Pandora, Alex and Ani) so like to stay away from that stuff.
Any ideas?

What is her degree in? That might help to come up with some ideas best suited for her.

Good idea. Didn’t even think of that. Paralegal Studies. And she is planning on going to Law School.

Re: College graduation gift?
Does it have to be a surprise? It’s a lot of money to spend on something that perhaps the person won’t love. But you know them best. Maybe I’m too picky.
One idea is a nice tote for school/work. LV neverfull or other designer. I’m obsessed with my mz Wallace but not sure if that’s hip for the younger crowd.
Tumi luggage. Nice for professional trips.
Nice weekender back. Check out lo and sons
Diamond stud earrings
Designer wallet with a check inside
Designer makeup bag with gift card
Gift card to stitch fix for professional clothes? Or some other shop
Headphones for commute
Kindle
I’d probably give a check but that’s what I personally would most want (I had a lot of loans!).
If you give a bag/wallet, you can type up a cool inspirational quote on like a business card and tuck it inside a little pocket.
HTH !!!

College graduation gift?
I would take her out to pick out something. Either jewelry or a nice bag that is work appropriate. For my 20th birthday my grandpa wanted me to go to Tiffany’s and pick something out. I went with my mom and randma and got a necklace. He was too sick to come and died on my 21st birthday. That necklace is special AND i got to pick out what I wanted.
