By: Caitlin Madden
The ultimate self-gifting guide…
Lucky you — you unwrapped the gift everyone was wishing for. A.K.A. a Free People gift card. Now, the question is: how should you spend it? Should you buy that thing you’ve been eyeing for a while? Put it toward something luxe you’d never get on your own? Buy a bunch of little things? Wardrobe basics or something fun?
There are so many options. How can you choose?
Well, since we know this store like the backs of our hands, we have a few ideas. Scroll on for our recommendations on what to get with your perfect, pick-whatever-you-want present.

START AT THE TOP
Kicking things off from the top — top rated tops, that is… Use your gift card to get one of our tried and true favorites, like our viral striped crewneck or a thermal that’s so Free People. Whether you’re an FP loyalist or this is your first time shopping here, these are styles you’re pretty much guaranteed to love.
BUY A NEW BAG
Been carrying the same bag forever? Well, now’s your chance to trade it in for something new. Oversized totes are so back for 2025 and this one is truly better than ever — hello, it’s reversible. So it’s basically two self-gifts in one with vegan leather on one side and vegan suede on the other. We’d say that’s a pretty good use of a gift card.
TRY OUR FP FRAGRANCE FAVORITES
Did you know we have our own fragrance collection? Well, now’s the perfect time to try it. A gift card is the perfect low-commitment opportunity to finding a new signature scent. Give it a go through on of our perfumes (like our newest, Groove!) or maybe a candle! We even have air fresheners so that you can take your new favorite scent on the go.
PUT IT TOWARD SOMETHING LUXE
No matter the value of your gift card, you can always put it toward something special you’ve been eyeing for a while that you haven’t pulled the trigger on yet. Maybe you’ve had a gorgeous, luxe pair of boots in your cart and you’ve just been waiting for the right time to click check out. Well, now’s the time. Opt for something totally timeless and you’ll get more than your (or their!) money’s worth when you wear it for years to come.
STEP UP YOUR WELLNESS ROUTINE
Maybe you want to use your gift card to get a head start on your goals for the new year. Whether you’re looking to ace your at-home workout, practice gratitude through journaling, step up your skincare, or even work on leading a less stressful life — we have all the tools to help you stick to your resolutions and then some.
SWEATERS UNDER $100!
If you got a $100 gift card, you can get some of our all-time favorite soft sweaters completely free. We’ll go ahead and call that FP math. Whether you’re looking for something really funky and different or you’re finally going to get that classic sweater your wardrobe has been missing — go ahead, put it on the card.
