The Hollywood Reporter has rounded up gift ideas for just about every type of recipient, but there's one very quintessential catch-all that is great for nearly everyone: the gift basket. This type of offering is best for gifting colleagues, clients, and friends, as it's an easy way to show gratitude without getting too personal. Thanks to the internet, you can not only buy festive floral arrangements online, but now you can purchase gift baskets and boxes from the comfort of your home.

For a gift that gives back in more ways than one, opt for a bundle from The Little Market. This non-profit organization (co-founded by Lauren Conrad and Hannah Skvarla) is dedicated to the economic self-sufficiency of women worldwide through dignified income opportunities. Each item is made following fair trade principles, ultimately contributing to a life-changing sustainable income and giving back to the people who made it. The Little Market's With Love Gift Set is a thoughtful way to surprise a special colleague or sibling. You can customize this package (and most of The Little Market's sets) by switching up the object or candle scent to your liking.
