Ideas needed - she has told me that she "doesn't need a birthday present. If I need something, I'll ask you and you will get it for me."
She is a wonderful, mature girl who is not into name brands, styles etc. or doing her hair or makeup. She is pretty simple with great hashkafos, very hardworking, not very artsy. I was thinking of a good (non-fiction) book maybe about emuna, tefillah, etc. But was not sure which with all the choices out there.
My other idea was a simple, classy piece of costume jewelry - links would be appreciated.
Last year I got her a nice overnight/weekender bag for traveling.
Because of current life circumstances, I need to be able to order the gift online with easy returns.
Any book recommendations or other gift ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Unless you have a very specific relationship with your daughter, don't get her books about emmunah, bitachon, tefillah... It almost seems like it sends a message that you don't believe she's doing enough in that area. Unless of course you always have conversations about it and you know it's something that she's working in and would like
That being said, if she said she doesn't want gifts, what about taking her out to a special birthday dinner or something like that. You know maybe spending time with her would be more appreciated

Would she appreciate a new wallet or wristlet?
Is she going to seminary? Maybe a nice journal?

I dont think she would take a book that way. She owns books like that and I think she enjoys them
Any other ideas?

I am still thinking about books, so ideas welcome.
But if I go the jewelry route, would either of these work or are they not in? She would do classic jewelry over super trendy - but not nerdy. other good links appreciates. I deally not over $75, can be less, though!

I don't think she would do a bag, not so into it. We have gotten her so many journals over the years because that is HER, so good call - but want to do something different this time.

A nice watch - or is that out of your budget
I know you said she’s not into trendy, but cloverleaf bracelets are really nice

what is a cloverleaf bracelet, is that a brand? I am not sure she will wear a bracelet. What sort of necklace is classic but in style for older teens?
I am still stuck on the book idea, you really think that something along the lines of living emumna will be taken as mussar to her? Any recommendations of what the girls like?
