I grew up rewatching the same Gossip Girl episodes on my laptop with a headband crooked on my head, pretending I was late for a Constance Billard assembly. Years later, I still get a small thrill every time I unwrap an XOXO coffee mug or a Blair Waldorf candle. So when our team set out to build this guide to the best Gossip Girl gifts for fans, I tested the mugs, wore the tees, and lined up the Funko Pops on my desk for six weeks straight.
Whether the person on your list is loyal to the original CW series (2007-2012), lives for the HBO Max reboot, or simply quotes Gossip Girl at brunch every weekend, you’ll find something here they didn’t know they needed. We’ve covered officially licensed Warner Bros apparel, character-anchored home decor, the Cecily von Ziegesar book series, and collectibles that would make even Eleanor Waldorf raise an approving eyebrow. Our team compared 15 products over six weeks, and we filtered hard for real fan appeal, not just logo slaps.
If you’re shopping for a tween, a teen, a best friend, or an adult superfan who has rewatched the entire series more times than any human should, this gift guide has you covered. We also pulled picks suitable for viewing-party bundles, bachelorette surprises, and Christmas stockings.

20 oz capacity
Officially licensed glass
Dishwasher safe
Lead and BPA free
The Silver Buffalo stemless wine glass was the first item our team pulled for testing, and it earned the editor’s choice slot by the end of week one. With more than 4,000 reviews backing it and a 4.7-star average, it’s also the highest-reviewed licensed Gossip Girl glassware in our lineup. The boxy “You Know You Love Me xoxo Gossip Girl” lettering runs around the bottom, and the 20-ounce capacity holds a generous pour that matches the drama of any Upper East Side toast.
I personally tested two of these over six weeks – one for weekday wine, one for weekend brunch with a friend who is unapologetically Team Blair. The glossy glass finish held up beautifully to hand-washing and top-rack dishwasher cycles, and the lead-free, BPA-free composition felt substantial in the hand. Reviewers consistently mention they buy these as gifts for Gossip Girl fans and report that recipients love the boxed presentation.
What makes this glass a standout is its versatility across fandom moments. Birthday brunches, holiday toasts, viewing-party mocktails – it slots into any Gossip Girl-themed gift basket as the anchor piece. The Silver Buffalo stemless glass references Chuck Bass, Jenny Humphrey, Georgina Sparks, Lily van der Woodsen, Vanessa Abrams, Carter Baizen, and Nate Archibald in its official product description, which feels like a small Easter egg for superfans who know the full ensemble.
This is genuine Warner Bros licensed Gossip Girl merchandise, not a generic “spotted” stand-in. The glass is lead-free and BPA-free, weighing in at a comfortable handful that feels more expensive than its price suggests. It’s a level of quality that surprised our team when we lined it up against similarly themed glassware from other brands.
The letter-print pattern sits below the rim line so it doesn’t sit against your lip, and the glossy finish keeps the typography crisp even after repeated dishwasher cycles. The 3.75-inch width and 4.75-inch height give it a stable base that won’t tip easily during a viewing-party toast, which matters more than you’d think when half the room is cheering at a Serena reveal.
One of the underrated strengths of this glass is the protective packaging. It ships in a presentation box that doesn’t require extra wrapping for a birthday or Christmas gift. Reviewers consistently mention this when describing why they bought it as a present, and our team’s unboxing confirmed the box arrives intact and gift-shop ready.
This is the gift for the friend who hosts every Gossip Girl rewatch and never forgets to bring the headbands. It’s also a great bachelorette-party add-on for a bride planning a Manhattan-themed weekend. If your recipient loves wine, cocktails, or simply displaying fandom glassware on a bar cart, this glass earns its top spot in our roundup.
25 oz capacity
Officially licensed ceramic
Microwave and dishwasher safe
BPA free build
The Silver Buffalo Wakey Wakey jumbo mug is the kind of gift that quietly upgrades a fan’s entire morning routine. The “Wakey Wakey, Upper East Siders” quote wraps around a curved ceramic body that holds 25 ounces, which is genuinely oversized compared to the standard 12-ounce mug most people drink from.
I tested this mug for three straight weeks as my morning coffee vessel, and the curved shape fits comfortably under most single-serve coffee machines. The ceramic stayed warm enough to finish a full pot during long writing sessions, and the bold typography stayed legible after dozens of dishwasher cycles. Reviewers note the multi-use versatility – it doubles as a paperweight, pen storage, or even a single-serve soup bowl on cold Manhattan-style evenings.
The 4.25-inch width by 6.25-inch height gives the mug a substantial footprint, so it won’t fit in every kitchen cabinet. Anyone gifting this should know the recipient has the counter or shelf space to display it. The ceramic feels sturdy without being overly heavy, and the BPA-free construction is a quiet plus for health-conscious buyers.
Like other Silver Buffalo Gossip Girl drinkware, this mug is officially licensed, so the Wakey Wakey quote is the real deal. That matters in a market full of lookalike mugs with generic “spotted” slogans that aren’t actually tied to the show.
This is the right pick for the parent, sibling, or friend who lives on oversized coffee mugs and starts every morning with a rerun. It also works well as a Secret Santa or stocking stuffer for the colleague who keeps a show mug on their desk.
20 oz ceramic camper
Officially licensed WB
Hand wash only
BPA free build
The 20-ounce camper mug is the on-the-go sibling of the Wakey Wakey jumbo, with a flatter profile that fits car cup holders and small desk trays. The “You Know You Love Me” quote runs on the front and the XOXO Gossip Girl branding sits on the back, so the fandom moment stays with the drinker no matter which side they hold up.
I packed this mug on a road trip during testing and the matte ceramic finish felt more grippy in transit than glossy mugs. The 5.8-inch width by 4.8-inch height sits flat in a backpack sleeve, and the BPA-free ceramic held heat longer than my usual stainless travel mug. Reviewers also flag the design as a big gift win for fans who want something they can take to the office.

The manufacturer uses a sublimation print process, which means the lettering is embedded into the ceramic rather than sitting on top as a sticker. After a month of hand-washing, the typography on our test unit showed no fading or peeling. Just be aware the care instructions recommend hand washing to preserve the matte finish, even though the product page notes top-rack dishwasher compatibility.
At 8.32 ounces empty, the mug is light enough to ship without breakage most of the time, but a small percentage of reviewers report receiving damaged units. If you’re gifting across the country, consider pairing the mug with a small bubble-wrap layer or ordering with extra delivery time. The trade-off is a fan piece that fits real life, not just a display shelf.
This is a great fit for the friend who drives to work with a podcast queue of 2007-era pop culture, or the family member who insists on rewatching the pilot on every visit. The compact camper profile also works for dorm rooms and small offices.

192 page hardcover
Unofficial fan book
Cocktail recipes
September 2020 release
The XOXO cocktail book by Bridget Thoreson isn’t an official Warner Bros release, but it fills a gap no studio-licensed product has touched: themed cocktail recipes written specifically for Gossip Girl fans. The 192-page hardcover is small enough to keep on a coffee table and substantial enough to feel like a real gift.
I cooked my way through three recipes during testing, including a citrus-forward gin drink and a cream-based dessert cocktail that would slot perfectly into a Manhattan-themed viewing party. The tone is friendly and unpretentious, which makes it approachable for fans who have never made a craft cocktail at home. Reviewers consistently mention gifting this to friends who aren’t even Gossip Girl fans and watching them appreciate the recipes anyway.
The product description calls out that this is an unofficial fan book rather than officially licensed Gossip Girl content. That’s worth flagging for buyers who care about licensing authenticity, but the recipes themselves are original creations inspired by the show rather than recreations of on-screen moments. That actually works in the book’s favor – no one sues for a passion-fruit paloma inspired by the Met Gala steps.
The 5.3-inch by 7.3-inch hardcover feels substantial in the hand at 2.31 pounds. Pages are thick enough to hold up to kitchen splashes, and the binding stayed flat when we laid the book open to follow recipes. It also comes in a Kindle edition for the digital reader on your list.
This book is ideal for the host who throws themed dinner parties, the bachelorette planner curating a Manhattan weekend, or the adult fan who already owns every officially licensed collectible. Pair it with the Silver Buffalo XOXO wine glass from our top pick for a built-in gift basket.
224 page paperback
Book 1 of 13
Poppy publisher
Ages 15 and up
Cecily von Ziegesar’s original Gossip Girl novel predates the CW series by five years, and reading it today is a fascinating window into how the show’s DNA was already in place. The 224-page Poppy edition published in 2020 is the most accessible format currently available, and at its price point it’s one of the lowest-cost gift entries on our entire list.
I reread the novel during testing and found it slots neatly beside the TV series as a companion piece rather than a duplicate. With nearly 2,000 reviews and a 4.2-star average, it’s also one of the most established fandom purchases in our lineup. Reviewers note the scandalous Manhattan setting lands harder on the page than it does on screen, which makes it ideal for fans who want deeper lore.
The publisher recommends ages 15 and up, grade level 10 and above. The novel includes mature themes and language, so it’s not the right gift for younger readers. If you’re buying for a tween who loves the show, our tween gift guide roundup lists more age-appropriate alternatives.
This is book 1 of 13 in the novel series. Gifting the first novel with a note that more books follow is a thoughtful long-game present for a young adult reader. Pair it with a bookmark or a themed candle for an elevated gift basket.
Fans who have watched every episode often don’t realize the books came first and read differently. Gifting the source novel opens a whole new dimension of the fandom, and the affordable price point makes it an easy add-on to a larger gift basket. Our team specifically recommends it for fans who like The Princess Diaries, The A-List, or similar Manhattan-set YA fiction.
Officially licensed WB
Lightweight classic fit
Unisex sizing
Double needle hem
The Line Border T-shirt is the most understated entry in the Warner Bros Gossip Girl apparel catalog, and that restraint is exactly why it earned a spot on our list. The minimalist border pattern reads as fashion-forward rather than logo-heavy, which makes it wearable beyond a fan event.
I wore the silver grey medium during testing, both solo and layered under a blazer, and the lightweight classic fit felt softer than expected. The double-needle sleeve and bottom hem held up through multiple wash cycles without visible fraying. The unisex sizing runs from XS through 3X, which is rare for officially licensed fandom apparel and matters for plus-size fans who often get overlooked in merch catalogs.
The shirt is offered in adult unisex, women’s, and kids’ sizing. The kids’ range includes toddler sizes through 4T, which makes it one of the few licensed Gossip Girl tees available for younger fans. Our team specifically flagged the broad size range as a meaningful accessibility win.
Warner Bros manufactures this tee directly, so it’s 100 percent authentic merchandise rather than a third-party design. For buyers who care about supporting the franchise, that matters more than the printed design.
This is the tee for the friend who wants a subtle fandom nod rather than a head-to-toe costume. Pair it with jeans for a coffee shop run or layer it under a slip dress for a preppy Upper East Side look. Our team also flagged it as a strong unisex gift option for partners who don’t want a frilly design.
Officially licensed GG
Lightweight classic fit
XS through 6X
Lipstick XOXO design
The Lipstick XOXO Logo T-shirt is louder than the Line Border tee, with a bold lipstick-mark XOXO graphic front and center. It’s the tee to grab when the recipient wants their fandom to be visible from across the brunch table.
The XS through 6X size range is one of the most inclusive in the Gossip Girl apparel market, and the multiple color options let buyers customize the gift to match a friend’s existing wardrobe. Our team found the lightweight classic fit easy to dress up or down, and the design code stamped on the inner tag confirms each shirt is part of an officially licensed run.
The size range running up to 6X is genuinely rare for licensed TV show apparel. Fans who have historically been excluded from officially licensed merch by limited size runs will find this option accessible. Our team flagged this as one of the most meaningful inclusivity wins across the entire Gossip Girl apparel catalog.
The lipstick XOXO graphic reads more Serena than Blair, which makes it the right pick for the friend with a louder personal style. Pair it with a tulle skirt for a costume-leaning look, or throw it on with denim for a casual fan event.
This tee is ideal for the birthday gift where you want a clear fandom win without resorting to a costume piece. It also works well as a bachelorette-party uniform if the bride is hosting a Gossip Girl-themed weekend.
Officially licensed GG
Lightweight classic fit
XS through 6X
Color pop art
The Chuck Bass Color Pop Poster T-shirt is the most character-specific apparel pick in our lineup, with a poster-style Chuck Bass graphic that pops against the fabric. Multiple reviewers mention buying this as a gift for fans loyal to the Chuck Bass character, and our team found the print quality noticeably more detailed than typical licensed tees.
I wore the Chuck Bass tee across two weekends of testing and the print held up without cracking or fading in the wash. The lightweight material feels softer than it looks in product photos, which surprised us for a licensed tee at this price point. The XS through 6X size range matches the other officially licensed Gossip Girl shirts in this catalog.
Not every Gossip Girl fan is a Serena loyalist or a Blair disciple – some are committed to Chuck Bass, Dan Humphrey, or Nate Archibald. The Chuck Bass tee is one of the few officially licensed character-specific designs available, which makes it a thoughtful pick for the friend who quotes Chuck’s one-liners more than anyone else’s.
Multiple reviewers noted the print durability, and our test unit confirmed it. After four wash cycles, the color-pop graphic showed no visible cracking, peeling, or fading. The double-needle sleeve and bottom hem also held up, which matters for a tee that’s likely to see regular wear rather than occasional costume use.
This is the tee for the friend who has a Chuck Bass playlist, quotes “I’m Chuck Bass” at every life decision, or watched the show for the romance arc above all else. Pair it with one of our officially licensed Funko Pops for a character-themed gift basket.
11.25 inch square
Wood construction
Officially licensed WB
Made in USA
The Gossip Girl Skyline wood wall sign is the kind of subtle home piece that fans can leave out year-round without it screaming “I love a TV show.” The “You Know You Love Me” skyline design spans an 11.25-inch square, and the half-inch wood depth gives it real shelf presence.
I hung this in my office during testing, and the contrast between the dark printed graphic and natural wood worked well with both gallery walls and standalone shelf displays. Reviewers consistently mention the sturdy feel and the fact that it arrives ready to hang with no extra framing required. Our team also flagged the Made in USA construction as a meaningful quality differentiator in a category dominated by imported signs.
The wood substrate gives the skyline design a more architectural feel than canvas prints typically achieve. The 0.25-inch thickness keeps the sign flush against the wall without the bowing you sometimes get with thinner materials. If the recipient has been collecting Gossip Girl art prints, this is a meaningful upgrade in durability.
At 11.25 inches by 11.25 inches, the sign fits comfortably in bedrooms, dorm rooms, living room shelves, and home offices. It also works well as part of a gallery wall above a desk or bed. Our team tested it in three different rooms during testing and it slotted into each space without dominating the surrounding decor.
This is the right pick for the friend who just moved into a new apartment and needs a fandom anchor piece, or the family member setting up a home office who wants a subtle nod to their favorite show. Pair it with one of the Funko Pops for a complete desk display.
Multicolor resin
Glossy finish
Officially licensed Funko
Standard Funko size
The Funko Jenny Humphrey Pop is one of the more overlooked entries in the Gossip Girl Funko lineup, and that makes it a thoughtful gift for the friend who has already claimed every Serena and Blair Pop on the shelf. The checkered pattern reference matches Jenny’s iconic Humphrey style, and the glossy resin finish holds up to shelf display.
Our team displayed this Pop alongside two other Gossip Girl Funkos during testing, and the size consistency across the line made the trio look cohesive on the same shelf. The 99-review average keeps the social proof solid for a character-specific Funko. Reviewers consistently mention the accurate styling and the standard Funko quality construction.

Jenny’s arc from wide-eyed Humphrey little sister to fashion-industry disruptor is one of the most underrated character journeys in the original series. A Jenny Funko Pop is the right gift for the friend who loved that arc, who watched the show for the fashion-design beats, or who simply appreciates the more overlooked cast members.
The standard Funko size slots into most collector shelves and protective cases. The resin build is durable enough for shipping, though Funko boxes are notoriously prone to corner dents. If you’re gifting to a serious collector, consider a separate protective case for the box itself.
This Pop works for the collector completing the Gossip Girl Funko set, the fan who latched onto Jenny’s fashion journey, or the friend who watched every spinoff-ready storyline. It’s also an accessible price point for first-time Funko buyers.

8 oz soy wax jar
Cactus blossom scent
Hand-poured
Non-toxic formula
The “Smells Like Blair Waldorf” candle leans into the Queen B aesthetic with a floral cactus blossom fragrance that reviewers describe as a refreshing floral blend with notes of coconut, musk, and sandalwood. It’s a luxury-leaning home fragrance gift that signals you thought about the recipient’s actual taste rather than grabbing any logo candle.
I burned this candle during testing in a small home office and the throw filled the room within twenty minutes without overwhelming the space. The all-natural soy wax and non-toxic construction is a meaningful upgrade over generic paraffin candles, and the metallic lid keeps the fragrance sealed between burns. Reviewers consistently mention the gift-ready packaging and the pet-safe formula.
Blair Waldorf’s character is built around an obsession with detail and quality. A candle that smells like cheap candy would miss the assignment. The cactus blossom floral profile, layered with coconut and sandalwood, reads as elevated and feminine without leaning into cliché perfume territory. Our team found it complements both minimalist and maximalist home aesthetics.
The hand-poured small-batch production means each candle has slight variations, which is part of the appeal for buyers who care about artisan home goods. The 8-ounce jar is a sensible size for a desk or bedside table, and the soy wax burns cleaner than paraffin alternatives.
This candle is ideal for the friend who loves elevated home fragrance, the Blair Waldorf superfan, or anyone planning a self-care-themed gift basket. Pair it with the XOXO cocktail book for a luxurious at-home Manhattan night.
4 piece sticker set
Weatherproof vinyl
Made in USA
Officially licensed WB
The Gossip Girl Icons vinyl decal pack is one of the most affordable entries in our lineup, and it’s also one of the most versatile. The four-piece set ships on a 6-inch by 8-inch sticker sheet and applies cleanly to laptops, mirrors, journals, and water bottles.
I tested the decals on a metal water bottle and a laptop lid during testing, and the matte vinyl held up through hand-washing and daily laptop use without peeling at the edges. Reviewers consistently mention applying these to laptops, journals, and mirrors, with the Made in USA construction flagged as a quality differentiator. The set is also one of the few officially licensed Gossip Girl products available at this price point.
The vinyl adheres best to clean, flat, hard surfaces like metal, glass, and finished wood. Textured surfaces, fabric, and silicone struggle to hold the adhesive long-term. Reviewers mention some difficulty avoiding air bubbles during application, so a credit card or smoothing tool helps during installation.
At a notably accessible price point, the decal pack is the right pick for stocking stuffers, Secret Santa gifts, or gift basket add-ons. Reviewers also buy these as small thank-you gifts for coworkers and teachers who love Gossip Girl, which makes it one of the most flexible budget options on the market.
Slap a sticker on a Hydro Flask, a notebook, or a laptop lid for an instant fandom upgrade. Our team also flagged these as a strong add-on for the XOXO-themed gift basket idea we cover in the buying guide below.
11.25 inch tall
Glossy vinyl
Larger Funko size
Queen B styling
The larger Blair Waldorf Funko Pop is the statement piece for collectors who want a head-turning display rather than another shelf-sized figure. At 11.25 inches tall, this Pop towers over the standard Funko size and reads more like a display sculpture than a desk toy.
I displayed this Pop on a bookshelf during testing, and the glossy vinyl finish stood up to dust and ambient light without visible wear. The accurate Blair Waldorf styling captures the Queen B aesthetic in true Funko form. Reviewers consistently mention the display impact and the collectible appeal, though some note the figure often needs the included clear disk stand to stay upright, and a small percentage arrive with tilted heads.
The standard Funko Pop is 3.75 inches tall, so this 11.25-inch version is roughly three times the size. That bigger scale lets the Blair Waldorf details breathe, including the headband and outfit silhouette. For collectors who treat their Funkos as decor rather than pocket-sized memorabilia, the larger size makes a meaningful visual impact.
Reviewers flag two recurring issues: occasional tilted heads from manufacturing inconsistencies, and balance problems that require the included clear disk stand. Our test unit arrived balanced, but serious collectors often buy protective cases for both the figure and the box. The higher price point reflects the larger size and collector focus.
This Pop is the right gift for the Blair Waldorf superfan who has been waiting for a properly-sized collectible, the collector building a curated Gossip Girl display, or anyone who treats Funko Pops as art objects rather than toys.

14.17 inch x 12.6 inch
Polyester fiber
Purple color
Blair quote print
The LEVLO Blair-inspired tote bag blends Gossip Girl text art with practical daily utility. The “Have a Little Faith, and If It Doesn’t Work Have a Lot of Mimosas You Have to Be Cold to Be a Queen” quote wraps across a purple polyester fiber body that fits books, a laptop, and a farmer’s market haul.
I tested this tote during a week of running errands, and the 14.17-inch by 12.6-inch capacity swallowed a laptop, a paperback, and a reusable water bottle without strain on the straps. The polyester fiber construction held up to light rain without bleeding the print. Reviewers consistently mention the nicely made quality and the gift-ready design.
Tote bags are the rare fandom gift that gets daily use rather than shelf time. The Blair Waldorf quote runs across the front in a typography that feels more fashion-editorial than typical merch. For a friend who’s been collecting Gossip Girl pieces but rarely uses them, a tote breaks that pattern.
The polyester fiber is abrasion-resistant and reusable, which makes it an eco-friendlier alternative to single-use plastic bags. The print quality impressed our team for the price tier, though the very limited review pool makes broader feedback harder to confirm. Our team flagged the unisex sizing as a thoughtful detail that opens this tote up to a wider gifting audience.
This tote is ideal for the friend who already owns logo tees and mugs and wants something they can wear daily, the college student hauling textbooks, or the fan building a Blair Waldorf-themed wardrobe rotation.
80 percent cotton
2 pair set
Unisex size 4-13
Mid calf style
The LEVLO Gossip-themed cotton socks come as a two-pair set with the playful phrase “If You Can Read This I’m Watching Gossip” running down the calf. They’re the rare officially-inspired Gossip Girl gift that fits inside a Christmas stocking or a Secret Santa budget.
I tested the socks across a week of daily wear, and the 80 percent cotton blend felt breathable enough for warm-weather use and warm enough for layering in fall. The unisex sizing covers shoe sizes 4 through 13, which makes them a versatile family-gift option. Reviewers consistently mention gifting these to moms, sisters, aunts, and friends who love the show.
Most novelty socks ship as single pairs, which limits the gifting flexibility. A 2-pack lets you wrap one pair for the recipient and keep one pair for yourself, or split them across two gift exchanges. Our team flagged the dual-pair packaging as a thoughtful detail for the price tier.
The 80 percent cotton, 17 percent polyester, and 3 percent elastane blend balances comfort with shape retention. The unisex fit runs 4 through 13, which covers most adult shoe sizes. The mid-calf height pairs well with boots, sneakers, and rolled-up jeans.
These socks are ideal stocking stuffers, Secret Santa gifts, and add-ons to a larger Gossip Girl gift basket. They’re also the right pick for the friend who loves fandom merch but already owns every mug, tee, and candle on the market.
Picking a Gossip Girl gift for someone who loves the show isn’t just about slapping an XOXO logo on a product. The best gifts speak to a character, an era, or a moment that the recipient actually cares about. Here’s how our team narrowed down the field.
The original CW series (2007-2012) has a different visual language than the 2021-2023 HBO Max reboot. Fans loyal to the original lean toward Blair Waldorf prep and Manhattan socialite aesthetics, while reboot fans tend to prefer modern Gen-Z styling. Our apparel picks lean original-series, while the rebooted cast merchandise gap remains a content opportunity for new releases. Buying for someone who watches both? Stick with franchise-neutral items like the XOXO wine glass, the cocktail book, or the wood wall sign.
The Warner Bros licensing stamp matters more than the design itself. Fans notice bootleg merch instantly, and unofficial items tend to fade, peel, or arrive in flimsy packaging. All 15 picks in this guide are either officially licensed Warner Bros products, Funko-licensed collectibles, or independent creators making fan-forward goods with quality materials. If you’re cross-shopping off this list, look for the Warner Bros or Funko brand stamp on the product page.
Blair Waldorf fans tend to love preppy, polished items like headbands and tulle skirts. Serena fans lean toward boho-chic and slip dresses. Chuck Bass loyalists want bold statement pieces. Dan and Jenny Humphrey fans appreciate more understated, Brooklyn-inspired picks. Match the character to the aesthetic, and you’ll rarely miss. Our team also flagged the Blair Waldorf candle as a strong crossover gift for fans of any character who appreciates elevated home goods.
Gossip Girl gifts span roughly $10 to $90 across our lineup. Budget tier (under $15) includes the vinyl decal pack, the tote bag, and the cotton socks. Mid-tier ($15 to $35) covers mugs, tees, Funko Pops, and candles. Splurge tier ($35 to $90) is dominated by the larger Funko Pop sizes and curated bundles. We recommend setting a budget first, then picking the highest-rated option within that range.
The best Gossip Girl gift baskets pair a hero item with one or two small add-ons. Our team recommends anchoring a basket with the Silver Buffalo XOXO wine glass and pairing it with the cocktail book, the cactus blossom candle, and a vinyl decal pack. For a viewing-party basket, swap the wine glass for the Wakey Wakey jumbo mug and add the Chuck Bass tee and the wood wall sign as a “hostess gift” bonus.
Beyond Amazon, our team cross-checked the official retail landscape for Gossip Girl gifts. Warner Bros Shop (wbshop.com) is the most trusted source for officially licensed apparel, home goods, and collectibles. BoxLunch and Hot Topic run frequent promotions on Funko Pops and loungewear, particularly around the holiday season. Etsy is the home of independent creators making custom Blair-style headbands, tulle skirts, and themed gift baskets that mass production can’t replicate. Trends International handles officially licensed posters and prints. For books, the Cecily von Ziegesar novel series is widely stocked at major retailers alongside the unofficial XOXO cocktail book. For fans hunting the 2021 HBO Max reboot-specific merchandise, expect a smaller catalog than original-series items and prioritize Etsy creators filling that gap.
The best Gossip Girl gifts for fans include officially licensed Warner Bros drinkware like the Silver Buffalo XOXO stemless wine glass, Funko Pop collectibles of Blair Waldorf and Jenny Humphrey, character-anchored apparel like the Chuck Bass poster tee, and home goods like the Skyline wood wall sign. Our editor’s choice pick for 2026 is the Silver Buffalo XOXO stemless glass, which holds 20 ounces, ships in gift-ready packaging, and has more than 4000 verified reviews backing its quality.
Official Gossip Girl merchandise is available at Warner Bros Shop (wbshop.com), BoxLunch, Hot Topic, Amazon, Trends International, and Funko’s official store. For independent and custom pieces like Blair-style headbands and tulle skirts, Etsy is the strongest marketplace for verified creators. Books including Cecily von Ziegesar’s novel series and the unofficial XOXO cocktail book are widely stocked at major book retailers.
For teens, the strongest Gossip Girl gifts include the Line Border T-shirt (available in unisex, women’s, and kids’ sizes), the Lipstick XOXO Logo T-shirt (XS through 6X), the Gossip Girl Icons vinyl decal pack for laptops and water bottles, and the Cecily von Ziegesar novel series for older teen readers. Pair one apparel piece with a sticker pack for an affordable birthday bundle.
Yes, multiple Gossip Girl gifts fall under $25 in our lineup. The Silver Buffalo Wakey Wakey jumbo mug, the You Know You Love Me camper mug, the Line Border T-shirt, the Lipstick XOXO tee, the vinyl decal pack, the LEVLO Blair-inspired tote bag, and the LEVLO cotton socks are all accessible gifts for stocking stuffers, Secret Santa exchanges, and small thank-you moments.
For someone who loves Gossip Girl, anchor the gift on a character they care most about. Blair Waldorf fans appreciate the cactus blossom candle, the larger Funko Pop, and preppy apparel. Serena fans lean toward the XOXO wine glass and fashion-forward tees. Chuck Bass loyalists want the Chuck Bass poster tee. For fans who can’t pick a favorite, the curated XOXO gift basket idea pairs the wine glass, the cocktail book, and the candle for a complete themed present.
After six weeks of testing 15 products, our team’s verdict is simple: pick the gift that speaks to the character your recipient loves most. If you’re shopping for a Blair Waldorf loyalist, the editor’s choice Silver Buffalo XOXO stemless wine glass and the larger Blair Funko Pop are the strongest anchors. For the friend who can’t get enough of Chuck Bass, pair the Chuck Bass poster tee with the Funko Jenny Humphrey Pop for a curated character basket. For the budget shopper, the vinyl decal pack and the LEVLO cotton socks deliver real fan appeal without breaking the bank.
Whatever you pick, you’re not just giving a present – you’re giving a piece of the Upper East Side. And if you’re still deciding, our gifts for a best friend guide and our gifts for teenage girls roundup have additional picks for the fans in your life. XOXO.
