The Best Gifts for Your Leo Bestie
When you first met your best friend, there's a huge chance you figured out they were a Leo before they even had the chance to let you know (not that they would've waited very long to do so, anyway).
The zodiac's sun-ruled lions are anything but subtle, shining in a way that—much like the sun itself—immediately lights up every room they enter. If there's one thing you know about your Leo bestie, it's that they love being the star of any celebration.
While this is part of why you love them, it does also make shopping for them a bit more difficult than quite possibly any other sign. Worry not, though, as loyal Leos are sure to love anything you gift them so long as they can tell you put some thought into it. Of course, you could also guarantee that your gift makes a great impression on these typically tough-to-impress kings and queens of the zodiac by getting them something from our Leo-curated list of the best gifts for your Leo bestie. Get your notes app (or your wallet) ready and start shopping.
These Mugs That Would Make Even Barbie Herself Jealous: $35
Is there anything that gives off main character energy more than the original main-character-of-her-entire-multiversal-franchise herself? We think not. Combine that vibe with the bright-as-can-be pink color and the timeliness of the fact that the new Barbie film just released (right in time for the start of Leo season, no less) and you've got a gift that's sure to leave your bestie in a rare zone of speechlessness.
