Clothes

If you want to go down the road of getting her some clothes it may be best to be direct and ask her what she would really like.

​As you know teenagers have very set ideas of the attire they would like to wear and it probably changes quite frequently. Taking a 15 year old girl on a shopping trip so she can choose exactly what she likes is always a good idea. A new coat or an expensive pair of jeans may go down well. 

If this isn't an option consider getting her a voucher to her favorite store so she can buy what she would like.

Ways To Give Money or Vouchers

As 15 year old girls can be difficult to buy especially if they are very specific in their likes and dislikes it can be the best idea to give money or vouchers. However, this can be perceived as boring. But there are ways you can give money that will make the gift seem a bit more interesting.
Ideas include:  
Buying a cute wallet or purse and putting the money inside there
Giving the voucher or money with a small accessory which could be relevant to the voucher. So, if you are giving them a Starbucks voucher you could give it in a cup with a sachet of hot chocolate. 
You can hide the voucher in a tub of candy or something similar. 
Some stores such as amazon allow you to personalize the actual gift voucher with a photo. 

Money Maze

A really fun way to give money is in a money maze like the one featured. 

They recipient of the gift has to solve the maze before they can have access to the gift.

The slot is for coins, folded bills, small toys, keychains, souvenirs, and other small gifts. 

It's a great idea as a last minute gift or as a present for a teenager when you are unsure what to get them. 

After they figure out how to get the money or small gift inside, this gift box can also be a money saver bank.
