For that reason, go for one of these thoughtful Father's Day gifts that are great for any daughter to give.

With a father-daughter bond as unique as yours, you'll want to find something that best sums up your relationship: maybe it's a personalized keepsake that represents how far you've come, a funny find for your partner in puns or something cute that'll make your #GirlDad weep happy tears. While you can always rely on classic gift ideas— think: patterned socks, beer glasses and kitchen gadgets — these Father's Day gifts from daughters prove there are a number of ways to express your love and appreciation on your dad's special day, no matter your budget or timeframe. And if you need even more help to nail down exactly what to get your dad who claims he has everything (and doesn't want anything), take a look at these dad-approved present ideas because you can never have too many options, right?
