Ask her what she needs.
Candles
Throw Rug or Blanket
Plant
A fun book she can place on the coffee table
why not try a 6 month or 1 yr subscription to the local newspaper?

a gift certificate to Home Depot or Lowes or similar

a really nice dried flower arrangement in a classy vase

a real sharp low energy chrome or brass lamp that she can use in a few different places
Towels for the bathroom, a welcome mat for the front door, a plant, a framed picture of all of you together, dish towels and accessories for the kitchen or go with something she loves to decorate with. For example I love dragonflys and my mom got me this really cool wind chime to hang. I just bought my first house and moved about a month ago. I also got a really cool looking plant, a shadow box and a statue for my garden. Of course if she doesn't have a garden or a place to put something like that it wouldn't work. Good Luck Shopping!
I would fix a basket with towels, wash clothes, scented soaps and candles for their bathroom.

you could do a little meal basket with specialized ingredients or a new cookbooks with a pretty bowl and a new mixing spoon.

you could do a basket of cleaning supplies.
something electronic.toaster, coffee maker etcc
Assuming this isn't her first apartment, she probably already has the basics of a home. Try something consumable, such as a gift certificate to a grocery store (buying food when you move is very expensive, so any little bit will help!) or perhaps a laundry hamper filled with stuff like laundry detergent, toilet tissue, dish detergent, cleaning products, and that sort of thing.
Depending on what he/she needs. Kitchen appliance is good like coffee maker with coffee bean grinder, an iPod cradle/speakers, mini dvd player or any hightech kitchen gadgets.
Good luck!

Plants!

You can't go wrong giving plants!

Or get your friend a huge, gorgeous plant!
