Do i know what to get my wife for christmas ..No !! . she`s been on about a new phone - but does not want one. likes new perfume ..but has lots.. has more jackets , scarves , gloves , boots , shoes than the whole marcos family together. I am so stuck ..somebody please Help.
PS she has all the latest music so theres a no go ?

I need ideas any ??? Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeeeeee Help !!
 
Two tickets for her and her best friend to have a 5 day sunny break in January whilst you take a week off and babysit.

Well, you asked ;)
 
Flops thats brilliant ...i will run it past her now ?
 
Mucks seems like you are on awinner m8.. she has her engagement,wedding, eternity rings ..necklace,watch,bracelet though.. eeeeeeeeerrrrrm

Flops how about diamond encrusted handcuffs..know anywhere ??but for a £30 budget ?
 
How about something unusual like an experience?
 
With me Ian she has more than enough experience !!Sorry do you mean parachuting with a feeding bottle at my 1 year olds mealtimes from 20,000 ft or driving 300miles in a ferrari to get nappies when the local store closes in 1 hour ??
 
A transit van> car boot sale> sell what she has accumulated> and start buying the presents again!!! but buy them slowly that way she can wear them out hence, no problem during the next 50years:D
 
Here's a girl's perspective on a nice Christmas present.

Avoid:

Any cooking/kitchen/cleaning/household items!!!

What I would think of as a nice pressie:

Books, CDs, nice jewellery, nice underwear, voucher for beauty salon, money for the sales, make up (never can have enough!!). Mac do some lovely and unusual make-up sets - available in most Debenhams, Harvey Nix etc...., nice make-up brushes (ditto Mac), day spa voucher, week-end away, tickets for a show/concert+meal, candles.

Women can never have enough clothes, underwear etc.... Handbags are a nice pressie as well - never can have enough of them especially at Christmas.

If you need any more help/suggestions, let us/me know.

Good luck with your quest!!

Money for the sales and handbag seem a good avenue. saucy underwear seems even better .
Thanks from a womans perspective..still slightly bemused though as what to get ?
 
Ok now.. heres the deal..
Womans size 12 ..winters supposed to be the worst in decades... her parents house christmas day .. show off her prezzies to ma and pa..

i need links to latest fashion clothes from maybe Next ..jumper , trousers etc.

i feel we r getting warmer ?
 
No no Rush NOT saucy underwear. Go to Next and look at their new luxury range or ditto M and S - there's some lovely stuff around. Size 12 - the world's your lobster mate!! U should have no problems there. Let me share a great site with you ASOS (short for as seen on screen) some really lovely, unusual and reasonably prices stuff and ordered on line. It's based on fashion and accessories seen on stars/screen. Some real bargains and stuff you won't see on everyone else's wife/partner!!

On the fashion front - little strappy tops with a little ballet cardi/bolero tops are nice and go as well with jeans as a posh skirt/trousers. Handbags and fashion jewellery - some lovely stuff at Next.

Perfume - Chanel Chance is really lovely and won't give you a headache!!!!

Good luck!!

Haha, saucy underwear, Gabs is right. I've seen women look me right in the eye after opening a present of that stuff and say 'But really, that's a present for you isn't it?' What they want is the fashionable, expensive, nice stuff.

Get that and their eyes will light up and you'll realise you don't need the saucy underwear ;)

My daughter has been buying some stuff from Asos recently, jeans, jacket and some tops, they give a good service and have fair prices. Next day delivery, usually.
 
On lingerie... Naughty but NICE is always a good bet.
Stay away from Flannel & toweling if ur buying nightwear & I'm assuming U know not to buy granny bloomers or alternatively underwear with extra openings ;). But a nice teddy or some french knickers & something lacy... something special that makes her FEEL attractive & lets her know that you still see her as attractive, like Flops said, her eyes will light up & her face will glow.

For the saucy stuff...? As Gabs & Flops said, it really is a pressie for you not her, maybe next time she asks you what you want for your B'day/Xmas pressie tell her you'd love for her to buy herself some 'naughty lingerie' I've heard that request more than once myself & always enjoy carrying it out. But that will alway depend on her personality of course.

I still reckon the fluffy handcuffs are a good idea though ;)
