4 Perfect Eternal Gifts for Women You Can’t Go Wrong With
Finding a suitable gift for a woman often seems like an impossible task. Usually, when it comes to special occasions (birthdays, anniversaries and Valentine’s), man find themselves lost and questioning every idea they have.
Is it special enough? Will she think I’m cheap if I get her only a card? Should it be more expensive? Will this show I care? All of these questions can be overwhelming and makes you shift focus from what’s really important — enjoying the time spent together.
All women are different, but there are a few classics that work for all women. If you want a simple and correct choice, listed below are some great ideas.
Jewelry
It can’t be emphasized enough just how important her personal style is. Jewelry is a long-lasting and the most memorable present, but first things first, is she a gold, silver or platinum kind of girl? Notice the accessories she wears and start from there. The second thing to consider is the type of jewelry she prefers wearing.
Don’t make the mistake of buying her a pair of earrings if she doesn’t have her ears pierced. Necklaces and braces are the safest choices. Additionally, if your relationship is truly meaningful, you can mix and match different styles, for example, a pendant in a shape of a rose as a symbol of undying love or even a flower dipped in gold to symbolize unwithering love.
As for rings, the size matters. It’s more likely you will end up with the wrong one, so use the help of a female friend for this issue.
Lingerie
Buying lingerie for a woman can be daunting. So many items, with the sales person trying to tempt you into buying more, things can be a bit scary if you are a nervous type. Also, you may end up selecting the wrong item. However, if you already know what she likes, getting the look and feel of the garment only brings you closer to the right choice.
Another option is shopping online. You don’t need to go to the retail shops and endure the endless torture of people nervously walking around and staring. One click and you are set. The only thing to remember is to look at their return policy.
Make sure the store has an acceptable return policy, just in case it doesn’t fit properly. Color-wise, red, white and black are perfect for any occasion. Unless you know her favorite color, you can’t go wrong with these classics.
Perfumes
Choosing a fragrance is a little bit tricky. You want it to smell amazing, but the reality is the chances are against you. A good fragrance is hard to buy because a lot depends on the type of person and their scent preferences. It could end up as a waste of money and cause unnecessary tension.
On the other hand, picking the correct fragrance can be the most thoughtful gift possible. The basic things to consider when selecting are their taste, personality, smell, even their favorite movies. All of this can help in finding the perfect perfume.
If you get dizzy from all the different fragrances in the department stores or you are just unsure, think about her idols and pick something from that collection. Otherwise, take a sneak peek into her bathroom cabinet. The answer to this question may be lying in there.
Flowers
Buying flowers for that special someone is always a great feeling, and although it may seem easy, it’s really not. There are so many different colors and arrangements, it’s hard to know where to begin. Either way, the gesture will be appreciated. Again, consider her personality — what is her favorite color and what’s the occasion?
Roses are famous for their classic, yet passionate look. Nothing says “I love you” better than a bouquet of red roses, but they can also be a bit cliche. For a more sophisticated choice, consider the beauty of tulips. In fact, they are excellent for mixing with other flowers, which add a dose of originality to the bouquet.
Anyway, if your message is simpler and leans more toward appreciation and gratitude, then pink roses or a fresh bouquet of daisies and freesia is a gift to remember. Please remember — carnations may be tempting, but it’s a gift more suitable for your mother.
To sum thing up, only a card is never a good idea, but a thoughtful addition to the real present. Also, shopping together from time to time can make it easier for you to find the perfect gift later on. If you’re not the type who can withstand hours of browsing or you can’t afford more expensive items, a good bottle of wine and a chocolate can provide the perfect solution.
