Buying gifts for women

Published: Monday | November 30, 2009


Even with millions of products in the market solely for women - shoes, bags, makeup, wallets, watches, jewellery, etc. - men still find it hard to buy presents for them. This is even more difficult at Christmas.

However, it is actually very easy to give gifts to women. You just have to know what makes them tick, what makes them sigh and, ultimately, what makes them happy. Below are some tips that you and any man can use to choose gifts for the women in your life.

Look at the past

One of the things that you should do first before buying a presents for the women in your life is to look at the past and think of the gifts that you have already bought. Women do not like receiving the same gift twice in a row, except of course, they were really expensive items such as pearls, other jewellery or a car.

These they will appreciate! Unless you plan to spend a fortune on gifts for this holiday season, make sure that your gift idea do not repeat.

Consider their likes

Women value the thought more than the gift. So, if you are buying them gifts, make sure that you have considered every aspect of the item, from the design to the colour because, for sure, they will notice that. Your gifts may be ultra-expensive but not in their favourite colour or design, or will not go well with their outfits, just may be sentenced to a life in the corner closet.

Use the memories

When buying gifts for a woman, wrack your brain for something that has special meaning to her. Women are easier to please in that sense. A gift does not have to be expensive or even useful; it's just has to tug at her heart.

For instance, if you had your first dinner date in a restaurant and you have managed to keep the paper napkin or the souvenir box of matches, you can have those framed and given as a gift.

Presentation

One of the most important things in giving gifts to women is presentation. It is not enough that you give them the item, you have to give it in style, in the sweetest, most romantic way. In fact, oftentimes, it is not the gift that even counts but the manner of giving it.
