On behalf of all women out there I am writing a few words about what to buy a woman as a gift and of course, what not to buy!
My worst ever first Christmas present from a new boyfriend was a black umbrella and a pair of socks. DO NOT repeat this pattern! These gifts represent a lack of imagination and have no 'sex' appeal.
Presents for women need to be sexy.
This does not mean that you go out and buy her a black crotchless thong either! That is another no no!
Predictable gifts
Flowers and choccies. NOW these are perfect in-between events gifts. In other words DO NOT buy at birthdays and Christmas unless they merely accompany something more exciting. But YOU MUST buy them randomly throughout the year and always on anniversaries. The anniversary of the day you got married, bought the dog, conceived the kids, bought the house, built the pond, met her mother...you get the picture.
Thoughtful gifts.
What has your woman being talking about recently or for the past few months leading up to her birthday? If it happens to be something that can be 'sexy' like a Designer handbag/shoes/nightwear, go for it. If it happens to be a bread maker do not buy this as a gift, but buy it anyway.
Ok, quick summary
Nothing too unsexy
Nothing overtly sexy
No chocs and flowers unless accompanying other more fabulous gift
Flowers and chocs rest of year for non-events
Buy what your woman has said she wants - only if it's sexy
Buy her what she wants anyway but not as a gift.

Easy when you know how.
