Gifts for the Special Lady on Your List
How to Find the Perfect Present for Women
Finding the perfect gift isn't rocket science but it can take a little innovative thought to find the perfect gift to fit the woman on your list. Whether you are shopping for your girlfriend, wife, mom, daughter, sister, or a friend these shopping tips are for you.
The one basic tip which will most help you to select an appropriate present is referred to as individualization. It is the process of selecting a gift by looking at the defining characteristics of the person you are shopping for. It may sound like a difficult way to choose a present for someone but it really is easy and accurate. You simply look at the interests, hobbies, and lifestyle of the person who you are shopping for and then you select a gift item which will fit into one of these areas. Everyone has their preferences in food, enjoyments, hobbies, and entertainment so you just have to discover hers. It will help you narrow down a list of gift ideas specifically suited for her. Take a Look at Her Interests and Hobbies

Begin by looking at the most easily recognized characteristics of the person you are shopping for. You generally know what she does to earn a living as well as a few of her hobbies and interests. Take a close look at her style of dress as it may give you a few tips into her fashion interests.
Then take a closer look at her lifestyle as it may also help you to select. Does she have pets? Does she enjoy going to local community events, theater, or craft fairs? These little items are important tips to finding the perfect present for her personality. The selection of a gift often goes wrong because the person purchasing the gift will choose an item which they like rather than one actually themed for the person they are shopping for. Stay focused on the interests, talents, and hobbies of the person you are shopping for as these are the traits which will help you to select the perfect present for her. Remember to stay on track. If you are not sure where to begin then if the opportunity presents itself take a peek around her place. You can generally get quite a few great gift ideas this way. I'm not talking snooping I'm just saying that you can find out quite a bit about a person by seeing the items they gather around them. A Gift With a Healthy Twist
Fragrance or Cosmetics for Her? Just Choose With Care.  A good perfume is alike a good hair style.
Fragrance is a powerful way to send out silent signals to the rest of the world letting them know exactly who you are and what you are feeling at any given time time of life.
This is why the fragrances that we choose to wear are quite a personal choice and will vary to include a number of different scents depending on the season or even the time of day. By selecting scents that match our personality and lifestyle we send out a message to those we meet throughout our day. Although most people may not be aware of why they have a number of favorite fragrances, it is often lifestyle change that dictates how each person will select their fragrance at any given time. The subtle changes that cause you to feel differently about the scents that you wear are choices that are made perhaps at a subconscious level, yet each choice is specifically designed to offer up to the world an image of who you are and what you are feeling at any given moment in time. Theme her Gift to Her Hobbies and Interests
You know the person on your list best so take a few minutes to stop and think about her hobbies and interests. Is she a person who enjoys sports or other physical fitness activities and if so then use items in this theme for her gift. There are many areas of interest to consider when selecting a suitable gift for someone.
There are Quite a Few Unique Ways to Gift Beauty Products 
The fragrances and cosmetics that we wear are designed to accent our distinct personality and lifestyle. They are a very personal choice.
The beauty products chosen for summer may be different from the ones that are selected to to be worn in winter, fall, and spring. They even change depending on the time of day and function that is being attended. In spring our chosen perfume may be a lively citrus scent which is a more exciting outgoing fragrance that is meant to display our increased anticipation toward the arrival of summer. We may also elect to wear bolder scents over the summer months as it is a time when we tend to be more active. This in comparison to the winter months when a person may select a milder lighter fragrance to suit a more sedentary cold weather mood. Stay Out of the Dog House
A caftan will generally fit more generously than other fashions making it easier to judge her size Take Extra Care Finding a Fashion Gift for Her 
Purchasing clothing for a woman can be a touchy area. If you get her size or style wrong then there can be hurt feelings. This is one gift area where things can go wrong quite quickly.
I generally recommend that you stick with fashionable accessories such as jewelry, scarves, watch, or other add ons rather than going for a skirt, slacks, or nightie or dress. Judge well if you decide to select a gift of clothing and always include the receipt so she can exchange it if you do get the wrong size, color, or style. A gift card so she can choose her own clothing is also a great alternative. Just specify on the card that it is so she can choose an outfit. She generally won't mind the free shopping trip. Cash is also an acceptable gift if you do it right. Style it up by gifting it in a wallet, piggy bank, jewelry box, or other creative way. One lady I know was gifted a $1000. bill. She loved it. |
