Does she have a hobby? Buy her something for that.

Like, for me, I'd enjoy a jumbo-sized pack of Fat Quarters (it's a bunch of quilt fabric). Practical, but not TOO practical, just fun.

Please don't get her a smack in the face for christmas. Get her something she enjoys.

Hence, my suggestion of corsets. What sexy woman wouldn't want a real corset for christmas? :D

I'm not sure.... we'd need some photos to make sure.

Okay, how about this....

I actually lack fashion sense too, so honestly, I would love someone to dress me...please!!!!!! So, why not get your wife a nice outfit? You have better fashion sense, you know her size(if not look into her clothes), and you know her taste. But, get something she can wear often and not too expensive. If she's miserly on herself, she won't wear anything ridiculously expensive. AND take her out to pamper her. She deserves it. Perhaps a nice movie and dinner. Take her dancing. Take her to the amusement park. Make a picnic basket and have a picnic in the park. Take her to play go cart. Take her on a cruise. Go on a trip. Rent a beach house for the weekend. Just take her somewhere she will get a chance to relax and enjoy herself. You get the picture. Often times, it doesn't take much to make a woman happy. Just show her you care and love her. :D

But Tulip, then she'll expect him to be considerate every year. ;)

Tulip 12-01-2008 01:02 AM

Yes, at least once or perhaps twice a year? Let's add the birthday! :D

xoxoxoBruce 12-01-2008 01:06 AM

See! It's getting out of hand already. :eek:

Here's a suggestion any woman in their right mind would LOVE. Decorate the house like a Temple, with lots of sheer, flowy fabric, candles, incense. Make it very exotic and romantic. Draw a HOT bath for her, with lavender oil and epsom salts. Have some exotic music playing, like Indian music, or Middle Eastern, (perhaps VAS) something like that, relaxing, but spiritual. (or use Pink Floyd if you like. the point is to create a mood.) After her bath, blindfold her and lead her to bed full of flower petals. Feed her some strawberries dipped in dark chocolate with champagne, wine or whatever she likes to drink on special occassions. Have a few of her girlfriends come in and dress her in different outfits that express her beauty, both inside and out. (they should also be dressed appropriately for this task.) After she is dressed in something she adores, have all the ladies sprawl out on the bed with her, and have some of your/her male friends come in, dressed like slaves, and have them take care of the ladies, washing and massaging their feet with lavender oil, and working their way up. have the manslaves feed the women, strawberries, grapes, cheese, wine, bread. The point is, make it a Goddess worshipping ceremony. Show her how special she is. Make her feel special, and this way you can get her into other clothes and make her feel sexy and special about it, not awkward. As far as the ceremony goes, I don't know you, so I would take it only as far as you want as long as everyone feels safe. Sex, or no sex. The sex isn't the point. The sensuality is the point. And sensuality really has nothing to do with sex. It's more about feeling powerful, and special and unique. Make her feel like the Goddess she IS. (You can do this without all the other people, I just think that would make it more fun and playful.

I am suggesting to her that she internet shops.

:3_eyes:

I resemble that I'm afraid... with lingering maternity clothing that is literally falling of my hips ample as they are... personally I'd LOVE a new outfit... or wardrobe... but have no time without kids to try things on and am equally frustrated with the overwhelming amout of clothing made to flatter the flat chested and slim hipped... am not plus size... just very petite and curvy... with a very short waist... lowrise leaves half my arse hanging out and baby doll shirts... the seem that should be under the clevage hts right at my nipples. Needless to say no one dares buy me clothing. Though it would be nice... they'd have their work cut out for them. I generally stick to broomstick skirts or goucho pants, lounging pants and t-shirts... with a hoodie... am very tired of them all... just want a nice comfortable stylish outfit that doesn't make me look pregnant, obese or like a an old frumpy lady.

Am very interested to know how this turns out....

I once tried to buy clothing for a girl. Not my best idea ever. I thought a few sweaters in her size would be safe, right? Nope. They were the wrong color/size/style/whatever. Never again.

I am also guilty of buying a vacuum cleaner for Xmas. BEFORE I was told not to buy such things. But she asked for one! Still, should have made that an aside present on an ordinary day.

Live and learn, but I still dread shopping for gifts. I'm not good at it.

Wow. I'm even less of a chick than I thought I was. I'm really tempted to put up a poll to find out how many women here would want anything even remotely like that.
