Victoria Secret sells gift boxes with mini bottles of their best lotions and that is usually appreciated. Also anything from Godiva is good. Get a mixed box of seasonal truffles.
Something else I love is a gift certificate for a complete car detailing, where they vacuum the car and do the works.
Massage at a spa is a winner too, a good place charges on average $1 a minute. All spas have gift certificates, if you don't want to plunk down $60 for an hour massage then get her a pedicure certificate that runs $30 to $40.
I hope this helps.

This may be the most disappointing question in Women's Studies ever! Didn't you learn anything in the Women's Studies classes you sat in on to pick up chicks?

Women's studies is an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to topics concerning women, feminism, gender, and politics. It often includes feminist theory, women's history (eg history of women's suffrage) and social history, women's literature, women's health, and the feminist and gender studies-influenced practice of most of the humanities and social sciences.


"Women's studies" was first conceived as an academic rubric apart from other departments in the late 1960s, as the second wave of feminism gained political influence in the academy through student and faculty activism. As an academic discipline, it was modeled on the American studies and ethnic studies (such as Afro-American studies) and Chicano Studies programs that had arisen shortly before it. The first Women's Studies Program in the United States was established on May 21, 1970 at San Diego State College after a year of intense organizing (women's consciousness raising groups, rallies, petition circulating, and operating unofficial or experimental classes and presentations before seven committees and assemblies). Carol Rowell Council was the student co-founder along with Dr. Joyce Nower, a literature instructor. In the 1970s many universities and colleges created departments and programs in women's studies, and professorships became available in the field which did not require the sponsorship of other departments.

Duh!

If you want this to be a relationship...write her a letter....nothin special but anything from your heart will ours melt! In it...ask her to dinner or hint about taking her and her friends somewhere...or a day for them at the spa...nothing is more important to a girl than her friends! If it's only a holiday present...talk to her to find out what her interests are...and find something around that...but once again...the spa thing would work either way!!

I have truly always loved little thoughtful gifts. If you know of a book she loves or wants---even a first edition you find online of her favorite one. If she writes letters, buy her notecards that reflect her personality and buy stamps to go with them. A gift certificate for a manicure or pedicure is always a great thing to do for a friend--even a massage. Find out if she collects anything and find one. Buy an indulgent box of Godiva chocolates. Most women just want you to think about it and make it personal--that's it.

i think of surely what you're asserting is that girls human beings already had rights before Islam - so what sturdy did it do for women human beings's rights as quickly because it arrived? somebody already spoke back each of your questions component with the aid of component yet i visit tell you this: before Islam, there have been MANY MANY woman infantacides. no person cared for a daughter because she does no longer be waiting to make a contribution something to the family she replace into born in. as quickly as Islam got here, infantacides have been forbidden. The Prophet (observed) pronounced many cases that having a daughter interior the family is almost a blessing. It helped out with women human beings's positions plenty. We even have been given the main appropriate to inherit sources, some thing which we did no longer have before. We had hadiths praising us - which includes, "The gates to heaven lie on the ft of your mom", etc. in case you genuinely should understand how plenty Islam has contributed to womens' rights, I recommend you purchase a e book from Amazon, there are a number of people who understand extra approximately this than I do. attempt "Daughters of yet another direction: reports of yank women human beings choosing Islam " or "The Scimitar and the Veil: stunning women human beings of Islam" the two written with the aid of a woman non-Muslims.

If you know she loves a particular author a book is great, if she LOVES an artist or group one of their CD's, if she has a movie that she adores, the DVD is a good way to go. The trick here is to make sure you buy something that she LIKES not something that YOU like. Women love to know that you man pay attention to us when we speak so for example, if she's mentioned reading a particular book and you go and buy it she'll be BLOWN AWAY and think you are the BEST MAN EVER!!!!

You need to be thoughtful about it, like think about things she likes to do. Maybe she likes scrapbooking? Then buy her some scrapbooking supplies.
Heres an example I did:
For this boy I liked I bought him some duck tape. It may sound strange, but he was a punk and he always seemed to be in need of ducktape to keep his belt together, so for christmas I gave him a huge roll of it. lol.

So just take what she likes and think of what she might need.

jewelry and money are the worst gifts. get her something that would remind her of something fun you did together. or get her a cd of her favorite music. it would be creative if you compiled a cd yourself. or mp3s if that's how she listens.
oh...spa....yeah...that's the best.
