Hello fellow 6gc'ers!
I've been a bad boyfriend for I did not get my girlfriend a gift, yet. I'm so clueless right now. What should I get my girlfriend for xmas, I know it's a little late...so, any ideas on what to get a girl as a last minute type of deal gift? I was thinking about going to disneyland and getting her a season pass or something but good lord! those thing are like 250 with black out dates.. any suggestion would be appreciated. about my girlfriend: she's a girly girl and she has no interest in cars just a typical girly girl..

I always got my ex jewelry, women love jewelry. One year it was a past present future necklace w/an emerald that I picked out for the center & diamonds before and after. Another year was a tennis bracelet with some emeralds and diamonds, then a Tiffany's ring with an emerald (yes she loved emeralds and they all matched). I got her a coach bag once you can do that, women love bags. Bags and diamonds.

Hey, I got my gf season passes to disneyland. 300 bucks But if you're really stumped... you can't go wrong with tiffanys or a gift certificate to south coast plaza or something. |

I really like that coach bag idea.. but I'm no good with bags so I can't really go out a pick a "pretty" one.
Jewelry sounds really good also. right after work I'm going to tiffany's. Would a bracelet be nice? thanks for the help guys.. sucks trying to get last minute gifts especially for your girl -------------------- [color=#FF0000] I MISS MY RED BABY =(

If you want you can email my girlfriend and ask her, she's a girly girl and she loves bags, tiffanys and all that stuff.. she'll tell you what's hot.
Edit: Forgot to mention... tiffanys around this time of year is hell... just warning you. This post has been edited by Chanh55: Dec 21, 2005 - 12:58 PM |

telling you wat she wants would just gives you lesser opportunities to surprise her.

DIAMONDS ARE A GIRLS BEST FRIEND!!!!! mmmmmhmm i love something shiny and idk about the whole bag thing. I get attached to one bag, and then i buy it in a few colors and thats it. I would say my weakness is shoes. Esp shoes with rhinestones... ahh shiny things plus shoes!? ::dances around::  I would say get her jewelry and take her out to dinner, women love to be taken out becuase we get to dress up.

I made my gf a little coupon binder with homemade ideas to use as coupons.
Ex: one free night at the movie, or one meal from any local dinner. Just use your own ideas, my gf loved it lol

Just adding some more imput, something that has some thought to it is always nice. I saw this ring a few years ago and i def hinted to my b/f at the time its something pretty
 you put her birthstone and yours in, I assume if you go to a jewelry store they could do it there? idk. i found it on zales and i know they have stores around. I HATE last min. shopping!!! grrr  the one in the picture is w/o the names, you can add your names near the birthstone. Just ideas? idk, now im just shopping for me

I bought my gf this ring for our 1 year. Took her to tiffanys and told her to pick something on this side of the room (cheaper side).
 I hate beating around the bush... I just tell her to pick what you want... It's better than buying her something and her pretending to like it.

(lucky guy that gets to date me) haha! My wife is the same way. I bought her a pair of platinum/diamond earrings once and she still wears them after five years because they don't make her ears itch. I think I paid less than a $100 for the pair after negotiating. Earrings are by far the least expensive jewelry to buy. |

whatever gift you decide to get her, get this too: buy some flowers and a DVD of the very first movie you guys saw in the theater. Then you guys can have a romantic night IN, and its cheap. the sentimental value is priceless though

I bought my gf a mood ring and when she is happy it turns green, and when she is mad it leaves a big f**King red mark on my forehead. Stick with diamonds.

I'm not good with jewelry and stuff... so I was at the mall yesterday browsing around for gifts. I saw this jacket at abercrombie and fitch... I remember her pointing it out like 3 weeks back. I was running out of time so I went ahead and bought it. I'll post up some pix when I get some. man, I would love to buy her some jewelry but it was so crazy yesterday. Every store was packed.. so I said "screw it, I'll get the jacket instead."  .. but I'm going to the mall again today, might get her something else maybe try to go to tiffanys again because I don't think one jacket would cut it.. THAnks for the help guys

if u get a necklace stay away from the heart one with a small diamond in it - thats too popular and doesnt really show u put thought into it! it seems like u saw an ad for a 99 dollar one and then bought it just like everyone else!
the two birthstones is an awesome gift! -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City
