Ten Great Gift Ideas for Your Girlfriend

1. Jewelry; It doesn't matter how far along your relationship is the fact of the matter is, women love to receive jewelry. If you're just starting out then go for earrings or a bracelet, that won't make you feel uncomfortable and at the same time she will be extremely happy and proud to wear something special that you've picked out just for her. When searching for the right piece of jewelry there are a couple places that I've had great experiences, or friends have recommended to me. First there is 'Jared The Galleria Of Jewelry', and second there is 'Fred Meyer jewelers', they both have very experienced and knowledgeable employees eager to help you find exactly what you are looking for.

2. Lingerie; Now make sure when you are deciding what type of lingerie to purchase for her that it is something that she won't be offended by. Maybe something that you would like her to wear isn't something that she would be comfortable wearing, so just be sure to know her taste and remember that she is the one going to be wearing it, not you. So maybe she would be more comfortable wearing a 'boy short' panty, rather than a thong, just keep in mind how she feels before purchasing her lingerie. 'Victoria's Secret' is probably the best place to shop for lingerie at, they have the best selection and they are always having sales or special promotions so you will save quite a bit shopping there.

3. Bath stuff; When you think of women relaxing, the first thing that comes to mind is a nice hot bubble bath (for me anyway), so if you are looking for bath gifts you should really consider different scents of bubble baths, there are so many different kinds to choose from so it really depends on her preference of scents, there are also bath beads, and bath salts available that soothe and help to relax the body. Try shopping at 'Bath and Body Works', they have everything you can imagine when it comes to bathing and taking care of your skin.

4. Candles; Aromatherapy candles help to calm and relax the body and mind, and they are the perfect compliment to a bath. Again make sure you know what scents she likes so you are sure to match her personality completely. 'Bath and Body Works' also has a great selection of aromatherapy candles to choose from.

5. Watch; Everyone needs to know what time it is so what a perfect gift, give your girlfriend the gift of time. 'Jared The Galleria Of Jewelry' and 'Fred Meyer Jewelers' are the perfect place to shop for a dazzling watch that is sure to 'knock the socks off' of your girlfriend.

6. Parfume; Scent is a beautiful way to make a memory, not to mention the easiest. 'Yves Rocher' has some amazing scents for women, weather she likes musk, floral, or sensual, there is definitely something for her at 'Yves Rocher'. If you're not quite sure how to tell how something smells, there are always little paragraphs about each different scent so there would be no confusion, the paragraphs read as if you are talking about a person, so if that person sounds like your girlfriend the chances are pretty darn good that she'll love that particular perfume.

7. Art; Everyone can admire a great work of art, weather it be a painting, a vase, a statue, or just a simple trinket you stumble upon. I've noticed through the years that little trinkets are a very popular gift idea from guys to girls too, just think of what she is interested in and I'm sure you can find a little something to fit the description. Maybe a little fairy statue, cats? Or other animals? Whatever it is that she is passionate about or cares deeply for, I'm sure there is something for her at 'Hallmark', they have tons of little trinkets, mugs, gag gifts and of course cards. You could also check out 'Coach House Gifts' they are just like Hallmark but Coach house has a lot more trinkets, gadgets and do dads for you to check out.

8. Make-up; Girls wear make-up to impress you guys. So here is the perfect make-up for every girl, 'Bare Minerals', you've had to have seen the infomercials by now, 'the powder foundation that's good for your skin', right? Well from personal experience, I absolutely love Bare Minerals foundation, not only does it do everything the infomercials say it will do, it builds confidence too and with that built confidence from knowing your face looks amazing she will feel amazing and in return that basically bounces right back to you, you will be benefiting from her feeling great, and she will definitely thank you for this one.

9. Movies; Pick some of her favorite movies, yes even if they are romantic movies, so that the two of you can spend a night cuddled together enjoying each other's company for a great movie night that she won't forget. 'Blockbuster' always has great sales on previously viewed DVDs, usually 2 for $20.00 sometimes better deals than that. 'Wal-Mart' also has great deals new releases are usually priced at $14-$15.00 or $19.00 for a special edition or special bonus pack.

10. Magazine subscription; Girls love celebrity gossip, so what better way to give her all the gossip she can handle than to get her a magazine subscription to her favorite celebrity gossip magazine. Sure you'll probably hear more than you can handle about Britney Spears and K-Fed, or 'who's the new man in Jen's life" but hey, isn't it really about making her happy? Here are a few celebrity gossip magazines, 'People', 'Glamour', 'Allure', and 'Jossip'.

So there is my top ten list of gifts, I hope it was helpful and you found at least some of it useful. And just remember, no matter what you give her she won't think any less of you, but finding the right gift will surely make a great impression. So good luck to all you guys out there shopping and hopefully you find exactly what you, and she are looking for.
