I'm a little younger and top of my list is a hot chocolate velvetiser 😂 I've also asked for Marc Jacobs 'perfect', a Fitbit and Loungefly purse for the more expensive stuff. Other less expensive things are Baileys, Gin, fluffy socks, fluffy blankets, stationary, smellies etc. I have to write a list for my OH or he buys me weird things (an electric heater and a Kitchen roll holder to name a few). 😂

I would just ask her straight, what would she like? Or as above, ask friends and family.

Slippers, pjs & dressing gown (matching colours/theme)
Nice bottle of her favourite tipple (pink gin for me)
Scarf & gloves
Chocolates (not Christmas without chocolate)
Spa weekend brake in a fancy hotel (minimum of two nights)
Purse, maybe she has a particular brand she loves?
Bag to match the purse
Perfume
Would she like the dyson hairdryer? Curler or GHD straightners
Thanks Tilly there great ideas ...I love how you like a minimum of two night break please 😂😂

In that case, keep the receipts! Best advice so far.

The only advice I would give is keep the receipts and check sizes in her wardrobe of things she regularly wears. Or phone her best friend or Mum for advice. The main thing is that you put thought into it and it is given with love ❤️
Thanks Mel ...like you say just because I’m struggling for ideas doesn’t mean I don’t love her ...she’s not your typical perfume jewellery easy to by for kind of woman 😂

Have you thought about a pair of socks, wellies, hair brush, picture of you (now that would be a good one)

Pitty we did not know your girlfriend as well as you so we knew what she liked
🤣🤣🤣

Tell this to my husband!
I could hint away all year and he would not notice 😫
He should know me by now, we have been together for 23 years on Christmas eve 💗
But he is clueless regarding gifts.
He would not think to go out his way to ask for ideas 🙈

I would book an experience day for when this is all over, something fun you can both do together. Meal at The Shard or Dinner at a posh hotel
Don’t buy her a superscrubber or she won’t be your GF for much longer x
