Gifts For The Lady :What do women want?

-

MANILA, Philippines - When it comes to choosing gifts for women, most men need a roadmap to guide them. There are twists and turns on the road, a lot of roadblocks, and very few signs to indicate what she really wants. 

Rustan’s provides that roadmap, so, guys, don’t panic.

The confusion probably started when men were boys and they would give their moms gifts like a can of earthworms they collected from the garden or a necklace made of spaghetti — and their moms always loved the gifts.

Then gift-giving got a little more complicated growing up. Your girlfriend would pretend she liked your gift, but there was that micro-expression that you barely caught and she looked away when she said, “I love it!” to your “Do you like it?”

Married men are confounded as well, which leads women to wonder whether their husbands really know them.

Many households are probably having this kind of a dialogue during the season of giving:

He said: “What do you want for Christmas, hon?”

She said: “Whatever you want to give me.” 

Her thought bubble: OMG, please don’t let him give me another ugly T-shirt.

His thought bubble: OMG, why don’ you just tell me what you want?

He said: (trying another tack) “What’s on your wish list?”

She said: “I’ve everything I need, so whatever you give me is fine.”

His thought bubble: I think I’m going to get her a T-shirt.

The poor guy goes shopping by himself, still clueless, and buys a T-shirt that his girl will probably never wear in public.

Rustan’s Department Store comes to the rescue with gift ideas that will brighten a woman’s Christmas Day and beyond. You can choose from German leather maestro Braun Büffel bags and wallets; accessories from Evita Peroni; fancy Japanese-style slippers from Fitflop; intimate wear from Wacoal; bags from Fendi and Emilio Pucci; cosmetic cases from Trina Turk; scents from Santa Maria Novella; Diptyque to make her room and her skin smell good; Chanel No. 5 oil and perfume to layer her scent; and Dior makeup.

Women have different personalities and Rustan’s knows women. With these gift suggestions, Rustan’s has your back. You’re safe this holiday — your gift will surely be used and loved.
