    not sure about chanel, i'd guess around 50euro. theres a discount perfume place in the ilac center beside H&M
    (heres some prices http://www.kelkoo.co.uk/sbs/133501/10343570.html)

    i wouldn't limit yourself specifically to one brand of shoes though, just go and buy whatever you like and think she'd like.

    if i was you and wanted to spend that much though, i'd get a weekend away for just you and her. perfume might last a year, shoes might last a season, but memories last a life time!

    edit: plus you get something too, its a win win situation

    Check out strawberrynet.com for perfume prices.

    Irregular choice shoes last way more than a season - they are very special shoes - you either love them or you hate them and I know loads of girls who love them. Check out schuh.co.uk for the latest styles.

    That Victor and Rolf perfume is just fantastic, got a free sample in BT last week!! Think it's about 85- per bottle but is so hard to get..

    thanks petek and co.
    i did hint a holiday and had planned to go to rome and would have cost me over 600 but she kept moaning about work and i realised she never spends much on me AT ALL so.

    There's a somewhat recent forum for gifts - Gift & Festivity & Party Ideas

    Necklace?

    Depending on her age, my Chanel recommendation would be Madamoiselle. Its a little younger!


    Can't believe you are taking in consideration that she never spends much on you at all, when deciding on her gifts though!!!!!!:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    shes 22
    im not like that but over the past 3 years ive spent over 300 on bday+xmas, just tired of it.:rolleyes:

    Open a savings account for her!!!:D:D

    Seriously though!What about one good decent designer bag? (with bottle of chanel inside - optional!)
    Every girl should have a designer bag (except, if she's the type liable to loose it!)
    You could get a nice real leather bag for €200-€250 in BT's.

    cud have gotten juicy one, damn

    anyway got her shoes = 95 euros
    some juicy c necklace = 125

    also went into mac looking awful, those girls look like dolls !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 62 ✭✭Popsicle


    I agree!! I mean I am all for a bit of make-up but this painted face look is disgusting!! If they are trying to sell the make-up by wearing it, there are not exactly doing a great job!!!

    I'm sure she'll love her presents! Hope she thanks you now!!

    Chance, Chanel is lovely perfume but I must say my new favourite perfume is Daisy by Marc Jacobs, I love it! It comes in a lovely bottle with a daisy shaped top and it smells gorgeous! I would really recommend it as a gift. I don't think you can buy it in very many shops (Brown Thomas, Arnotts, House of Fraser etc. all stock it) so that means that half the country won't be going around smelling like it which often happens with new perfumes.

    Whatever you end up buying, I hope she likes it as you are obviously putting a lot of thought into it!:)
