I'm a terrible shopper. This I know.

What I don't know is what to get my gf for Christmas.

Recommendations welcomed.

I don't know what your budget is but if you and your woman have been close for a while, perfume is my recommendation. You can get a bottle for under 50,000 won, which is usually my limit for a gift unless he or she is someone really special.

I like this idea, like a sexy velvet jumpsuit pajama type thing. A pretty color like pink or baby blue...chicks love things that are soft and pretty.

However, Jonephant, did you get your wife pajamas that look like these?

Because I find those most unsexy.

They are indeed the style in your link but in a different pattern and colour. http://www.cathkidstonkorea.co.kr/#1645765202
As soon as she comes home from work she changes straight into "pyjamas" so i thought she might aswell have some nice ones just to lounge around the house in. Got a draw full of past gifted sexy styled nightwear but i think she will appreciate these pyjamas the most:)

I'd say you can't go wrong with a nice frying pan or clothes iron, or if she's really special, a new vacuum cleaner.

Hey big spender!

Perfume is a terrible idea for a gift, unless you know specifically what she likes/wants!

Make something for her (big brownie points) - a cake,cookies, 2012 calander (http://bighugelabs.com/calendar.php)

+ buy something for her or take her out for a nice meal!

So I guess you didn't read what I wrote but oh well, many don't.

Perfume is always a winner in my experience. You just ask the sales lady what kind of woman you're buying it for.
