Us girls usually love hitting the stores, but shopping for that special man in your life can be a complete nightmare, and when he says he doesn’t want anything, the chances are that he doesn’t really mean it. One thing is for sure, he doesn’t need another tie, wallet or pair of socks! Again, it is best to think about things that he likes to do rather than opt for the standard gifts which will end up at the back of a drawer.
Gifts Fo Him r
Clothes: Whilst most women buy clothes for a special occasion or simply because they like them, men buy them when they really need them. A favourite pair of jeans and T-shirt can last for years, so if you think that its time to update the look then it may be up to you to take the initiative. Of course, this still means choosing clothes that he will be comfortable in, rather than what you think will look good! If he is most at home in casual clothes, then a selection of printed T-shirts is a winner, and a pair of smart jeans will help to refresh his image rather than alter it!
Aftershave: Most men do like to smell nice too, although wouldn’t usually go out and purchase smellies for themselves. Therefore, Christmas is the perfect time to splash out on his favourite scent.
Sport Accessories: If your other half is a sports fan, there are a plethora of gift options which will put a smile on his face. A round of golf or new set of clubs perhaps; or a day spent at the race track or quad biking? Tickets to go and watch his favourite team are guaranteed to go down a treat, or why not try to find out if there are any big matches coming up for an extra special surprise. Football shirts and other equipment are also top choices.
Entertainment: Does he have a favourite singer or band that has recently released a new album? Or maybe an Actor who he likes has just released a movie? Alternatively, if he reads, why not purchase the latest offering from his favourite Author. Any of these will provide great stocking fillers and show your man that you have paid attention to the things that interest him.
Road Trip: Everyone loves to get out and about, so for a really memorable Christmas gift, why not plan a day out somewhere. There is a wealth of interesting places to visit across the Costa Blanca, but how many of us really take the time to go out and explore? Plan ahead so that you are not driving around aimlessly and be sure to make plenty of stops, to take in the sights and local dishes along the way. You could even extend the day with an evening meal and overnight stay somewhere for a romantic finish to your adventure.
