I know this has been asked, but my big sisters case is a lot different... She has EVERYTHING you could say, enough clothes to open up a shop, a TON of make up, heaps of perfume, stacks of CD's, lots and lots of trinkets of all kinds, videos and dvd's, heaps of jewellery, basically i dont know what she doesn't have! haha and i really wanna get her something special but because she has soo many possessions im unsure of what to get her. So far all i got is a card, and her B-days coming up real soon!
This is a hard one, but any ideas guys?? please haha
Answer
The "standard" answer to "what do you get a woman who has everything?" is "something to put it in." If she likes baskets, a basket might be ideal. For all that jewelry, perhaps a jewelry box. Or an earring holder [http://www.google.com/search?q=earring+holder&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=952&bih=607 ], necklace holder [http://www.google.com/search?q=earring+holder&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=952&bih=607#um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB%3Aofficial&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=necklace+holder&pbx=1&oq=necklace+holder&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=59523l62170l0l62490l8l7l0l0l0l0l231l1010l3.2.2l7l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=a43c866bb79d1762&biw=952&bih=607 ], or multipurpose jewelry holder [http://www.google.com/search?q=earring+holder&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=952&bih=607#um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB%3Aofficial&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=jewelry+holder&oq=jewelry+holder&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=39705l41489l0l41929l7l7l0l0l0l3l248l1387l0.4.3l7l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=a43c866bb79d1762&biw=952&bih=607 ].
What does she love? My late husband and I had the same sort of problem you have, because we both pretty much bought what we wanted and didn't want much. We solved the problem by buying things that supported each others' hobbies--but not tools or supplies. Things we bought didn't have to cost a lot, they just had to show a lot of thought. For example, at different times, we gave each other Barns & Noble gift cards because we both love[d] to read. When he couldn't get warm enough, I knitted huge fuzzy socks that couldn't be purchased anywhere. When he took up a new hobby, I found out-of-print books about it for him. He bought me subscriptions to periodicals related to my hobby. Nothing big or fancy, just things that were specifically for the recipient.
And it doesn't have to be "things." What you might do for your sister, for example, is make scrapbook pages of some of your shared history. You could start a scrapbook and add pages on gift-giving holidays. Write out a list of why she's a super sister and have it framed or made into a plaque.

Need a female birthday gift idea?

My fiance Will be turning 23 this friday, and I am taking her on a romantic getaway at a resort, and I reserved the romantic room and everything, and the place does lots of special things for her while she is there. But, I still need an idea of something that I could get her as a gift. I cant think of a gift that would even compare to the romantic getaway. She is extremely low maintenance, she does like some jewelry, just not much. She doesn't wear makeup, and she never asks for anything. She is a college student full time. She works very hard every day at school, and she deserves a little break. Basically, I need a gift for the woman who doesn't need or want anything.
Answer
It seems like this getaway for her is all that she needs =)!!! That's such an amazing gesture already!!!! You said she likes some jewelry but not probably anything too big or glamours, why don't you get her a small diamond necklace of some sort or some kind of jewelry that she can keep forever. Jewelry is something that she can take home with her from the resort and when she looks at it she will remember the amazing time she had with you there. If you get her something small and simple she could wear it with any outfit. I have a friend of mine that doesn't wear jewelry and also doesn't wear makeup (she's kind of a tomboy). But her boyfriend got her a small heart necklace made from gold and she loved it, and wore it with everything. It's just an idea but I am not sure how you feel about it. My husband also got me a diamond heart necklace and I wear it everyday, because it's simple and goes with everything. Just an idea and maybe you've totally crossed off jewelry already but it's always an option....it's something she can have forever.
