Choosing the right gifts for your wife is a challenging task, especially if it feels like you’ve already given her everything. News flash: perfume and jewelry aren’t the only things you can get her! We put together a list of creative gifts for every kind of woman just to prove it. Us? Competitive? No… never.
From fashion and beauty gift ideas, to yoga mats and NFTs, we mean it when we say we’ve got something for everyone (and probably a bunch of stuff you’ll want too).
Gifts Your Wife Will Actually Want to Keep
1. LL Bean Women’s Wicked Good Slippers, Squam Lake, $79

4. Murder Most Puzzling Book, $17
Calling all true crime fans. Rather, husbands and wives of true crime fans who have been subjected to learning about the gruesome details of heinous crimes over dinner. She’ll love this puzzle book where she devour all the gruesome details of fake crimes. You probably won’t love it as much.
