I think you should ask for a suit with edge. Something with a detail that will make it more you so you can be conservative but still you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586991 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 01:40:07 +0000 catgirl 586991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, that would be the best present EVER. However, I think that will have to wait till a big birthday (the big 5-0?)! Chances are I still will not have my act together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586984 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 01:24:50 +0000 AJ 586984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooohhhh, had to log back in to echo Sona's idea!

We have a couple in this little plebian city with no shopping to speak of. A expensive ladies shop would likely make a recommendation and you can interview the said designer and see her styles. She would also want to meet with you to check out your style and talk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586943 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:40:48 +0000 Anonymous 586943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Romantic vacation for two? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586932 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:33:43 +0000 Transcona Shannon 586932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about the Rag &amp; Bone jacket??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586917 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:24:50 +0000 bj1111 586917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>a custom suit is a great idea...i wondis now is the time to do so? it requires so much mental effort to pick out a good tailore, the silhouette, pants and jacket, skirt or dress, what material, what color. you mentioned being swamped at work leading to this "at sea" feeling a out dress. now about an iou present for later in the year when you have some breathing roomto decide? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586892 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:09:36 +0000 Isabel 586892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOOO, I love the idea of a custom suit. Do you have any big stores that you can call to recommend you to a tailor ? It can even be a men's tailor that does bespoke.</p> <p>I would also vote for a really great, lightweight leather jacket or some Fidji "pumps" for work but very Una. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586884 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:05:31 +0000 catgirl 586884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>christieanne, he's trained to be obedient. If I don't ask, he's likely to get something like a Nordstrom card or a gift certificate to my hair salon...</p> <p>Hmm, where does one get a custom suit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586880 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:03:06 +0000 Freckles 586880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Custom designed suit (jacket, dress, whatever you fancy), </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586878 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 00:02:03 +0000 christieanne 586878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You were saying you need work shoes but that's not too exciting for your birthday. Is he a practical gift giver or a statement gift giver?<br /> Gift card to Nordstrom? Do you do online from there or is there one in AK? If you went in person, maybe a lunch date and soemthing fun tied into it or personal shopping appt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586873 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 23:58:00 +0000 Jewell 586873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first inclination was to say a handbag, but that was before I got to the part where you stated you're not a bag lady. My next thought was jewelry. If jewels don't really do it for you, then I say cash or gift cards. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brithday-present-ideas#post-586872 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 23:54:54 +0000 catgirl 586872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, amazingly, i can't think what to ask my husband to get me for my birthday. It's all part of my current "lost at sea" mode. What do you think would get the most bang for my birthday buck right now? I am really lame in the bag department, but I also am not a bag lady. Also not big on pricey jewelry. Shoes? A suit? Cold hard cash? </p>
