So what are the top Christmas presents to buy for Filipino women?

[ASEAN NOW News]

As we are into December, it is now that time of the year when we need to consider what to buy our girlfriends or wives for Christmas.

 

Incase you are stuck for suggestions according to Tagaloglang here is there top ten gift ideas for the Filipina in your life.

1. Jewelry – diamonds, pearls or birthstones (stud earrings, a simple bracelet or a short necklace)

 

 

2. Perfume – with a box set that includes lotion (a popular fragrance with Filipino women is CK Obsession)

 

3. Flowers or Plant – as with any other woman, Filipinas love flowers, but the typical Filipina has a greener thumb than most

4. Gourmet Chocolate – box must be very pretty; can’t go wrong with Godiva

 

5. Zojirushi rice cooker – no Filipino meal is complete without perfectly cooked rice; for the practical Filipina

 

6. Filipino DVD or the latest from Hollywood

 

7. Stuffed Toy – Filipino women have a thing for stuffed animals; the larger the better… something they can hug and cuddle with

 

8. Barbie Doll representing the Philippines!

9. Gift Card – good option because she can get what she wants at her leisure; also, as a last-minute holiday gift

 

10. Latest Bestselling Book or a Good Cookbook

 

Well, if these ideas do not press all the buttons, then do not limit yourself to Filipino-oriented gifts.

 

Find out what your Filipina friend is into — Japanese sweets, Korean beauty products, K-pop, K drama, Hollywood films, American Idol, poetry — then get an appropriate gift.

 

It is the thought you put into it that matters more. Good luck!

Luckily I live in Thailand, my family are Buddhist and do not practise Christmas.

It's just another day, the kids just go to school as normal (COVID allowing)
