    GC to Victoria's Secret?

    How about a "Pamper Me" basket? small box of chocolates, a candle, bottle of wine or champagne (sparkling cider if she doesn't drink), and wine glasses, wonderful bubble bath, and bath pillow, new bath puff or monogrammed washcloth/towel . . .

    i like the pamper me basket idea...
    it could be samples, trial sizes of things she may like or you know she likes.
    Hit one of those "bath and beauty" stores... or VS has their own line of lotions and stuff too!

    maybe a giftcard to a store that has nice dresses (so she can pick up a man!)... OR take her out shopping to the store - make your own "certificate" of a day of beauty... go shopping together, help pick out dresses... even if you don't BUY anything, she'll have an experience gift AND know what best looks on her by you complimenting her....

    a day at the spa? you could go with her, or a friend of hers could go.

    what about friends? does she ever get out with friends?
    maybe a giftcard to a fave restaurant she & friends can do lunch.

    i'll think some more...
