In short
- The best gift for your wife is what she wanted but never bought herself.
- Sneak a look at her sizes and favourite colours in the wardrobe.
- An Italian mohair cardigan is everyday luxury, not a shelf ornament.
- Pair the gift with time together.
After years together, the most precious feeling is being known. Here is how to show it with a gift.
Covert preparation
- Peek into her wardrobe: her sweater size (S, M, L) and the colours she owns most.
- Remember what she lingered over in shop windows or on social media.
- Think about where she gets cold: at home, at the office, in the car?
Ideas
Luxury she will actually use - The Blush kid mohair & silk cardigan: tender and versatile. - Rosie: a shimmering oversized knit for cold evenings. - Coral: for a vivid wife who loves attention.
Comfort at home - Mohair & silk ruffle socks. - An evening with no kids and no chores: a film, wine, a warm blanket.
