Knowing what present to buy your girlfriend isn't always as easy as you think. Luckily, europinions have come up with some great gift ideas for you to consider.

1. Jewellery

When was the last time you surprised her with a well-chosen pair of earrings, or a charming necklace? Has she been complaining that she has nothing to match her favourite top? It's a hint.

2. Perfume

You may think the bottled smelly water is the biggest rip-off of the age, but face facts - she doesn't. The chances are that you already know what fragrance she likes, or didn't you pay attention the last time you were in Boots? Here are some names that might ring a bell:
Anna Sio, Aramis, Calvin Klein, Cartier, Chanel, Chloe, Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Elizabeth Arden, Estee Lauder, Givenchy, Gucci, Jean Paul Gaultier, Lancome, Paul Smith, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Valentino, Versace, Yves Saint Laurent

The world of cosmetics can seem fairly daunting to even the most intrepid of boyfriends. Aisle after aisle after aisle, and that's just the lip-gloss! It's enough to make you scream, but now is not the time to panic. Shop online and you'll find it's a lot easier to find the right gift. See what we have to offer to get you started.

4. Flowers

Maybe not a main present, but an excellent way to put the icing on the cake. She's just taken a sniff of her new Chloe, the earrings are looking great and, oh, what's this? A gorgeous bouquet of red roses? What a good boy!

5. Luxury Chocolates

Again, these are very much for extra points. You can't go far wrong with posh chocolates.

6. Hair Dryer/Hair styling products

There are simply hundreds of hair dryers, straighteners, curlers, crimpers, etc. out there.

7. Kitchen gadgets

Be careful with this section. If your girlfriend is proud of her kitchen, you've nothing to fear, get straight in there with a deluxe food processor. If, on the other hand, her main rule of cooking is "always pierce the protective film before placing on a non-metallic plate", you might be better with one of these options: Juicer, Coffee maker, Bread Maker

8. Clothes

Whether its boot cut jeans or evening dresses; halterneck tops or cardigans, you'll find everything you want online.

9. Lingerie

You'll need the vital stats of course but if you choose well you're on to a winner.

10. Experience gifts

This can really be a great present. Why not send her off for the day to pamper herself in a luxury health spa? A massage, jacuzzi and makeover, she'll love you for it.
