nyc: I am traveling to NYC this weekend and want to get my girlfriend a nice present. Actually, she will be my fiance in about a week, so is there something I could get her from NYC and hold it until I propose to her next week? She already said, don't get me a ripoff Coach purse or anything like that.|||wow your gf is a critic. get her electronics like cameras, iphones, ipad. you know, somebody researched and found out that women likes electronics more than jewelry! good luck with the proposal!|||so get her a kick *** coach purse|||How about a 'Mink Naval Brush'?|||oh man, congrats to you, and good luck. First off, if you have the money, it'd extremely expensive but you could get her some jewelry from Tiffany & Co. on 5th Avenue; but it'll be extremely expensive. It's one of the most well known jewelers in the world and is known for its expense-i'd guarantee you she'd love something from there. It's really the only thing i can really think of off the top of my head, unless you're filthy rich and then buy her a Mink Coat lol. But the city is known for its clothing and jewelry-if you look in the right place. If you've never been to the city before, avoid all street vendors-they sell nothing but cheap ripoff products-so just ignore them. i mean, there's consumer electronic products you can buy-but you can find those anywhere (digi cams, GPS's, cell phones, iPods, etc), so i'd say something like Tiffany & Co. might be better as those stores are harder to find and she ought to recognize that company and probably freak out (in a good way) knowing you bought something for her from there. -Plus i think jewelry is always something a girl likes to get and appreciates getting. i know this isn't much to go off of, but i hope i helped..
