Home Gear: Hudson Discount

Hudson Discount

The Wellesley & Boston Hudsons are making your shopping cheap (15% off by mentioning Thrillist) and easy (so much fair-sex gear, you could pick blindfolded). Some options: Hudson's own line of pillows made from vintage seed and flower bags, Bryce & Company hand-knit cashmere throws, New Arcadia Studio's hand-painted bar glasses, or handmade Sage candles -- just in case you want to be reminded of that time you walked in on her getting plowed by Art Garfunkel.

Give her maximum rejuvenation for minimal cash by calling up Spa Newbury on December 14 or 21 to snag 50% off any Spa Service Gift Card over $50. Convince her they only do Brazilians, and it's almost like you've gifted yourself a pair of Jordan 1's and a paintball gun.

The Gift of Fashion Makeover: Crush Boutique Home Wardrobe Consultation

Crush Boutique Home Wardrobe Consultation

Since you can't tell your girlfriend to dress better, get Crush's exquisitely tasteful owners to come to her abode, then ply her with champagne before throwing open her closet and gently consulting her on what she should toss, what can stay, and what additions could be made. Be sure to hide that Xena: Warrior Princess outfit under the bed beforehand, because you don't want them tossing your stuff.

No more velour tracksuits!

Tasty Gift: Sweet Cupcakes

Sweet Cupcakes

Sweet will design a dozen fancified cupcakes with your own custom image, logo, or whatever, then deliver them in a box with a ribbon and a gift card anywhere in Boston or C-bridge -- a delicious way to tell her that you care, or a thoughtful way to tell her you no longer care, but still don't want her to have to hit the store in order to drown her sorrows in sweet cream.

Artful Gift: Good Shape Design Silkscreen Prints

Good Shape Design Silkscreen Prints

Give her something that says, "I totally appreciate your art history minor" with a print from Good Shape Design, a collective that makes whimsical, bold, and colorful silkscreens with clever names like "Rising of the Setting Sun", "A Family of Hoots", and the most honestly named piece of art ever, "The Objective is Unclear".

They've also got one with Napoleon on it! Embrace the art at GoodShapeDesign.com
