As many colors as you can imagine but black and red are almost always a safe bet.

Do none of these seem right for the ladies in your life? I’ve got you covered.
What junk thing has she been dealing with? Old boots? Old tools? A ripped tote bag? Buy her what she needs as much as what she wants. Where is she struggling? How can you alleviate her work load with an item? Practical isn’t unwelcome.
Be careful though fellas, no woman ever wanted a new trash can for Christmas. And just say no to those lotion gift packs from Walmart. And don’t be offended if she trades in one sweater for another. It’s best to have what works.
And in closing most women won’t turn down wine, an adventure, or a live show (whether it’s death metal or broadway is on you).
