    Pour Femme: A List Of Valentine's Day Gift Suggestions For The Ladies



    If you don't know, I'm a guy. And Valentine's Day is really tough on some of us. We are the forgotten when it comes to gift-giving. It's true. It's true. * sniffle *

    However, that doesn't excuse the fellas from doing their duties. I'm not the type of guy who likes to bs around. I rather get it straight from the source! WOMEN. So...

    Last night, and today, I've asked users on Twitter and Facebook. What are some gift suggestions for Valentine's Day for ladies. Some answers I expected. Some surprised me. And some people are getting Valentine's Day mixed up with Christmas. And not real Christmas. But Santa Claus at Macy's Christmas.

    Nevertheless. Here's the list compiled. Fellas, this list is just a guide. You are still required, by her, to know what she want, needs, and be able to read her mind!

    Edible Arrangements
    Well this is nice. An arrangement of goodies with a balloon and a teddy bear. The trick is to get this delivered to her job in the middle of the day. That's how you win. And you can even eat the bear too! Nah. I'm kidding. You can't eat the bear...technically.
    My Berry Valentine $84 / Edible Arrangements

    Sephora Gift Card
    Another W in your column fellas. Unless your lady is just not a fan of beauty products at all, this recession proof consumer item will never let you down. But don't walk into Sephora thinking you're going to buy the absolute right thing that she wants based on name alone. Even if the product looks the same what she has in the bathroom, don't chance it. Play it safe. GIFT CARD!
    Sephora Gift Card $Varies / Sephora

    Shoes
    I mean, this IS Pumpsicle. You could really just slide through the archives and tags all day and get inspired. Here's a little more. The 4" stacked heel Tory Burch Wrap-Up Sandals sport criss crossing leather straps with leather lining and padded insole.

    Tory Burch Wrap-Up Sandals $325 / Saks

    Perfume
    I prefer that women smell liked baked goods. But this isn't about me. This is about her. Go for the win, that new Chance by Chanel is available!
    Chance by Chanel $50.00 / Neiman Marcus

    Scented Oils
    Ha. Fellas, if you live like I live, you probably know somebody who's going to bring a whole bunch of these into the barber shop ANYWAY.

    Chocolate
    I'm not really big on V-Day candy. All of the good stuff you can get at the grocers at the little "impulse buying" section near the tabloid magazines and the cash register.
    Whitman's Sampler Assorted Chocolates $7.99 / CVS

    Mascato
    The Wine Specialist in DC has Ceretto Grappa di Moscato. If you're a half decent cook. Make a nice candle light dinner for 2 and pour out a lil' Moscato for the homies. :)
    Ceretto Grappa di Moscato / $69.99 The Wine Specialist

    Shopping Spree
    What?


    Handwritten Letter / Poems
    Touching and from the heart, a handwritten letter and/or poem is really a rarity nowadays. We're in this age where information and communication is handled mechanically and digitally. Buy a card, and write a great message!
    Personalized V-Day Cards $Varies / Hallmark

    Clutch / Handbag
    Just like the shoes, we have lots of information on clutches and handbags here at Pumpsicle and all you got to do is check the articles. The black Givenchy Melancholia Studded Shoulder Bag is a leather flap front bag with magnetic snap closure and removable, studded shoulder strap.
    Givenchy Melancholia Studded Shoulder Bag $1,715.00 / Barney's

    Handcuffs
    Rhinestone Handcuffs $49.00 / Frederick's of Hollywood

    Day Spa
    How can one go wrong with a Day Spa? You can't. "Royalty Package"
    Body Treatment of Choice, 1/2 Massage, Manicure, Pedicure, and Facial. Includes lunch.
    Soul Day Spa And Salon $315 / Soul

    DVD's
    Who wouldn't love a pack of past seasons of House, M.D.? That show's great! And nothing says I Love You like a cranky douchebag genius doctor with a Sherlock Holmes complex.
    House, MD: Seasons 1 - 4 Collection $83.13 / Amazon

    Tiffany's
    Heart key charm with a round brilliant diamond in sterling silver. Size mini, 1" long. Key and chain sold separately.
    Keys Heart Key Charm $300 / Tiffany.com

    Sex Coupons
    You don't have to necessarily purchase these. If you're crafty, you can create your own and add your own personal touch to them. But I play to win. So cover all bases and buy.
    Great Sex Coupons $5.95 / Amazon

    Vibrator
    You know I'm not going to add an image on this right? If the "Rabbit" is your thing. Here's where you go:
    The Rabbit Vibrator $98.88 / The Rabbit Vibrator

    Well that's my wrap-up for Valentine's Day. If you have more suggestions, comments, etc. please put it below. Monday, there will be a list for the fellas over at MANDOM. I hope to see you over there as well.

    Pony Ryder Interviews Jeneil Williams

    Jeneil Williams

    Pony Ryder has a great interview with Jeneil Williams in which they cover her arrival to New York Models, and her daily rituals. Get to know her.

    Pony Ryder: How would you describe your childhood in Jamaica?
    Jeneil Williams: It was hard; I was forced to grow up really fast.

    P: What made you enter the model search?
    J: My family encouraged me to enter the model search and I always wanted to model so I just entered.

    P: We heard that you have a really warm personality. How do you deal with arrogance from other people?
    J: Arrogance comes with jealousy and I ignore them.

    P: Did you know that you would have to do some nude shots before accepting the job?
    J: Yes I knew that it was going to be a nude shoot – I am very happy with my body so I had no problem doing it.

    P: As we all saw, you have an amazing body! Do you owe it all to Pilates, or do you do some other type of exercise as well?
    J: No I owe most of it to track and field; I used to do track back in high school.

    P: How often per week do you do Pilates?
    J: I do pilates now to tone up at least twice a week.

    P: Do you exfoliate, scrub and use body lotions as well? What's your ritual?
    J: Yes I cleanse and exfoliate everynight and I use a facial mask every now and again. I love Jergen’s lotion with a mix of Johnson’s baby gel.

    You can read the entire interview over on PR.
