Vintage mink stole from the 70s

Holiday shopping for a woman who seems to have everything can be a daunting task. She owns a closet that seems to be beyond complete. You bought her yet another piece of jewelry for her past birthday and now the holidays are here. It seems as though it was just yesterday you were pondering what to get her. I hear you, the holidays should be timed further apart.

So, what to get her. You must first realize that it has to be something she does not really need but, instead, something she wants - strategy number one.

Strategy two: It should be something she can boast about to all her friends and family. This is where you cross Macy's, Bloomingdales and any other common shopping location from your destination list. You want to 'wow' her and she will not be 'wowed' if 10 other gals own it already or recognize it at first sight.

Here are 10 gift ideas for the lady who has everything:
