What do you give an 18 year old girl?

[platypus]

Woof woof, ooer missus and all that.

A good friend of mine is turning 18 soon enough and having a celidh. It got me thinking, what on earth do you get an 18 year old girl on her birthday?

Other then the obvious (alcohol and such).

Keep it clean and family forum friendly

Having a what now?

celidh?

Budget?

first thought was one of those photo shoot days that loads of girls seem to go on.

Something musical seems appropriate.

 

[Azza]

Music.

Seriously though, the important presents for an 18th will be given by family. Tbh unless you know her that well then I suggest girlie shop/general shop vouchers. She'll already be at the age where *spits* she'll be allowed out of the house to get whatever she wants.

Traditional Celtic dance event, apparently. God knows how it's pronounced.

Lingerie, all girls love lingerie.

It's a Ceilidh, pronounced kaylee.

They're pretty much my surrogate family, which is why I want to get her something special.

Pronounced kay-lee. A lot of fun.

@Indie - I did think about jewellery but knowing the person I don't really think it's for her.

@Sim, yeah. Maybe .

You've obviously never been to some of the ones around here. Most ceilis around here involve kids being forced to dress up in traditional outfits and dancing around.

I've been to loads at the University and various other places, always had a lot of fun.

Music, dancing, rowing, cycling that I know of. Maybe something to help her in her chosen career (she's doing medicine at Edinburgh).

Pandora jewellery or a bag (Mulberry / Chloe etc).
