Shotglass – Anne Taintor, P1,450.00
Rustans
Ancient wisdom says that love is an overflowing cup; we say it’s a pair of shot glasses. Pop a bottle of light wine (unless she’s still breastfeeding!) at home, dim the lights, and make it a contest as to who can down the most number of shots. It’s the one time in the year you’re both allowed to get drunk – take advantage.



Clinique Almost Lipstick, P1,100.00
At department stores nationwide
Nothing can be more sensual than a woman’s soft lips. Try this new lipstick from Clinique, in ultra flattering sheer shades with hues ranging from natural nudes to pretty pinks to deep violets and reds, and send your husband swooning. (Available shades include Tender Honey, Luscious Honey, Spicy Honey, Shy Honey, Lovely Honey and Chic Honey.)



The Lacy Lady Nightie, $95.00

This body-fitting lace nightie in red speaks love in any language.

Spaziale Bodyrobe, P3,225.00
Rustans
Make an unannounced visit to your wife’s office and kidnap her for the day, and tell her you packed only this for your overnight stay in an undisclosed place (you gotta plan for this, of course). What happens next is up to you.
