This is the age old question that doesn't really mean anything but men love to say when describing their mates. It was a phrase that was used to describe rich women in English society who lived in luxury and literally had everything.
Nowadays, men use this phrase when they don't know what to get their women for their birthday or for Valentine's day. They typically feel like they are stuck trying to find some new piece of women's personalized jewelry for their mates while ignoring the obvious: there are more things to get a women that just a piece of jewelry. You are allowed to be creative.
Let me explain a second: women like creativity. For some reason men have been forced into the idea that their significant other only likes something that is shiny and attached to ring or necklace. I will admit that women are mostly to blame for this. We love jewelry and we love to show it off. But there is more to us then just shiny objects. As each women is different our ideas in what we like for gifts is also different.
Take me for example. I love sports. I'm a sports nut, always have been. I would much rather go to a baseball or hockey game then be taken to the fanciest restaurant in town. I like jewelry but I wouldn't be upset if my husband picked taking me to a playoff game over a diamond necklace. My husband knows this too because I, gasp, told him.
I feel like too many women out there leave it to their husbands to figure out what they want instead of telling them what they want. I had an ex-friend tell me once that she never tells her husband what she wants because after this long he should know. To me that's rubbish, and it just seems like too big of a game to play.
As a woman you should be able to tell your husband what you want in a gift. It's your responsibility because women are typically harder to shop for then men. This is because, throughout history, men have been getting the wrong idea, mostly thanks to women. If you want a gold ring fine, but if you don't want a gold ring and you don't tell your husband this you run of the risk of getting one. It's not his fault, it's yours.
What do you get a woman who has everything? Your husband doesn't know, so if you want something you might as well tell him.
