As long ad she asked, you're good to go! I know way to many men who've heard their wives comment they'd like to get nicer [insert everyday household item here] and nen take that as a great idea for a gift. It's not always received well! But if she asked for super nice towels then go forth with confidence!!

Thanks mate : )

I understand what you're talking about but we know each other very well and those sorts of mis-directions aren't a problem. There are some things I know absolutely not to buy for her.

But these towels aren't the whole of her Christmas... There'll be a few unknowns.

Sallying forth... with confidence!

Bingo.

I get the ones that are on their way to the dog-drying towel pile.

We are almost done with a very extensive bath remodel in our house. Our current towels are cheap things from Costco that don’t match the new room. I got a big set of matching towels from Brooklinen and I beg to differ, I’m quite sure my wife will be really happy to get some really nice towels for the new room.
