Just give her the money, avoids the chance you'll buy her something she doesn't really even like (even though she'll probably lie and say she does).

See, I find that clothes are a really terrible option, as you might get the wrong size, and if you do, there can be a huge shitstorm.
I like the idea of a photography book. Something like showing how amazing photography can be is nice, maybe National Geographic? (I can't remember the exact name, but I am sure it is available lots of places around the web)
Otherwise, maybe a really nice pair of earbuds? It does sound like you have some scratch if you were thinking of getting her a vacation! You should easily be able to afford a nice pair of buds, and since they come with all different sizes of tips, there should be one that would fit her well.

I've gotten a gift card for custom made jeans before, and I thought that was really cool. Originally Posted by Idrinkwhiterussians

In this case, yeah that would be amazing, but if it were from a store... LOOK OUT FOR THE FLYING TABLE! Originally Posted by Reeve

Your background and your sisters music / photographic taste made me think of anton corbijn, a netherland photograph for bands like u2
I am not sure if there are any exhibitions in germany / netherlands running atm, i saw one at Kassels Documenta some years ago, and another in munich in the early 2000s. A book of corbijn work (he is the guy that makes music vids for u2, nirvana, depeche mode) would make a great gift for your sis.

Don't buy her anything, and get a cake (Chocolate cake! everyone loves chocolate!) and make a small celebration... or... don't do tomorrow and tell your parents to ignore her birthday, and then trow a surprise party next sunday with your family and some of her closest friends + a chocolate cake.... (THERE SHOULD BE CHOCOLATE!)

What the fuck is going on here. I only read page one but she's getting trips to Paris and you want to buy her and her boyfriend a vacation yourself?
How much money do you have?
Wtf lol who gets presents like that? I can't even remember what I got for my 18th birthday. I'm pretty sure it was nothing, maybe a dinner or a game or something. The fuck?
Oh wait no I got a PS3 for my 18th birthday. Or a new computer. I forgot which.
But a trip to Italy!?!??! How rich are you.

she will be 18...in the end it would be her choice. that is an amazing idea, though you might want to talk to her boyfriend, get him to ask her places she'd like to visit, she may not want Italy. Originally Posted by StayTuned

18th birthdays are special! You should give her a present that acknowledges that she's now an adult. Booze,Cigarettes,Sex toys(Make-a-willy) are the most common ones and often the most popular to the recipient. If you want to be a bit more mature and less creepy you could go the grandma route. Start a savings fund with a few hundred in it in her name.

The nerve is called the "nerve of awareness". You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...

I've got some money to spare. I think it's my choice on how to spend my money. And since I had a shitty 18th birthday I wanted to do my sister something nice and make it special for her. However, my dad came first and got her the trip to Paris, which is why I have to stick to something small, yet still nice.

My go-to shop for buying gifts for women (which is a minefield for men!) is the https://www.lush.co.uk/ shop. I don't know if you've got something similar where you live, but you can get gift packages there that are pre-wrapped.

Oh and guys, this is my SISTER, not my girlfriend. I don't know where you live, but here we don't hand out sex toys to younger sisters. Creepers.

Depends on how much you love and cherish your sister. Since you don't talk much why not just give her some money? Money is everyones best friend. Or you could buy her a big gift, since she's into photographing stuff she will need a nice camera, or a nice multimedia type of hardware such as a mac (even though Im a PC guy) or could get her something similar.
But ya, just send her cash.
Aveline's amazing work!

Because I think it's a pity that we got so distant from each other. The difference in years was always a little bit high (I am a bit more than 6 years older) and since I moved out we barely have any contact. Giving out some cash wouldn't be so nice in my opinion. I'd like to show that I still care about her. Originally Posted by Valiea

I like the camera idea, she can use it to take pictures at shows as well as daily stuff.
