A diamond necklace she'll never wear? A purse to compliment her other purses? God. I suck. I wish I knew what my wife liked but she barely has any hobbies. :( I just depressed myself and it made me feel like a shitty husband. Exit left...
Regarding the first sentence, this is going to be the third year in a row my brother (not a gear head) gets me a moog expression pedal. They're cheap enough and easy enough for him to order. I literally text him a link. We've been exchanging links for years now (I get it, a brother's relationship is A LOT different than husband and wife [my brother is basically my twin]).

You're not a shitty husband. You'll do fine. Consider getting her an 'experience' instead of material things. I usually get my Mom a Spa Treatment of some kind or play tickets. If I do buy clothes for people, it's so they can start a hobby (got Mom hiking boots one year and she loved them!).

So think of stuff your wife might like to do and never pursued (in my opinion, those are the best gifts) or maybe give her the gift of relaxation or something. You'll be fine brother.

My Wife sends me links and then I order the stuff

it works out pretty well

she always wants photo gear anyway and I don't know enough to surprise her
