What kind of Jewelry should I buy my girlfriend?

For the great majority of women there is no such thing as having too much jewelry. Not only is jewelry a safe bet for you, with thoughtful consideration it can also serve as very special reminder and symbol of your relationship.

Where is the relationship heading?

You have two broad options when choosing jewelry for your partner. Jewelry symbolizing the relationship or jewelry purchased strictly for fashion. Relationship jewelry consists of items such as rings and pieces featuring hearts and/or other love symbols. You would choose this type of jewelry if you’re thinking of popping the question or simply want to take things a step beyond where you’re at. Fashion jewelry such as earrings, necklaces, bracelets and others are adorned simply as fashion accessories.

Understanding her fashion sense – the easy way

Take a quick peak at her jewelry box, does she wear gold, silver, gemstones? Are the pieces delicate, bold or are there any other defining features of her collection? If it’s a dog’s breakfast take note of what she wears most regularly. Realistically you should already know this shouldn’t you?

How much should you spend?

If this is your first attempt at purchasing jewelry for your lady friend and you’re not particularly aware of her likes and dislikes caution is advised. This does not mean purchasing the cheapest piece you can find. If you’re not unsure of how much to spend it utilize the element of surprise. Purchase two ‘affordable’ pieces. Present the first piece in the morning, slip the second piece under her pillow.

What is something thoughtful?

If you’re clueless as to your lady’s preference for jewelry you have two options. Diamonds and birthstones. Each type of gemstone is associated a month, pick the gemstone (birthstone) of your lady’s birth month. The store clerk will be able to tell you the birthstone you need to purchase. Gemstones vary in price quite a lot so depending upon the month your partner was born you might be hit hard. Diamonds are always thoughtful.
