Buying jewelry for the woman you love is a challenge at best. Here are the questions to ask: What are my choices? What does she want? What size? How much should I spend? These are all good questions.
You have choices of the type of jewelry, rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. Then you have choices of metals, yellow gold, white gold, platinum, silver and more. And then there are the gems. Make a mental note - real gems are always better than fake gems. Even a small authentic gem is preferable to a large fake gem. If you have any doubts, ask a woman.
To figure out what she wants, listen when she talks about jewelry. Some women like to drop hints. Think about her personality and lifestyle. If she's conservative, she might like simple, classic jewelry. Does she enjoy handmade or artisan items? Consider something unique and handcrafted made with fine materials. Does she line frills and lace? You get the idea. Do any of these styles show up in her jewelry box?
The quickest way to determine her sizes is to friends and family. Another option is to measure the pieces in her jewelry box. If none of those options work, consider taking some of her jewelry pieces to the jewelry store so they can size them for you.
To determine how much to spend, consider the occasion from her point of view. The more meaningful the occasion to her, the more you can spend. That means every anniversary is important! Her first Mother's Day is very important, although you really don't need to go crazy. How about a charm bracelet or a ring with the baby's birthstone? You do have the birthstone list, right?
Bring yourself up to speed before you're ready to purchase anything. Do your homework online. The knowledge you gain will help make the shopping experience a lot more comfortable. The goal is to make a thoughtful, personal purchase. You certainly don't need a piece of jewelry that turns her finger green. The bottom line is: Learn about jewelry quality. It will save you some grief in the long term.
Most guys aren't used to actually shopping for items. Most often we march in grab what we need and head for the door. This time you need to shop. Compare the quality, value and price of jewelry across several stores. If you've done your homework, this part should be easy. When you're ready to buy, choose an established company. If you need them later, they'll be there for you.
Now you're almost ready to do the giving. Remember why you've gone through this. To help express an emotion to the woman you love. Now think about how you'd like to present the gift with the maximum impact. Will it be an unexpected surprise? How about a romantic setting? Be original. If you get it right, she'll remember it for a long time. - 15359
