The fact is that we're guys and guys don't always know exactly what women want for jewelry. The good news is that thousands of guys figure it out and survive the jewelry purchasing ordeal daily. To get it right, you'll need to plan ahead. You can't wait until the day before.
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 determine what she may like, watch what your woman likes to wear. Take a peek in her jewelry box. Women usually have some very specific ideas about what kind of jewelry they link and want. Pay attention because details matter. The next time you visit the mall together, make it a point to visit some jewelry counters. Pay attention to what catches her eye.
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?
Where to start? Start by surfing the Web. Learn jewelry basics. Learn about different metals, and gems. Get a feel for prices. Locate some retailers in your area. Do you need a list of birthstones? Make notes. This information will be useful for future purchases.
It's important to choose the right gift, but don't mortgage the house to get it. Whether you buy online or from a local store, understand the return/refund policy. It may not be needed after the prep you've done, but it's better to be safe. Finally, buy from an established company. You'll know they'll be there for you later on.
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. - 17943
