Guys, Clueless About Valentines Day Jewelry Shopping?

Published by Art Barron under Diamonds

by Art Barron

If you're like most men, Valentine jewelry shopping for your girl can be a frustrating experience. What does she like? Where can you get it? How do you know that what you're buying is the right one? There are so many questions to ponder and there seems to be no straight answers!

Relax. It may surprise you to know that this is a problem that plagues so many guys out there.

Shopping for jewelry need not be a Titanic in your life. Here are some things to consider to help you along:

Do your homework, and find out her preferences:

Expensive and trendy doesn't always equal a bull's eye. Depending on the woman, there are some who like it small and discrete, and some who want it loud and fabulous. There are also those who like it formal and classy, and those who like it playful and experimental. Even the material can be preferred, such as gold, silver, copper, bronze, and pewter. And, oops, the stones! Don't forget the precious stones.

How to know what she likes? Don't rely on the store owner; he doesn't know your girl! Start by checking out what she wears often. Raid her jewelry box. Snap a picture of her typical get-up complete with jewelry and shows a copy to the saleslady. You can also ask her fashion-savvy best friend. If you can pull it off, accompany her as she window shops and observe what gems she gravitates to.

Design should be the first thing on your mind

Hearts are common this time of the year and they are always a good choice. They fit the occasion and they can be worn across seasons. A heart also symbolizes the feeling that goes with the gift. By choosing heart-shaped jewelry, you are sending your message of affection loud and clear.

Please do remember that you can choose not to buy heart-shaped jewels on Valentines Day. And, there are also some women who are not interested in wearing jewels with hearts on them. If you find that your girl is one of them, look for something else. There's plenty of flexibility when it comes to Valentines Day jewelry gifts. There's no obligation to stay with the concept.

Try picking out something that's useful like a pair of silver earrings that she can wear regularly. Or go for something that would represent your girl's personality like a violin pendant if she's into the musical instrument. You can even pick out a design that would share the story of your relationship together just like journey pendants that can be engraved with initials. The options are endless.

Look around

You don't have to buy from the first store that you find. The more stores you check out, the better are your chances of finding something that's a good match to her taste (and your wallet!). It's always a good idea to shop ahead of time; it gives you the liberty to be choosy.

Be limitless and don't just settle for shops in the malls. Go and search for antique shops, shop online, or look for family-owned establishments that create custom-made jewelry settings and art forms. While being on a budget, you can easily check out pawnshops as well. Try checking for family heirlooms to be resized or remodeled, as well.

Wherever you buy, make sure that your jewelry has a certification of authenticity. This will help ensure that what you are spending your hard-earned cash on is the real deal.

If all else fails, let it to those who know:

And who knows better than your girlfriend herself, right? You can always make it LOOK like you're not panicking and you don't know which one to choose. It's all in how you present it.

If you're worried about revealing your budget, befriend the jewelry store owner beforehand. Give your range and have him prepare a selection for your girl that she can view in a private room. It's actually romantic for the two of you to choose together.
