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.
Other than important occasions like anniversaries, the price tag isn't as important as some may think. It's the thought (and the preparation) that counts for most women. If you're still dating, a good general rule to follow is that the value of the gift should be based on how long you've been together. If you spend too much things can get awkward. If you spend too little you look cheap.
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.
