When snooping under the tree, every woman hopes to find a little box with her name on it. From teens to grandmothers, jewelry probably tops her wish list. If Santa needs a little help finding the right gift, here’s some hints of what the lady in your life is secretly hoping to unwrap.
Mom
Being a fashionable mama means merging style and function. When your purse holds more crayons than lipstick, your new shirt has spit up on it, and you spend your days running little people to school and soccer practice, chic accessories not only look good, they can give a boost of confidence.
No matter how old they are, her kids are always close to her heart. A personalized necklace is the perfect way to keep them there. There are plenty of options to choose from, featuring birth stones, initials and names. The Anna Bee Layered Horizontal Name Necklace lets you put the name of each child on it’s own bar. However, shiny, dangling charms are pretty tempting to little ones. To keep mom from getting strangled, a personalized bracelet, like the Miriam Merenfeld Three Disc Initial Personalized Bracelet, might be a better choice.
Cigar band rings are another must-have for moms. They are hot enough that she’ll want to wear them every day, but the flat style keeps them from snagging and catching on things during her busy day. The Baroni Gold and Silver Textured Cigar Band Ring is fabulous for daily wear, while the Belargo Silver Cutout Cigar Band has plenty of sparkle for a elegant evening out and can be worn as a wedding band.
Teens
The teen years are all about experimenting with style and finding your own, unique look. This holiday season, enable her newfound love of fashion with some cook jewelry pieces. The best jewelry gifts for teens let her express her personality, require little care and are understated enough not to interfere with an active lifestyle.
Remember the iconic “Carrie” necklace from Sex In The City? The name plate look is back in a big way. Just like Carrie, she won’t go anywhere without her Danielle Stevens Sterling Silver Name Game Necklace. Just don’t tell her that her generation wasn’t the first to embrace this style.
Rope, leather and cord bracelets are another fun teen trend that won’t break the bank. Stuff their stocking with options like the Bee Charming Set of 12 Piano Wire and Hearts Bracelets and the Blu Bijoux Crystal Link Macramé Bracelets so that they can mix, match and pile them on. Plus, when fads change, Santa won’t regret an expensive purchase.
Grandmothers
One of the best things about aging gracefully is knowing your style and feeling comfortable with your own brand of refined fashion. For grandma, look for elegant, classic pieces in her most-loved styles and colors.
Pearls are a timeless choice that she is sure to love. She probably already has a classic strand, so think a bit outside the box for a unique look. For a fashionable take on the perennial favorite, look for freshwater pearls with slightly irregular shapes in colors ranging from champagne to black. The M Pearl White House Pearl Bracelet is elegant enough to be her new favorite.
She put in years of hard work raising babies, and now she is thrilled to watch her grandbabies grow. A piece personalized with her grandchildren’s names or initials is an excellent choice, but there may be too many to cram in there. A family tree motif, such as the Alisa Michelle Family Tree Necklace or the Belair Large CZ Tree of Life Necklace, honors her commitment to multiple generations.
