Buying jewelry for your wife or girlfriend is one of the most romantic and thoughtful things you can do. You can be sure that your wife will love you for it. There's really nothing that matches the mystique and beauty of jewelry, when it comes to showing your devotion and love for your wife.
 
The only problem is that as a man, you probably know less about jewelry than you know about rocket science. Unless you are a rocket scientist of course, in which case you probably know even less than most about buying jewelry. Don't fret out though. There is no rule that says buying jewelry has to be an agonizing experience. Just follow these simple steps and you will be able to pick out just the thing for your wife.
 
Know what she likes
 
Your girlfriend or wife probably has some jewelry already even if she is young. The best way to figure out what kind of jewelry she likes is simply to watch what she wears when she wants to look really pretty. You can also try to sneak a peek into her jewelry box, but don't get caught with your hands in the cookie jar! If you do decide to look, you can also learn other valuable info, like what size ring she wears or how long her necklaces are.

 

 
Know her style and personality
 
Jewelry is an intimate thing for women. It's another way to showcase her lifestyle and personality. Classic gold and diamond earrings rarely disappoint and work for most styles. If your wife is a hopeless romantic, she will cherish a pendant or similar in heart shaped form. Charms are another way of personalizing your gift. You can get charms that match just about every unique profession, interest or hobby. That's another way of showing you care.
 
Ask around
 
By now, you should have some reasonable idea of the kind of jewelry she likes, but it never hurts to consult with her friends and family. They are very likely to know what she likes. Ask them if she sometimes mentions a certain piece of jewelry or what she looks at when she goes window shopping.
 
When you are ready to make your purchase, make sure to go with a reputable shop either physical or online. Go with a shop that has a good reputation and history. If needed, ask friends and coworkers for recommendation.
